Abstract

Currently, serial measurements of maternal urinary estriol excretion is the most reliable and well-defined index of fetoplacental function. However, there are technical and maternal factors which can cause a decrease in reported estriol values without an associated decline in fetal well being. A discussion of these various factors is presented and may explain some instances of seemingly spurious results.
