Abstract:
:Plasma levels of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, dehydroepiandrosterone and delta 5-androstenediol were measured in several women throughout pregnancy. The levels of both dehydroepiandrosterone and its sulfate decreased while those of delta 5-androstenediol did not. The levels of binding of the latter steroid to plasma proteins increased.
