Estradiol Synthesis Theca Cells & Granulosa Cells

The video explains the production of estradiol in females, focusing on the roles of feca and granulosa cells. It details how luteinizing hormone influences feca cells to synthesize androstenedione, which is then converted to testosterone and estradiol by granulosa cells. Estradiol's effects on the body, including its role in folliculogenesis and breast development, are discussed. The video also covers the clinical correlation between estradiol and breast cancer, highlighting the use of aromatase inhibitors as a treatment option.
