Changes in the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system in normotensive primigravidae in the four days after normal spontaneous delivery

Summary. Plasma renin activity, plasma renin concentration, plasma renin substrate, plasma angiotensin II and plasma aldosterone were measured in 10 true primiparae, normotensive throughout pregnancy, for 4 days after a spontaneous vaginal delivery. The concentration of all the measured variables, except plasma renin substrate, fell steeply over the first 3 days post partum. In four of the 10 patients, all components of the renin‐angiotensin system increased in concentration somewhat thereafter, although not to the levels of the first day post partum. There are multiple potential sources of renin in the fetoplacental unit and it is possible that this‘pregnancy’ renin may be capable of the partial suppression of the maternal renin production during pregnancy. The slight rebound observed in some patients may represent a hunting for re‐establishment of non‐pregnant values.
