Explanation

Clomiphene targets estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen’s usual feedback signal in the brain. This prompts the release of hormones that stimulate ovulation, which is why clomiphene is used in infertility treatment. Prostaglandins and progesterone have different roles, while Paxil is an antidepressant.
