This is an overview of the endocrine system physiology. I completely forgot to mention, my apologies, that steroid hormones are also slower in eliciting a cellular response than peptide hormones. Steroid hormone responses include transcription and translation and then a physiologic response while peptide hormones activate inactive secondary messengers that interact with enzymes that are already within the cystol. Steroid hormones also tend to stay bound to their receptors longer than peptides which is another reason why they are slower to be cleared
