Hormones & Nutrients Found in Placenta
Estrogen, Progesterone, Testosterone - Contributes to mammary gland development in preparation for lactation; stabilizes postpartum mood; regulates post-birth uterine cramping; decreases depression; normalizes and stimulates libido
​
Prolactin - Promotes lactation; increases milk supply; enhances the mothering instinct
Oxytocin - Decreases pain and increases bonding in mother and infant; counteracts the production of stress hormones such as Cortisol; greatly reduces postpartum bleeding; enhances the breastfeeding let-down reflex
Placental Opioid-Enhancing Factor (POEF) - Stimulates the production of your body’s natural opioids, including endorphins; reduces pain; increases well-being.
Thyroid Stimulating Hormone - Regulates the thyroid gland; boosts energy and supports recovery from stressful events
Corticotropin Releasing Hormone (CRH) - Low levels of CRH are implicated in postpartum depression. Regulation of CRH helps prevent depression.
Cortisone - Reduces inflammation and swelling; promotes healing.
Interferon - Triggers the protective defenses of the immune system to fight infection.
Prostaglandins - Regulates contractions in the uterus after birth; helps uterus return to its pre-pregnancy size. Anti-inflammatory effects.
Iron - Replenishes maternal iron stores to combat anemia, a common postpartum condition. Increases energy; decreases fatigue and depression.
Hemoglobin - Oxygen-carrying molecule which provides a boost in energy.
​
Immunoglobulin G (IgG) - Antibody molecules which support the immune system.
Human Placental Lactogen (hPL) - This hormone has lactogenic and growth-promoting properties; promotes mammary gland growth in preparation for lactation in the mother. It also regulates maternal glucose, protein, and fat levels.
