Hii, 

The placenta is an endocrine gland that is only present during pregnancy.it produces hormones including :

  • human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)this is the  first hormone released by the placenta, 
  • progesterone,
  • estrogen, and
  •  human placental lactogen (hPL).

Hope this will help.
