Correct answer: B

The menstrual cycle is the scientific term for the physiological changes that can occur in fertile women for the purposes of sexual reproduction and fertilization. The secretory phase in the human menstrual cycle is also called luteal phase and lasts for about 13 days. During secretory phase, the endometrium prepares for the implantation of an embryo and the corpus luteum is active and secretes progesterone hormone.
