The sex hormones (androgens, estrogens and progesterone) and hormones produced in the adrenal glands. Adrenal gland hormones include the mineralcoritcosteriods and gluccorticosteriods. Steroid hormones have a few important functions in the body including water balance, sexual development and stress response.ater soluble hormones, however, act indirectly on target cells. Since the cell membrane has a lipid bi-layer, it is hydrophobic, or water fearing. This simply means that anything that is water soluble is not getting through.
