For females, estrogen is low until age 15 when it increases significantly before a significant decrease at age 65.

For males, estrogen starts high, decreases between 1 to 12 years old, then increases until they are 15 and stays steady for the rest of their lives.

For females, estrogen increases and plateaus or stays steady after age 11 until age 65, when it drops significantly.
