Vedclass · Answer

(C) $RU-486$ (mifepristone) is a synthetic steroid that acts as a progesterone receptor antagonist.It binds to progesterone receptors with higher affinity than progesterone itself,thereby blocking the action of progesterone.Progesterone is essential for maintaining the endometrial lining during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle.By blocking progesterone,$RU-486$ leads to the shedding of the endometrium,which induces menstruation and terminates early pregnancy.
