The other major female hormone is progesterone. It allows ovum creation to be inhibited in the peak of the ovarian cycle. It’s the birth control hormone. I just got finished with the reproductive system in my Anatomy and Physiology 2 class. I’m a nursing major so I love your content guys!
I feel like estrogen is in itself a con 😅, veeeery low metabolic rate, bleeding is easier, injuries don't heal as fast affecting athletic performance. (like even with osteoporosis, estrogen wasn't reliable because it fades at menopause. I wonder why it's not the same with men.).. I mean.. I believe evolution and SEXUAL selection really shaped how estrogen affects women. Like if you read why women have to carry permanent breasts, unlike all other 5000 mammals, it's because of sexual selection (meaning the excess fat in the female chest is the result of what ancient male hominids selected.) Carrying permanent breasts can be a HUGE disadvantage for women and only feels good for the observer. Breast fat reduction reduces breast cancer risk by a staggering 95% according to business insider. and the list of horrible disadvantages goes on. Read what breast fat does to milk production according to the international consortium of milk genomics. Read how it makes it harder to run and engenders longer colds, weaker immune system. Weaker everything it seems 😅 and it's all because of.. how women were sexually selected to begin with. I mean, even the size of the human jaw decreased drastically after humans were accustomed to softer (more processed) foods. So imagine the changes that could've evolutionarily taken place in the female body after eons of being forced to be at home. The environment you're in, long term, really affects your biology. That's why men are stronger (have stronger pectorals). because they were the hunters. I envy anyone, man or woman, with a strong pectoral and honestly, don't like the way women have turned out because they're at a HUGE physical disadvantage because of sexual selection. They were physically remodeled by it way more than men ever were according to Psychology Today, which I find very disheartening and sad.
@@justinaacuriouswanderer1496 But I dont fully accept this idea. Every hormone has its role. If it did bring huge disadvantages it wont get selected. Estrogen facilitates higher cognitive power in brain in regions like cortex and hippocampus. This have women advantage over men interms of intelligence and brain usage or power. And your disadvantages are not worrying, I dont think it matters to nature. For example childbirth pain. Its a torture. But its a result of humans being able to walk on two legs. So if we walked on four limbs like our related primates, women wont have the nightmare labour pain, but bipedalism gave a greater amount of advantage, thus the pain continued.

I've had issue with periods over 11 years, pain being so unbearable I could pass out from cramps. It was after couple of different gynecologist checkups later, that I was told that my female hormones were lacking. I had absence of progesterone that is important during pregnancy, but also to reduce pain from cramps. Here I thought it was endometriosis, no it is lack of progesterone. I was given UID that included progesterone, and it gave me a chance to not pass out from period pain, in fact it made me almost forget I even had period.
At 45 breast cancer (her 2 pos) treatment trigerred an early menopause, so I know what the lack of estroge does to a body. 15 years later that little estrogen my body produced created another lump, this time estrogen positive cancer. Now I'm taking anastrozole that brings my estrogen levels to rock bottom. Happy days.
Once again, I feel like YT can read my brain and has gotten YTers to do vids I want. As a woman who has been having issues due to high estrogen levels, I've been digging for info like this.

Progesterone. But there's also other hormones in the body that effect our reproductive systems. Prolactin, which stimulates milk production. FSH stimulates the growth of ova, and helps regulate the menstrual cycle. There is also testosterone, which plays a role in the health of the vagina, menstruation, sex drive, and fertility in women. :D

Thank you for this informative video!
So can you guys do a series on birth control implants and the effects? I personally have nexplanon and it’s caused some horrible side effects but I think females need more education on products like these
As a trans woman I can confirm high levels of estrogen has caused me to grow full breasts, It has also caused my sperm count to drop to pretty much zero. Erectile disfunction only started to be a problem when I completely blocked out test from my body with spironolactone.
Medically, I'd be interested in learning more about what happens when people take hormones as part of the process to transition to the opposite gender.
