    The answer to this question as suggested is the corpus luteum that may cease production of progesterone too soon.

    Explanation:

    The corpus luteum refers to a temporary endocrine structure in female ovaries and is a part in the manufacturing of relatively moderate levels of estradiol and inhibin A, with high levels progesterone. It is the reminder of the ovarian follicle that has released a mature ovum during a previous ovulation.

    The problem that this situation suggests is that the corpus luteum may cease production of progesterone too soon.

    Explanation:

    The corpus luteum is a fundamental organ in fertility during the luteal phase. When it abnormally stops secretion of progesterone, several problems are produced; one of them is an irregular menstrual cycle. Another, and the most important one, is that the embryo cannot be properly implanted in the womb and therefore it doesn't allow a child to be conceived.
