In the human female, menstruation can be deferred by the administration of:

1. combination of FSH and LH
2. combination of estrogen and progesterone
3. FSH only
4. LH only

Correct answer: combination of estrogen and progesterone

Solution

Estrogen and progesterone maintain the endometrium and prevent the hormonal drop that triggers menstruation. Giving them exogenously can therefore defer the onset of bleeding.
