Question

What Is The Main Function Of Relaxin Hormone

Answer 1

Answer:

Relaxin is a hormone produced by the ovary and the placenta with important effects in the female reproductive system and during pregnancy. In preparation for childbirth, it relaxes the ligaments in the pelvis and softens and widens the cervix.

The hormone was later demonstrated to have a role in the softening, or ripening, of the cervix through collagen remodeling, allowing for smooth parturition. Relaxin is produced in the corpus luteum, the placenta, and the uterus in females, as well as in other reproductive structures; this varies by species.
