During pregnancy, the form of estrogen that predominates is produced by the placenta, and may be useful in prenatal screening is Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG).

Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG) hormone is only produced during pregnancy. It is produced predominantly in the placenta. Levels of the hormone hCG, found in the mother's blood and urine, rise greatly during the first month of pregnancy.

hCG can detect the pregnancy  ten days after conception. It is the earliest method to check the pregnancy.  It also helps to detect the correct age of the fetus and the problems related to the pregnancy like ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages etc.

Mariana [72]

The main function of <u>atrial natriuretic peptide</u> (ANP) is to reduce extracellular fluid volume by increasing renal sodium excretion.

<u>Aldosterone</u> is a steroid hormone, produced by the adrenal cortex, that is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system which helps to maintain blood pressure.
