CRH (Corticotropin-releasing hormone) does not directly cause uterine contractions. It primarily stimulates the release of ACTH from the pituitary gland, which in turn induces cortisol production. Cortisol plays a role in fetal lung development and can influence estrogen levels, but CRH itself does not directly cause uterine contractions.
