Hair provides an excellent approach for examining physiological responses. Food and hormone changes can be chemically analyzed to determine the steroid hormone levels. Some researchers suggested using testosterone and progesterone levels in the hair follicles to study nutritional profiles and population-level reproductive activity in humans. In this paper, you have to give a brief introduction to the hormonal system. Also, address the following questions: - How are steroid hormones incorporated into growing hair? - What are the functions of testosterone and progesterone?
