    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    Steroid hormones secreted from peripheral reproductive endocrine tissues regulate many important physiological functions not only during development, but also into adulthood and play a key role in the growth, differentiation and function of reproductive tissues. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the biosynthesis, functions and health implications of steroids. Topics include cytotoxic steroids and derivatives in the development of anticancer drugs; identifying steroid hormones in biological and environmental samples; steroid receptors involvement in the pathogenesis of abnormal ovarian follicular cysts; oestrogen treatment after menopause to protect against dementia and cognitive decline; the evolving role of steroids in immunosuppression and transplantation; nasal steroids in adenoidal hypertrophy; and cytogenetic damage following anabolic steroids exposure.
