Estratetraenol is synthesized from androstadienone by aromatase likely in the ovaries, and is related to the estrogen sex hormones, yet has no known estrogenic effects.
Estratetraenol, also known as estra-1,3,5(10),16-tetraen-3-ol, is a hormon-like endogenous steroid secreted by women (urine, sweat) that has been described as having pheromone-like activities. Its effects are smaller than those of androstadienone but go in the same direction - it makes women to appear more feminine and enhances men's arousal.