@@aetherthetraveller1381 Besides the risks known as blood clots, the outcome for most transgender individuals is always positive. For those who don't transition, is ones that detransition due to societal pressure, don't transition due to physical health conditions, or because they don't have body dysphoria
@@DragonMaster-hp3kl do more research there are a lot more risks than just blood clots you have a higher chance of having a stroke, heart attack, heart problems etc.
Id love to know about polycystic overies, hormones related to it. Plus peri menopause. Also what is peri menopause and why one gets it younger (age like 35 give or take. I know some but id love to know more.
Awww, I was hoping there would be a section about the effects of hormones on trans people. It's been extremely cool seeing the effects of estrogen and progesterone on one of my mtf trans friends!

You know what would be cool? Adding two arrows indicating the body's spatial orientation when showing an organ. It would really help people see what's going on and where it's going on.
Very interesting, as always! I really enjoy your style of presentation. Thanks so much! 🤓😁 I am curious if you will ever do a video on blood & it’s role in the body? I have a Prothrombin 20210 Mutation, and can’t do HRT. It got me thinking about blood in general. Keep up the good work! 😎👍
It’s cool to see in the comments how diverse an audience this channel has - from medical students to everyone in between. I’m here as a registered body donor and seeing how cadavers help teach human anatomy and how they are treated, makes me happy I’ve made that choice. I’m learning a lot!
Estrogen also regulates cholesterol in the body too! Estrogen increases the good cholesterol and decrease the bad cholesterol which has a subsequent effect on both the cardiovascular system and the brain.
@@mango3134 Only something called Vitex, a herbal remedy. I was told I could try an IUD, but I'm waiting for testing to see if that would be an option, or if another chronic condition I have would make it too risky. I have an appointment later this week to see if there are other options.
I'm wondering if I should take it. I've been taking something to boost progesterone, but it's not working as well as it used to. I wish there was an easier way to know what's going on, as ultrasounds were normal, but I get bad pain, grow hairs on my chin, and feel miserable at certain times of the month, if I don't take anything.
@@MandoMTL I don't know what you mean, as hormone issues are very complex and take a lot of time to figure out. Especially where I've been dealing with issues ever since I first got my period.
The human female produces four types of hormones, estrogen, progesterone, leutenising hormones, and follicles stimulating hormone. As for your question about the two main hormones, I'd have to go with estrogen and progesterone, since LH and FSH is mostly produced and are mostly useful at pregnancy
Summary: Addiction happens because the body wants to be regulated. Its the most sustainable form of itself its trying to be. Long term exposure to stress makes it hard for people to 'feel good'. This is called andrenal fatique. A regulated body has no cravings for non-natural substances. People get deregulated all the time. Addiction is the consequence of using rituals or substance to make up for the deregulation consciously. Unfortunately addiction is often destructive because we do not control the consequences of using substances or rituals. Long story: One of the major physiological responses to addiction is andrenal fatique. It basically means: 1. Your body's circadian rhythms become so deregulated, the healing hormones (in this case, dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, melatonin and ultimately GABA) do not get released at the time where its needed, so any cortisol spike will persist and cause you to burn through your energy even while you're sleeping. 2. Your coping behaviour does not allow you to exit the stressful situation, which will cause you to associate the elevated stress with those circumstances. That is the leading reason why people will want to escape it (stress is so tiring!). Each time those circumstances would occur, you'll immediately go into fight and flight. Fight and flight is a state of mind where we're forced to deal with the immediate circumstances and process it deeply but quickly. Its one of the highest forms of stress, and extremely draining. The first signal our unconscious gives us to make us aware is called a trigger. It effectively means if you're uneducated in dealing with stress, you have NO way to exit this state of mind. The worst case scenario is that you'll go mad as nothing will make sense to you while you're in stress. You could say you're not even yourself at those moments. 