Estrogen is secreted by the "granulosa cells" of the ovarian epithelium present in the corpus luteum and ovarian follicles.

  • Estrogen is the "female sex hormone" which is the steroidal compound.
  • The main function of the estrogen is to develop female secondary sexual characteristics and maintain the reproductive system of female.
