Do lipid soluble hormones travel in the bloodstream?

Yes, lipid-soluble hormones can travel in the bloodstream, but they generally do so bound to carrier proteins. Because they are hydrophobic, lipid-soluble hormones, like steroid hormones, do not dissolve well in water and therefore rely on these proteins to remain soluble and maintain their activity while circulating. Only a small fraction of these hormones exists in free form, which is the biologically active form that can interact with target cells.