3. Using the substance usually helps regulate some imbalance in hormones. It actually does work for a moment, until you're unregulated again. If it did not help in the first place, you would not be using it. The problem is that addiction gets you distracted to the alternative options that could help you regulate yourself with a substance or addicting ritual. However, what makes addiction so dangerous is that you get used to the unbalanced state of your body. You learn to work and complete your responsibilities with elevated stresses and the like. You'll even justify it saying you feel a bit driven by it. But you will not be able to explain the constant tiredness. You'll not be able to explain why there's a craving. This is because addiction is both physical and psychological. Just because your friends or family says its normal to be interested in certain substances or social events doesn't mean they're healthy for you. Just because socially you may be gaining so much, doesn't mean your brain is capable of dealing with all that hard draining work you're doing. In this sense, workaholism can be just as addicting as any other substance. The trick is not to try to avoid an addiction. The trick is to make it impossible to start or to have a sureshot way to deal with consequences. This may mean you have to let go of your own responsibilities and temporarily let someone else handle them for you, so you can recover. This is why an addict should go into rehab (and ONLY that reason); to regain control over the consequences they're responsible for themselves. Think about this: Without water, you'll not survive. Without a certain atmosphere (air), you cannot breathe and you'll not survive. If we do not get the right nutrients, minerals and vitamins to flush out toxins, we'll become regulated and we'll not survive. Addiction is nothing more than the naive regulation of a conscious mind trying to manually control a subconscious process. Could be any process that may be going wrong that will end deregulating you. But surely it'll happen. Will you grab a substance, a ritual or will you deal with all the consequences before you become addicted? Chances are you're addicted because you were incompetent in dealing with the consequences in the first place. Imagine if you realize this as an addict. It could be a strong reason to become depressed.
You should add different subtitles to teach other people about human body because not everybody knows English :) Btw you enlightened me a lot, so things make more sense than before. Thx

its depends on the enzymes,aromataze enzyme is responsible for estrogen and 5a reductase is for dht,those 2 hormones affect each other,dht have anti estrogenic action.
Need a session on what estrogen do to females height and bone tissue, this is the concept I've not understood lately but if you'll make a video, it will be helpful!!!
I would have liked if you'd also mentioned the fact that this is just a generalization and that men can produce varying amounts of testosterone and estrogen to other men as can be visibly seen by their sizes, features etc and vice versa with women. I think that explaining these anomalies will help stop the alienation and stigma against trans and intersex people by those who think of sex as strictly binary.
As a female...I've more amount of testosterone as well because of PCOD... And therefore leads to more hairy skin..and it pisses me off ๏︿๏ Keeping that aside...learning seems more fun to me now because of all the videos you upload 💜^_^

@The Yo I'm guessing it's for people who want a summary.
This is basically true for all hormones.
As mentioned in the video, excess or undersupply can have a negative impact.
I do wish they'd talk a bit more about the cognitive changes related to those hormones, they seem to skip that stuff
Is the estrogen supply cut off when you get a tubal ligation?
@The Yo Then go watch the video, why are you here?
"OUTTA WHACK"! My favorite technical, and medical physiological term in any realm of knowledge.
So can you guys do a series on birth control implants and the effects? I personally have nexplanon and it’s caused some horrible side effects but I think females need more education on products like these
That’s the one I’m on!! I personally love it but I know birth controls can affect women much differently
I’m on my 2nd year of the xulane patch.I’m interested on how it’s effecting my body besides preventing ovulation.
What kind of side effects you have from it?
Thanks for the great videos guys! Would you mind explaining how HRT (hormone replacement therapy) works? And the impact it can have on the body?
We have that on the list!
@@theanatomylab Thank you! That means the world to me, you have no idea. ❤❤❤
Oh yes, that would be great! ☺️
Yes this would be very helpful since I’ve been on HRT for a bit over a year and still don’t fully understand it.
@@theanatomylab I hope the video is a little more respectful of trans people than the comments you got brewing in here.
Progesterone was already mentioned 🤔 other than that there is liutanizing and follicle stimulating hormones!
Great video, easy to understand👍
As a trans woman I can confirm high levels of estrogen has caused me to grow full breasts, It has also caused my sperm count to drop to pretty much zero. Erectile disfunction only started to be a problem when I completely blocked out test from my body with spironolactone.

