There are two female hormones, estrogen and progesterone, which are responsible for the various processes associated with the sexual characteristics in females. Both estrogen and progestrone are mainly produced in the ovaries along with a small quantity of testosterone (androgen â male sex hormone). The production and release of these hormones are regulated by other hormones in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) is secreted by the hypothalamus and acts on the anterior pituitary gland which responds by releasing follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH).
The term estrogen actually describes several different related hormones. These estrogens are estrone (predominant form during menopause), estriol (primary estrogen during pregnancy), and estradiol (which is the most common form of estrogen in non-pregnant women between puberty and menopause).strogens can be produced by fat tissue, the liver, the adrenal glands and the ovaries. The ovaries are the primary source of estrogens in premenopausal women, except for women who are pregnant.
