Abstract
Plasma concentration of several estrogens (unconjugated estradiol and estriol, total estriol and estriol sulfate) and of the placental proteins hPL [human placental lactogen] and PAPP-C [pregnancy associated plasma protein C] were measured daily for 8 days in 9 subjects. The steroids showed coefficients of variation ranging from 14-21%. The proteins were much less variable (PAPP-C 5% and hPL 6%).
