Ovaries

The common physiology of steroid hormones in the female reproductive system involves a hypothalamus, Pituitary gland, and Ovary. Hypothalamus that secretes gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), a pituitary gland which can be stimulated by the hypothalamus for secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) at regular intervals, an ovary that has both steroidogenesis for producing the sex hormones such as estrogen and progesteron, and a functional uterus that can be responded by these hormones and methodical enzymatic system. In addition to the above mentioned organs estrogen formation requires another P-450 aromatase complex as well as P-450 enzyme. The substrate can be either androstenedione for the production of estrone or testosterone for the production of estradiol. Journal of Steroids & Hormonal Science publish periodically and contain a series of articles in each published issue. Journal of Steroids & Hormonal Science is an official journal of OMICS Group International which is successfully running 700+ peer-reviewed journals and organizing over 100 International Science Conferences annually with the support of 30, 000 editorial board members. OMICS Group International signed an agreement with more than 100 international societies to make health care information Open Access.
