implantation (7 10 days)
- increase rapidly during earlypregnancy to a peak occurring 60 days post- conception.
- Decreased gradually to reachminimum level at term.

Human Placental Lactogen (hPL)
- Increased Progressively during pregnancy- Biologically, Similar to growth hormone- Affect carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
Estrogens
-
Biosynthesis by mother, fetus, placenta- Affect uterus and other reproductive organs.- influence carbohydrate, lipid, and bone metabolism

Progesterone
- rise progressively throughout pregnancy. - Progesterone relaxes smooth muscle, which
causes atony of the gastrointestinal andurinary tracts.