Can you do more science on the female anatomy I’d like to learn more about it
Medically, I'd be interested in learning more about what happens when people take hormones as part of the process to transition to the opposite gender.
That's my purpose for watching these types of videos too
That would be really interesting to learn!
I heard it's dangerous
@@aetherthetraveller1381 Besides the risks known as blood clots, the outcome for most transgender individuals is always positive. For those who don't transition, is ones that detransition due to societal pressure, don't transition due to physical health conditions, or because they don't have body dysphoria
@@DragonMaster-hp3kl do more research there are a lot more risks than just blood clots you have a higher chance of having a stroke, heart attack, heart problems etc.
Love the concepts behind your videos they are easy to understand and interesting... pls continue making videos like this... - science teacher
Id love to know about polycystic overies, hormones related to it. Plus peri menopause. Also what is peri menopause and why one gets it younger (age like 35 give or take.
I know some but id love to know more.
Great video as always! Are you guys planning on making a video about how memory works?
Thank you. The first video to do with memory will be Alzheimer's, but there will likely be more!
@@theanatomylab please make more videos , and thank for this video.
@@theanatomylab It's scary how Alzheimer's shrink the brain
Awww, I was hoping there would be a section about the effects of hormones on trans people. It's been extremely cool seeing the effects of estrogen and progesterone on one of my mtf trans friends! When you're a teen, it's not necessarily something you notice - but being older, the changes are much more apparent and fascinating
maybe because this channel is actually about health and not about mutilating your body
@@Endaretainer Awwww, did I make the wittle transphobe mad? ☺️

I love the way you teach 👏Cristal clear all concepts...
Is there a possibility of explaining epididymitis? I feel most young men & adult males don't hear about such a life threatening condition because men usually get it once in their lifetime sometimes twice.
Thank you for this free education!
Oh my. Thank you so much. I learned something useful. 😌 ❤
Love the way you explained everything so that everyone can understand. You would be q great teacher
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing and explaining this subject, in a very knowledgeable and professional way..
Your videos are beyond amazing! Thank you!
You know what would be cool? Adding two arrows indicating the body's spatial orientation when showing an organ. It would really help people see what's going on and where it's going on.
Progesterone, FSH, LH, etc.
Love this channel. So educational. My sister is a teacher. I send her every video after i watch it
Very interesting, as always! I really enjoy your style of presentation. Thanks so much! 🤓😁
I am curious if you will ever do a video on blood & it’s role in the body? I have a Prothrombin 20210 Mutation, and can’t do HRT. It got me thinking about blood in general.
Keep up the good work! 😎👍
You are amazing, I love your channel's content. Please keep up the good work and take care of yourselves! Love u! ❤️
"Estrogen does wonderous things to the human body" - ahhh you're the best, Jonathan :)
So grateful for your videos. Can't seem to get enough.
It’s cool to see in the comments how diverse an audience this channel has - from medical students to everyone in between. I’m here as a registered body donor and seeing how cadavers help teach human anatomy and how they are treated, makes me happy I’ve made that choice. I’m learning a lot!
As a med student, your videos are a god send
Always amazing.
Thank you!
Estrogen also regulates cholesterol in the body too! Estrogen increases the good cholesterol and decrease the bad cholesterol which has a subsequent effect on both the cardiovascular system and the brain.
Oxytocin: its release during intimacy and helps women with breastfeeding
I love the way that all most of their sponsors were always related to the contents of their videos..
Estrogen, progesterone,FSH,LH, oxytocin are female hormones, i think I have mentioned all female sex hormones 😅
Please check it Team 😊❤️❤️❤️
Great answer. We were looking for Progesterone.😂
@@theanatomylab 😅❤️
4:27 this drawing rekindles high school biology class memories
Progesterone! I've had issues with it being out of balance, so my doctor had to go over how both of them work.
Random question, did you get prescribed anything?
