Answer:

The correct answer is - Glucocorticoids.

Explanation:

Glucocorticoid is the type of hormones that are a natural anti-inflammatory agent that reduce the pain effectively for the period of the time. It is one of the potent anti-inflammatory hormones that can suppress the immune system.

It is one of the major drug prescriptions that is used to reduce the pain in joints in the case of arthritis. The prolonged elevation of these hormones leads to losing tissue sensitivity for these hormones.

Thus, the correct answer is - Glucocorticoids
