    This document summarizes key lipids (vitamins A, D, E, K) and steroid hormones (estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, mineralocorticoid, glucocorticoid). It lists their structures, functions, and deficiency disorders. Vitamin A is needed for epithelial tissue maintenance and bone growth. Vitamin D regulates calcium levels and absorption. Vitamin E regulates metabolism and cell formation while Vitamin K is needed for blood clotting. Estrogen and progesterone control female development and changes. Testosterone influences male characteristics and metabolism. Mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid regulate electrolytes and carbohydrate metabolism.
