Comment[edit]

§16-hydroxylation of estardiol or estrone does NOT happen in the placenta as shown in the figure. Placenta lacks 16-hydroxylase. This hydroxylation happens in Fetal liver. It is excreted in urine in humans following passage of estrogens through kidney and is not a product of adrenals or ovaries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.165.126.12 (talk) 14:53, 27 July 2011 (UTC)Reply[reply]
