estradiol
The urogential fold develops into
labia minora, urethra, lower vagina
, Testosterone
metabolized into estradiol in brain which
masculinization/defeminization reproductive brain circuity
Alpha-fetoprotein
Estradiol
- Estradiol production inhibits spermogenesis
- Estradiol released by the mature graffian follicle leads to rupture of the follicle
Inhibin
A protein hormone secreted by the gonads (ovary and testis) that primarily suppresses follicle-
stimulating hormone (FSH) production from the pituitary gland, regulating fertility and
reproductive function.
Androgren
A steroid hormones (principally testosterone and DHT) that regulate male sexual development,
puberty, and sperm production, while supporting bone health and libido in both sexes

They have at least one aspect that is more common in men than women and at least one aspect
that is more common in women compared to men
