- Unlike the ovaries and testes, which can synthesize their own androgen precursors, these sites are totally dependent on circulating androgens for conversion to estrogens - such androgens are produced by the adrenal cortex, ovarian stroma (especially in post-menopausal women with endometrial cancer, possibly mediated by LH and insulin) and testis Leydig cells;
- Estrogen produced at peripheral sites is probably only biologically active in local tissue - where the aromatase enzyme is produced to convert circulating androgens (ANDROSTENEDIONE in women) to estrogen in tissues containing aromatase, which include:
√ Adipose tissue (mesenchymal cells) – this is a major source of estrogen in men (also the brain) and becomes the major source in post-menopausal women; thus the amount of body fat significantly determines the amount of estrogen produced and stored; the breasts contain significant amounts of adipose tissue;

Hey breast growers, I've seen some pretty interesting research in my NBE travels, however imo the lastest info posted is what I consider close to the "The Holy Grail of NBE"
.
Stayed tuned!!..........the best is yet come!
