No, yet proteins as enzymes are completely responsible for their bio-synthesis and regulation.
The root source of steroids in their many forms is the cholesterol molecule.
No, they simply enhance the proteins in your body

steroid hormone
Some of the steroid hormones are produced by the adrenal cortex. Steroid hormones are soluble in lipids. Steroid hormones travel in the blood attached to the carrier proteins.
There are two other types. They are proteins and amines.
attach to specific transport proteins
No lysosomes do not make steroid hormones. Lysosomes are organelles that are found in the cells of animals. Steroid hormones are made by estrogen and testosterone.

No there are no carbohydrate hormones. It is a steroid

Steroid hormones are "lipophilic" (they are fatty molecules which do not dissolve in water.) They would not normally dissolve very well in blood. Proteins are "hydrophilic" and do dissolve in water. Transport proteins bind to steroid hormones and allow dissolution in blood; they also serve to keep most of the hormone molecules inactive until needed.
steroid hormones are hydrophobic and bind to transport proteins which bind to receptors within the nucleus. hydrophillic hormones bind to plasma membrane receptors and act through second messenger systems
The difference between amine and peptide hormones are:Amine hormones are from amino acids. Peptide Hormones are peptide bonds between multiple amino acids.
No lysosomes do not make steroid hormones. Lysosomes are organelles that are found in the cells of animals. Steroid hormones are made by estrogen and testosterone.
