The Proof Is In The Science The following hormones are found in the placenta Prolactin—promotes lactation Ocytocin--a natural pain-reliever, helps mom bond with baby, shrinks uterus to pre-pregnancy size TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone)--boosts energy, helps to recover from stressful events Interferon—stimulates the immune system to protect against infections Prostaglandins--stimulates involution of the uterus after birth and acts as an anti-inflammatory Hemoglobin--replenishes iron, which, when deficient causes anemia, a common postpartum condition Urokinase—stops bleeding and improves wound healing Gammaglobulin—immune booster that aids in protection against postpartum infection CRH (corticotrophin releasing hormone)--reduces stress