@@mango3134 Only something called Vitex, a herbal remedy. I was told I could try an IUD, but I'm waiting for testing to see if that would be an option, or if another chronic condition I have would make it too risky. I have an appointment later this week to see if there are other options.
@@jlbeeen alright, my mom has had a ton of imbalances with hormones and nothing is working on her, thank you!
I was science major in college so I know this stuff for a long time now. I still love your content.
the answer is Progesterone! :)
Great!
I'm from the commerce background but still addicted to the way of your expressing and teaching made me addict to your videos
What happens when there is too much estrogen and how does it affect the bodies of both sexes?
Man...i wish you made this last year when i had my exam and this was literally a question that stumpped me. XD
Great videos as always!!!
Progesterone! It’s the kind of birth control I use, and is just as amazing as estrogen.
I'm wondering if I should take it. I've been taking something to boost progesterone, but it's not working as well as it used to. I wish there was an easier way to know what's going on, as ultrasounds were normal, but I get bad pain, grow hairs on my chin, and feel miserable at certain times of the month, if I don't take anything.
@@jlbeeen You could just keep your legs closed.
@@MandoMTL I don't know what you mean, as hormone issues are very complex and take a lot of time to figure out. Especially where I've been dealing with issues ever since I first got my period.
@@MandoMTL literally what?
@@MandoMTL 💀
Amazing learning content, love this! Thank you so much!
You both are awesome.
Could you please make videos on spleen and lymph nodes.
Never question where this man gets his body parts
My whole graduate thesis is aromatase inhibitors 😃
The human female produces four types of hormones, estrogen, progesterone, leutenising hormones, and follicles stimulating hormone. As for your question about the two main hormones, I'd have to go with estrogen and progesterone, since LH and FSH is mostly produced and are mostly useful at pregnancy
I'd love to watch a video on what happens inside human body when the person is addicted or getting addicted to something.. be it alcohol or cigg
Summary:
Addiction happens because the body wants to be regulated. Its the most sustainable form of itself its trying to be. Long term exposure to stress makes it hard for people to 'feel good'. This is called andrenal fatique. A regulated body has no cravings for non-natural substances.
People get deregulated all the time. Addiction is the consequence of using rituals or substance to make up for the deregulation consciously. Unfortunately addiction is often destructive because we do not control the consequences of using substances or rituals.
Long story:
One of the major physiological responses to addiction is andrenal fatique. It basically means:
1. Your body's circadian rhythms become so deregulated, the healing hormones (in this case, dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin, melatonin and ultimately GABA) do not get released at the time where its needed, so any cortisol spike will persist and cause you to burn through your energy even while you're sleeping.
2. Your coping behaviour does not allow you to exit the stressful situation, which will cause you to associate the elevated stress with those circumstances. That is the leading reason why people will want to escape it (stress is so tiring!). Each time those circumstances would occur, you'll immediately go into fight and flight. Fight and flight is a state of mind where we're forced to deal with the immediate circumstances and process it deeply but quickly. Its one of the highest forms of stress, and extremely draining. The first signal our unconscious gives us to make us aware is called a trigger. It effectively means if you're uneducated in dealing with stress, you have NO way to exit this state of mind. The worst case scenario is that you'll go mad as nothing will make sense to you while you're in stress. You could say you're not even yourself at those moments.
3. Using the substance usually helps regulate some imbalance in hormones. It actually does work for a moment, until you're unregulated again. If it did not help in the first place, you would not be using it. The problem is that addiction gets you distracted to the alternative options that could help you regulate yourself with a substance or addicting ritual.
However, what makes addiction so dangerous is that you get used to the unbalanced state of your body. You learn to work and complete your responsibilities with elevated stresses and the like. You'll even justify it saying you feel a bit driven by it. But you will not be able to explain the constant tiredness. You'll not be able to explain why there's a craving. This is because addiction is both physical and psychological.
Just because your friends or family says its normal to be interested in certain substances or social events doesn't mean they're healthy for you. Just because socially you may be gaining so much, doesn't mean your brain is capable of dealing with all that hard draining work you're doing. In this sense, workaholism can be just as addicting as any other substance.
