the petuitary gland its the little one in front of your brain about the size of a pea i think
They are both steroid hormones.
Testosterone is a male hormone and has no influence in the development of breasts (mammary glands), estrogen the female hormone does,
Estrogen and testosterone share a common hypothalamic releasing factor. Estrogen is made in a woman's ovaries, and testosterone in a man's testicles.
The main hormones that are involved in puberty are testosterone for males and oestrogen (can also be spelt 'estrogen') and progesterone for females. These are released from a gland in the brain called the pituitary gland. Other hormones include follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH).
The most common hormones are Testosterone and Estrogen.
Estrogen and testosterone are classified as steroids. Estrogen and testosterone are present in both men and women, but at different levels.
The adrenal gland is associated with regulating sugar and salt levels in the body, as well as the production of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone.
Andosterone and Testosterone are secreted by the adrenal gland.
The answer is simple. Puberty causes sexual development. And puberty is caused by hormones. Those are your testosterone and estrogen hormones. Males and females all have testosterone and estrogen. Some more than others and some less than others. That all depends on your development while in your mother's womb. Estrogen causes females to develop breasts, and make your voice higher, and their monthly periods. Testosterone causes hair to develop in males and females. It also causes males to make their voices deeper, and help make their genitals grow. And testerone and estrogen are caused by a gland in your brain called the pituitary gland. When you hit a certain age, that's when your pituitary gland becomes active and releases these hormones to cause arousal and development. The pituitary gland also has ALOT to do with arousal along with testosterone.
The female equivalent of testosterone is estrogen.
The first hormone that starts the changes in boy boys and girls is called 'gonadotrophin releasing hormone' (GnRH). It is released by the hypothalamus (a part of the brain) and triggers the pituitary gland to release two hormones: Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH).
estrogen is formed by the granulosa cells of the follicle. Theca interna cells contain leutinizing hormone receptors that convert LH into testosterone. Granulosa cells contain testosterone receptors that convert testosterone to estrogen. These are the basic steps for the production of estrogen.
