Are facial/bone structure and hormone levels related?

I unfortunately have a fairly masculine bone structure (long limbs, square and angular face). Does this mean that I have lower estrogen levels than the average woman or something?





I've been reading about hormone levels and attractiveness and it seems that its estrogen that gives women their ';feminine'; qualities such as rounder bone structure and softer features....as I don't have as much of these, does that mean I've developed abnormally?Are facial/bone structure and hormone levels related?
Facial structure and hormones are definitely related. Too much growth hormone, for example, can result in acromegaly, which typically involves a change in facial structure, such as enlarged cheekbones and heavier jaw.





I suggest you consult with an endocrinologist and have your hormone levels evaluated.
