SUMMARY The concentrations of luteinizing hormone (LH), progesterone, testosterone, androstenedione, oestrone and oestradiol in mixed umbilical cord blood taken from foetal calves during months 3 to 9 of gestation have been measured by radioimmunoassay. The levels of progesterone were low (compared with those in maternal plasma) and constant during pregnancy. There were large variations in the concentrations of androstenedione, oestrone, oestradiol and LH, with lower values found during months 7 to 8 of gestation. Significant differences (P < 0·05–< 0·001) in hormone levels between male and female foetuses were found for testosterone, LH, and the oestrogens during months 3 to 7, 3 and 4, and 7 and 8, respectively. No significant differences (P > 0·05) between sexes were found at any time between the concentrations of progesterone and androstenedione.
