Purpose: To understand the differences in steroid hormone contents between goat and cow milk at different lactation stages. Methods: The contents of steroid hormones in goat and cow milk at different lactation stages were investigated using ultra-high liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). Gradient elution was performed using 0.5 mmol/L ammonium fluoride aqueous solution as mobile phase A and methanol as mobile phase B at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min, and the target analytes were qualitatively and quantitatively detected using an electrospray ionization (ESI) source in the multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) mode. Results: A total of 11 steroid hormones, 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, 17α-pregnenolone, epi-testosterone, pregnenolone, progesterone, androstenedione, testosterone, estradiol, estrogen, cortisol, and cortisone, were detected from goat and cow milk samples. At the early lactation stage, the contents of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, estrogen and cortisol showed significant differences between goat and cow milk (P < 0.05), and the contents of progesterone and progesterone showed extremely significant differences (P < 0.01); at the full lactation stage, significant differences in the contents 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, 17α-pregnenolone, androstenedione, and cortisone (P < 0.05), and extremely significant differences in the contents of progesterone and pregnenolone were found (P < 0.01); at the late lactation stage, significant differences in the contents of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, androstenedione, estrogen, and cortisol (P < 0.05) were observed as well as extremely significant differences in the content of 17α-hydroxypregnenolone, pregnenolone, and progesterone (P < 0.01). Conclusion: The differences in steroid hormone contents between goat and cow milk may be due to different pregnancy status.
