AMenstruation period

B14-15 days

C21-23 days

D5-7 days

Answer:

C. 21-23 days

Read Explanation:

  • Progesterone levels increase in the luteal phase, which help thicken the lining of your uterus.

  • The increase in hormones: Prepares your uterine lining for pregnancy by making it thicker.

  • The thick lining is the ideal environment for a fertilized egg to implant (attach) and a pregnancy to grow.

  • After the egg is released, the follicle left behind in your ovary releases a large amount of progesterone.

  • When you undergo Day 21 testing (approximately 7 days after ovulation), your doctor should see a surge in progesterone.

  • A high Day 21 progesterone level indicates ovulation and the release of an egg.
