How the level of a hormone which prevents menstruation remains high during pregnancy even after the corpus luteum has broken down?
Progesterone is the hormone that prevents menstruation and maintain pregnancy. It is initially produced by the corpus luteum. After the corpus luteum has broken down, the placenta takes over the production of progesterone from the 8th week of pregnancy until birth. Therefore, it is the placenta which keeps the level of the hormone (progesterone) high throughout pregnancy.
What happens after placenta is expelled from a woman's body?
After the placenta is expelled from the body, the uterus immediately begins to shrink down to it's pre-pregnancy size. The nurse will feel for the fundus, or top, or the uterus and measure how far it goes down quite often. The uterus should be rather hard as it is contracting to normal size, but it may become soft, or boggy, and the nurse will massage the uterus until it becomes firm. The placenta will be stored in the hospital lab for about 2 weeks unless there are no complications and the parents request to take it home with them, for whatever reason.
How do Dr remove placenta in phantom pregnancy?
If you are experiencing a placenta but no live baby, then a doctor will need to perform a D&C on you. It is effectively an abortion. They scrape down the insides of your uterus and remove all pregnancy related tissue. You will bleed for 1-2 weeks afterwards as if you have given birth and then your body will "re-set" itself and recognise you are not pregnant. This is a blighted ovum or possibly a molar pregnancy. Tis is not a phantom pregnancy, a phantom pregnancy is all in the mind.

While pregnant the lining does not break down because it is being used to support the placenta and fetus.

Is it safe to pull the placenta out from the heifer?
If you have never had a cow with a retained placenta, you should probably call your veterinarian and work with him/her on this. The answer is, it depends on how attached the placenta is. If the cotyledon/caruncle interfaces have all been broken down and the placenta is just "hung up" on one caruncle, then it is safe to gently apply some traction to the placenta to help it fall out of the uterus. If the placenta is still attached, it is very dangerous to pull on the placenta because it will rip, leaving some of the placenta in the uterus where it will likely set up an infection and could cause the heifer to become sterile. You can try to remove the placenta by very gently pulling down (towards the ground) on it - you should be using about the pressure you would use to pull three helium balloons toward you. If the placenta doesn't move, leave it alone - cows can take up to a week to completely pass the placenta and it doesn't seem to cause any permanent damage to the uterus. However, this cow should be watched for signs of milk fever (hypocalcemia, causes weakness and can be life-threatening), ketosis (negative energy balance, usually happens at 4-6 weeks after calving) and any signs of "ain't doing right (ADR)" such as lower feed consumption. A retained placenta seems to be an indication that something isn't quite right with the cow and these other problems are more likely in a cow that has retained a placenta.
