Hormones are short-lived mediators. They do not last long. Blood is also broken down into components, filtered and processed. All one gets are the specific blood products desired: blood cells, FFP, platelets, cryoprecipitate and specific factors. On some occasions, usually with children, whole blood is used; however, there are no hormones present.

Hormones get denaured during storage if hole blood is transfused. Hormones are lost if target organs do not exist.
