Description
Estrogens are steroid sex hormones that predominate in the female body. Estrogen synthesis in women is carried out by the follicular apparatus of the ovaries. In men, these hormones are produced mainly by the testes (up to 20% of estrogens). The main role of estrogens is to ensure the normal development and functioning of the female reproductive system. In men, estrogens, among which estradiol predominates, participate in the fine regulation of prostate and testicular functions, as well as in lipid and mineral metabolism processes.
