The main function of the placenta is to :
allow direct exchange of blood between the mother and fetus for nutrition.
facilitate gas and nutrient exchange between the fetus and mother.
support the weight of the developing fetus in the uterus.
store gases and nutrients for later delivery to the fetus.
What is the role of Oestrogen?
Stops FSH being produced (so that only one egg matures in a cycle). Repairs, thickens and maintains the uterus lining. Stimulates the pituitary gland to release LH.
Causes an egg to mature in an ovary. Stimulates the ovaries to release oestrogen.
Maintains the lining of the uterus during the middle part of the menstrual cycle and during pregnancy.
Triggers ovulation (the release of a mature egg)
What is the role of LH
(luteinising hormone)?
Triggers ovulation (the release of a mature egg)
