a hcg
b progesterone
c lh
d estrogen
e fsh

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Hormonal contraception works by altering hormone levels to prevent ovulation, fertilization, or implantation. Progesterone (or progestin, a synthetic form) is a key component in nearly all hormonal contraceptives as it thickens cervical mucus, thins the uterine lining, and can suppress ovulation. hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) is related to pregnancy detection, LH (luteinizing hormone) and FSH (follicle - stimulating hormone) are involved in the menstrual cycle but not primary contraceptive hormones, and while some contraceptives have estrogen, progesterone - only options exist and progesterone is more universally present in hormonal contraception.

Answer:

B. progesterone
