Which outcome results when defective uterine lining prevents implantation?

💡 Explanation

Defective uterine lining inhibits implantation; therefore preventing the blastocyst signalling via Human chorionic gonadotropin through paracrine signaling. The corpus luteum prematurely regresses because signal reception fails, resulting in a sharp drop in progesterone secretion rather than the alternative developmental surge.
