Which hormone supports the process of RBC production as well as regulates the reproductive cycle in females?

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

According to NCERT, thyroid hormones (such as thyroxine) play an important role in the regulation of the basal metabolic rate and also support the process of red blood cell (RBC) formation.

In adult women, hypothyroidism may cause the menstrual cycle to become irregular, which indicates that thyroxine is involved in regulating the reproductive cycle in females.

Estrogen regulates the reproductive cycle but does not support RBC production. Adrenaline is an emergency hormone, and calcitonin regulates blood calcium levels.

Answer: Thyroxine
