I'm not sure about the other options, but I know Carvedilol is definitely not a suitable replacement for Estradiol. That would be like trying to swap out your car's engine for a refrigerator!

Carvedilol is a beta-blocker, so B) Labetalol seems like the most appropriate answer here. Both are used for similar indications, so it's a logical substitution.
