		The function of hormones is to serve as a signal to the target cells; the action of hormones is determined by the pattern of secretion and the signal transduction of the receiving tissue.
		Hormone actions vary widely, but can include stimulation or inhibition of growth, induction or suppression of apoptosis (programmed cell death), activation or inhibition of the immune system, regulating metabolism and preparation for a new activity (e.g.
		Amine-derived hormones are derivatives of the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan.

	Hormone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hormone molecules are secreted (released) directly into the bloodstream; some hormones, called ectohormones, are not secreted into the blood stream, they move by circulation or diffusion to their target cells, which may be nearby cells (paracrine action) in the same tissue or cells of a distant organ of the body.
		The interaction of the hormone and the receptor typically triggers a cascade of secondary effects within the cytoplasm of the cell, often involving phosphorylation or dephosphorylation of proteins, changes in ion channels, or increased amounts of an intracellular molecule that serves as a second messenger (e.g., cyclic AMP).
		A recently-identified class of hormones is that of the "hunger hormones" - ghrelin, orexin and PYY 3-36 - and "satiety hormones" - e.g., leptin, obestatin, nesfatin-1.

		The gonads have two functions: to produce hormones (testosterone, estradiol, antimullerian hormone, progesterone, inhibin B), activin and to produce gametes (eggs or sperm).
		The term hypogonadism is usually applied to permanent rather than transient or reversible defects, and usually implies deficiency of reproductive hormones, with or without fertility defects.
		Examples of hypogonadism that affect hormone production more than fertility are hypopituitarism and Kallmann syndrome; in both cases fertility is reduced until hormones are replaced but can be achieved solely with hormone replacement.

		Without testes, no testosterone or antimullerian hormone are produced.
		As girls' ovaries produce no important body changes before puberty, there is usually no suspicion of a defect of the reproductive system until puberty fails to occur.
		Because of the inability of the streak gonads to produce sex hormones (both estrogens and androgens), most of the secondary sex characteristics do not develop.

		Two of these masculinizing testicular hormones are antimullerian hormone, a protein that suppresses female reproductive tract development, and testosterone, a steroid that promotes development of the male reproductive tract and masculine external genitalia.
		But the commonality in all of these systems is that a single hormonal signal, testosterone, induces the central nervous system to take on a male phenotype—in the absence of testosterone, the nervous system differentiates as a female.

	Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Inside the pelvis, the ovaries are normal and since they have not been exposed to testicular antimullerian hormone, the uterus, fallopian tubes, upper vagina, and other mullerian structures are normally formed as well.
		If this has begun, it may be advantageous to suppress puberty with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist such as leuprolide to slow continuing bone maturation.
		Continued monitoring of hormone balance and careful readjustment of glucocorticoid dose can usually restore fertility, but as a group, women with CAH have a lower fertility rate than a comparable population.

		Imbalance of hormones, pituitary tumors, excessive body weight or severe underweight can cause problems with the release of a healthy egg.
		The blood test, which measures levels of AMH, or antimullerian hormone, appears to be an indicator of ovarian reserve, or the number of follicles that are capable of maturing into eggs.
		He recommends using the test in conjunction with current assessments of fertility, factoring in age and using ultrasound to count the number of eggs in the ovary and measurements of reproductive hormones.

		Testosterone influences the persistence and differentiation of the male mesonephric (wolffian) duct system and anti-mulliarian hormone influences regression of the female paramesonephric (mullerian) duct system.
		All the gonadal hormones are made from the cholesterol molecule.
		Estrogens are steroid hormones that involve entry of the steroid into the cell, binding to a receptor, transformation of the receptor to expose a DNA-binding domain, binding of the steroid-receptor complex, bringing about the changes in the cell function.