The trick is not to try to avoid an addiction. The trick is to make it impossible to start or to have a sureshot way to deal with consequences. This may mean you have to let go of your own responsibilities and temporarily let someone else handle them for you, so you can recover. This is why an addict should go into rehab (and ONLY that reason); to regain control over the consequences they're responsible for themselves.
Think about this: Without water, you'll not survive. Without a certain atmosphere (air), you cannot breathe and you'll not survive. If we do not get the right nutrients, minerals and vitamins to flush out toxins, we'll become regulated and we'll not survive.
Addiction is nothing more than the naive regulation of a conscious mind trying to manually control a subconscious process. Could be any process that may be going wrong that will end deregulating you. But surely it'll happen.
Will you grab a substance, a ritual or will you deal with all the consequences before you become addicted? Chances are you're addicted because you were incompetent in dealing with the consequences in the first place. Imagine if you realize this as an addict. It could be a strong reason to become depressed.
@@msc8382 Very good explanation, that tells me alot. Thank you....
TY for raising or awareness & discussion of our estrogen, progesterone, testosterone & DHT buffet
Bro Explain about anabolic steroids
We have that on our video list! Stay tuned!
Great idea for these guys.
@@theanatomylab Explain full details bro it will be useful for bodybuilder and athletes. Thank you bro
@@Max-fx8hm if you want very in depth information look up "more plates more dates", he has great documentation on steroids and PEDs
Loved that you used a Harry Potter reference.
You should add different subtitles to teach other people about human body because not everybody knows English :)

That smell of decomposition , can never get it out of my head. Once you smelled it, it never leaves your memory.
Vet Med student here, post 1.5 years of anatomy. The smell sticks to the back of your throat like crazy. Especially the formaldehyde.
Progesterone. It is the pregnancy maintaining hormones.
❤ love all your shows! Very well done. I have learned much from each of them. Thank all of you very much! Hope y'all are making these for a long time to come!
How much (percentage) from Testosterone converts to Estrogen in males? And the same question, how much percentage converts to DHT from testosterone?
Only blood test can answer such questions (individuality is the answer)
its depends on the enzymes,aromataze enzyme is responsible for estrogen and 5a reductase is for dht,those 2 hormones affect each other,dht have anti estrogenic action.
Need a session on what estrogen do to females height and bone tissue, this is the concept I've not understood lately but if you'll make a video, it will be helpful!!!
My ex-girlfriend had a tumor and they took a picture of her ovaries. Still the weirdest nude photo I've ever received.
Progesterone, relaxin, hCG, LH( in males too), FSH(in males too)
Thank you for this xD
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
I was randomly recommended this video, but it was very informative
Can to much fat interfere with estrogen or testosterones levels?
This is the teacher that I want to have. He gets me excited
Sir, can you add Turkish subtitles?
We do have someone translating and doing subtitles for us. I'll look into Turkish.
@@theanatomylab that would be so nice
I would have liked if you'd also mentioned the fact that this is just a generalization and that men can produce varying amounts of testosterone and estrogen to other men as can be visibly seen by their sizes, features etc and vice versa with women. I think that explaining these anomalies will help stop the alienation and stigma against trans and intersex people by those who think of sex as strictly binary.
sex is binary
@Fk Yu What evidence bro?sex is binary in all mammals,birds,plants.
Hey! The answer to the question is Progesterone. Btw, I'm in 11th grade and watch your videos. They're awesome!
As a female...I've more amount of testosterone as well because of PCOD... And therefore leads to more hairy skin..and it pisses me off ๏︿๏
Keeping that aside...learning seems more fun to me now because of all the videos you upload 💜^_^
Highfive! I like to do bets with guys saying I have more leg hair than them and they don't believe me, I always win
Very interesting and enjoyable video Jonathan, i look forward to you and Justin posting these every week, Friday is IOHA new video day!
The second main female sex hormones is the progesterone
Great!
