Brief Explanations

Estrogen promotes the growth of mammary gland ducts during pregnancy. FSH (Follicle - Stimulating Hormone) is mainly involved in follicle development in the ovaries and sperm production in males.

Progesterone is important for maintaining the endometrium during pregnancy but has a less direct role in mammary gland duct development compared to estrogen.

Estrogen
