according to Bole's 13th Edition, that would be androgen.
Some gonadal adrenocortical hormones include testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone. These hormones are produced in the adrenal glands as well as the gonads (testes and ovaries), and they play key roles in regulating sexual development, fertility, and reproductive functions.
Yes, they will cause menstrual irregularities. Prednisolone acetate is an adrenocortical steroid product, long term use of this drug will disorder the hormones in body.
The ovaries develop from the gonadal ridges in the early stages of embryonic development. Specifically, they originate from the mesoderm layer and migrate to their final position in the pelvic cavity during fetal development. In females, this process is influenced by the presence of specific hormones and genetic factors that guide the differentiation of the reproductive system.
posterior pituitary gland
Production of hormone is usually "hormone specific " therefore inadequacy is determined by which hormone is not produced. Often the prefix hypo- is used. I.e hypothyroidism-no/reduced secretion of thyroid hormones. Hypoparathyroidism- abnormally low rate of PTH, and lastly hyposecretion ( chronic adrenocortical insufficiency)

Assidon's Disease
steroids (bile salts, vitamin D, sex hormones, adrenocortical hormones)
Gonadal hormones are those hormones that are actually released from the gonads (ex. estrogen, testosterone). Gonadotropins are hormones that CAUSE the release of gonadal hormones, gonadotropins are released from the anterior pituitary gland(tropin means "releasing" so gonadotropin is a gonad hormone releasing hormone) an example of this would be FSH-- follicle stimulating hormone.

Primarily the testicles; however, small amounts of testosterone are released from the adrenal glands.

also called primary adrenocortical insufficiency. In other words, some process interferes directly with the ability of the adrenal cortex to produce its hormones
