hormones

[the guy]

are hormones liquids or solutions?

[Mokele]

In the body, hormones are always in solution with the bodily fluids (which themselves are mostly water)

[the guy]

so are they solids when not in sloution?

[Paralith]

They are molecules that are either fat-soluble or water-soluble.

for more in depth overview.

 

Also doesn't hormones exist in gaseous state as well ( like pheromones can affect from long distance?)

[the guy]

but if you were to isolate a hormone would it be in solid, liquid or gas form. or any of these. or just two of these. if it's just two e.g solid and liquid please say which.

I expect they would have an oil-like consistency, but I've never handled one so I couldn't say.

well i assume different hormones are different. mostly oil-liquid like state... well oil is a liquid too

Well only liquid hormone iv seen (pictures, videos) is adrenaline (like when they use syringe to insert adrenaline directly into heart when heart fails).

Gaseous state is just evaporated liquid hormone - and possibly liquid at lower temperature/higher pressure.

 

there are basically two groups: fat soluble steroids and proteins (soluble in any body liquid?).

So hormones are not really liquid - more like liquid solution when mixed with something.

Still when you extract you get oily liquid or mix of some other liquid in body.
