Plasma unconjugated 15alpha-hydroxyoestriol (oestetrol) levels in normal human pregnancy. 1975

A R Korda, and J J Challis, and A B Anderson, and A C Turnbull

Serial measurements were made of the concentration of plasma unconjugated oestetrol in normal human pregnancy. The mean curve and limits of normal variation have been established. Plasma levels rose from just below 2 ng/ml at 20 weeks to approximately 5 ng/ml at term.

D004953 Estetrol A metabolite of ESTRIOL with a 15-alpha-hydroxyl group. Estetrol can be converted from estriol sulfate or DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULFATE by the fetal-placental unit. 15 alpha-Hydroxyestriol,15-alpha-Hydroxy-Estriol,15 alpha Hydroxy Estriol,15 alpha Hydroxyestriol
D004964 Estriol A hydroxylated metabolite of ESTRADIOL or ESTRONE that has a hydroxyl group at C3, 16-alpha, and 17-beta position. Estriol is a major urinary estrogen. During PREGNANCY, a large amount of estriol is produced by the PLACENTA. Isomers with inversion of the hydroxyl group or groups are called epiestriol.
