The three main classes of sex hormones are androgens, estrogens and progestogens, which play important roles in various physiological processes. In general, androgens are considered "male sex hormones", while estrogens and progestogens are considered "female sex hormones". Creative Diagnostics offers a comprehensive range of high quality hapten conjugates with matching antibodies validated for the in vitro quantitative measurement of sex hormone concentrations in water or biological fluid samples.

Androgens are an important class of steroid hormones that control normal male development and reproductive function. They have characteristic roles during male sexual differentiation, but also during development and maintenance of secondary male characteristics and during initiation and maintenance of spermatogenesis. Testosterone together with its potent metabolite, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), are the principal androgens in the circulation of mature male mammals.

Estrogens are an important class of steroid hormones that control the development of female secondary sexual characteristics. In premenopausal women, estrogens are produced primarily in the ovaries, corpus luteum, and placenta. The three majors naturally occurring estrogens in women are estrone (E1), estradiol (E2), and estriol (E3). E2 is the major product from the whole biosynthesis process and is the most potent estrogen during the premenopausal period in a woman's life. E1 plays a larger role after menopause. During pregnancy E3 is the predominant circulating estrogen in terms of serum levels. Though E3 is the most plentiful of the three estrogens it is also the weakest.

Progesterone, the most important and only naturally occurring human progestogen, is produced primarily in the ovaries. The hormone helps regulate menstruation, prepares the body for pregnancy, and aids in nourishing the uterine environment to support implantation of the fertilized egg, as well as growth of the placenta. Normal progesterone levels are also important for a normal body composition. Progesterone levels may be monitored through simple blood serum testing if necessary.
