RESUMO

Estriol, estriol sulfate, progesterone, and 17 neutral steroid sulfates, including estriol precursors and progesterone metabolites, were determined in 27 cord plasma samples collected after pregnancies complicated by intrahepatic cholestasis of the mother. The levels of these steroids were compared with those in the cord plasma of 42 healthy controls.
