--- We studied serum levels of relaxin in the 3 th, 4 th and 5 th month of pregnancy, women postpartum and newborns within the first 24 hours both at sea level as high altitude. The study was performed in 24 pregnant women (18 to 32 years) in the third, fourth or fifth month of gestation in (Cerro de Pasco, 4300 m) and 20 pregnant women of the same gestational age at sea level (Lima, 150 m). Also, we studied the serum levels of relaxin in 09 women and 09 newborns within 24 hours postpartum at the high altitude group and 20 women and 20 newborns within 24 hours at sea level. Relaxin was measured by RIA (Radioimmunoassay), using kits Immunodiagnostic Laboratories (Germany) labeled with I-125 and using the gamma scintillation counter computer in lab of the Institute of Clinical Research at the National University of San Marcos. The results indicate no significant difference between the hormone levels of relaxin in the 3 th, 4 th and 5 th month of pregnancy in women at high altitude and sea level, showing a gradual decrease in serum levels of 3 th to 5 th month both at sea level and at altitude. In postpartum women, levels of relaxin in serum were significantly lower in women at high altitude with regard to sea level. The radio mother relaxin / child relaxin is the same at high altitude as the sea level. Keywords: relaxin levels, pregnant women, postpartum, newborn
