Answer:
The placenta also acts as an endocrine organ, producing several important hormones during pregnancy. These hormones work together to control the growth and development of the placenta and the fetus, and act on the mother to support the pregnancy and prepare for childbirth.

Answer:
What hormones does the placenta produce? The placenta produces two steroid hormones – oestrogen and progesterone. Progesterone acts to maintain pregnancy by supporting the lining of the uterus (womb), which provides the environment for the fetus and the placenta to grow.
