The onset of degenerative joint diseases such as post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) are associated with joint injury, biomechanical changes, and synovial biochemical anomalies. Sex and reproductive endocrinology have been emerging as potential risk factors, with epidemiological evidence revealing that female's exhibit higher PTOA risk and poorer outcomes post-injury compared to males. Sex hormones, including estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone, have been shown to regulate inflammatory signaling in immune and synovial cells, yet their collective impact on injury-induced joint inflammation and catabolism is poorly understood.
