A catechol estrogen is a steroidal estrogen that contains catechol (1,2-dihydroxybenzene) within its structure. [1] The catechol estrogens are endogenous metabolites of estradiol and estrone and include the following compounds: [ 1 ] [ 2 ]
Catechol. A catecholamine (/ ˌ k æ t ə ˈ k oʊ l ə m iː n /; abbreviated CA) is a monoamine neurotransmitter, an organic compound that has a catechol (benzene with two hydroxyl side groups next to each other) and a side-chain amine. [1] Catechol can be either a free molecule or a substituent of a larger molecule, where it represents a 1,2 ...

Primary and specific erogenous zones, in men and women. Diagram based on two systematic scientific investigations of erogenous zones. About 1500 English-speaking and French-speaking people completed two survey of 41 body parts, each rated for erogenous intensity.
Estrogen may explain why women have darker eyes than men, and also a lower risk of skin cancer than men; a European study found that women generally have darker skin than men. [40] [41] Lung function. Promotes lung function by supporting alveoli (in rodents but probably in humans). [42] Sexual Mediate formation of female secondary sex ...
Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT; EC 2.1.1.6) is one of several enzymes that degrade catecholamines (neurotransmitters such as dopamine, epinephrine, and norepinephrine), catecholestrogens, and various drugs and substances having a catechol structure. [7] In humans, catechol-O-methyltransferase protein is encoded by the COMT gene. [8]
