Name the primary placental hormones and their functions.

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify the primary placental hormones, which include human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), human placental lactogen (hPL), progesterone, and estrogen.
Explain the function of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG): it maintains the corpus luteum during early pregnancy, ensuring continued production of progesterone to support the uterine lining.
Describe the role of human placental lactogen (hPL): it modifies the metabolic state of the mother to facilitate energy supply to the fetus, including promoting lipolysis and reducing maternal glucose use.
Discuss the function of progesterone produced by the placenta: it maintains the uterine lining, inhibits uterine contractions to prevent premature labor, and supports fetal development.
Explain the role of placental estrogen: it promotes uterine growth, increases blood flow to the uterus, and stimulates the development of mammary glands in preparation for lactation.
