Antifertility drugs are used to prevent or reduce the chances of pregnancy. There are different types of antifertility drugs that work through different mechanisms. Some antifertility drugs work by inhibiting ovulation, which is the release of an egg from the ovary, and without ovulation, fertilisation cannot occur. Other antifertility drugs prevent fertilisation by altering the cervical mucus, making it difficult for sperm to pass through and reach the egg. Additionally, some antifertility drugs work by inhibiting implantation, which is the attachment of the fertilised egg to the uterus.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4) All of the above
