Which organ produces estrogen and progesterone?

The ovaries produce estrogen and progesterone in women. Both play an important role in the menstrual cycle: estrogen stops FSH production and stimulates LH release by the pituitary gland. Progesterone maintains the uterus’ lining. Men also produce estrogen, though at lower levels, and this is done through changing testosterone into estrogen with an enzyme.

Ithink its because more have died recently than in the past.

Yes yes yes very good
