Answer #1

In early stages of glucocorticoid therapy, increased bone resorption takes place along with decreased bone formation.

So option B enhances bone resorption.

Bone resorption actually starts on 14th day of Gonadotrophin treatment.

So option C enhances bone resorption

Hypercalacemia is due to the increased parathyroid hormone which leads to the activation of osteoclasts and thus enhances bone resorption.

So option D enhances bone resorption.

Except A , that is Estrogen therapy alone inhibits bone resorption, and all remaining enhances bone resorption.
