Read the following passage carefully and answer the question that follows:
During the menstrual cycle, the endometrium undergoes cyclic changes under the influence of hormones. Ovulation generally occurs around the 14th day of a 28-day menstrual cycle. After ovulation, the ruptured Graafian follicle transforms into a temporary endocrine gland known as corpus luteum. If fertilisation does not occur, the corpus luteum degenerates leading to menstruation.
Which hormone is mainly responsible for maintaining the endometrium after ovulation?
