Prix régulier £185.00

Taxes incluses. Frais de port calculés à la caisse.

The Estrogen (Oestrogen) Profile Test (E1, E2 & E3) is a saliva test that measures the levels of three estrogen hormones: Estrone (E1), Estradiol (E2), and Estriol (E3) both in men and women. Here is a breakdown of the three estrogen hormones measured in the test:

  • Estrone (E1): This estrogen hormone is primarily produced after menopause, but it is also present in smaller amounts before menopause. It helps maintain bone density and overall hormonal balance.
  • Estradiol (E2): Estradiol is the most potent and prevalent form of estrogen. It is primarily produced during a woman's reproductive years and is responsible for the development and maintenance of female reproductive organs and secondary sexual characteristics. Estradiol levels fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle and decline during menopause.
  • Estriol (E3): Estriol is the weakest form of estrogen and is mainly produced during pregnancy. It has a protective effect on breast tissue and is important for maintaining a healthy pregnancy.

Key Features

  • Saliva-based Test: The test uses saliva samples to measure the levels of three estrogen hormones: Estrone (E1), Estradiol (E2), and Estriol (E3). Saliva testing is non-invasive and can be easily done at home, providing convenience and comfort.
  • Suitable for Both Men and Women: The test is designed to assess estrogen hormone levels in both men and women, as estrogen plays important roles in various aspects of health for both genders.
  • Hormone Balance Assessment: The test helps evaluate the balance of estrogen hormones in the body. By measuring the levels of E1, E2, and E3, it provides insights into potential imbalances and helps identify any abnormalities or fluctuations that may contribute to symptoms or health conditions.
  • Comprehensive Test Results: After the laboratory receives your sample, you can expect to receive your test results within 3-5 working days. The results present your hormone levels in graphical and numerical formats, making it easier to understand and interpret the data. Additionally, a Hormone Specialist PhD provides comments and analysis on your hormone levels, offering insights and recommendations for further actions.
  • Convenient Sample Collection: The test kit allows you to collect samples from the comfort of your own home. It typically includes everything you need for sample collection, ensuring a hassle-free process.
  • Suitable for Adults and Children: The test is suitable for individuals of all ages, including both adults and children, enabling hormone assessment across different age groups.
  • Long Expiry Date: The test kit must be used within 12 months after the purchase date, providing ample time for individuals to collect and send their samples for analysis.
  • All-Inclusive Price: The test kit includes a laboratory fee, meaning there are no additional costs or taxes associated with the laboratory analysis.

                                    Symptoms of male estrogen hormone imbalance can vary from person to person, and the severity of symptoms can differ as well. Here are some common symptoms that may be associated with an estrogen hormone imbalance in males:

                                    • Decreased mental clarity: Difficulty with focus, concentration, or experiencing cognitive fog.
                                    • Decreased muscle strength: Reduction in muscle mass, strength, or endurance.

                                                            Estrogen, also known as oestrogen, is a vital hormone involved in various aspects of sexual and reproductive function in both males and females. It plays a significant role in the development and maintenance of secondary sexual characteristics, regulation of the menstrual cycle, and overall reproductive health.

                                                            One of the key functions of estrogen is its role as an anti-oxidant and neuroprotective agent. It helps protect cells from oxidative stress and supports the health of the nervous system. Estrogen is also closely associated with bone growth and maintenance, playing a crucial role in bone density and reducing the risk of osteoporosis.

                                                            However, estrogen imbalance can have significant effects on health. High or low levels of estrogen can disrupt normal physiological processes and lead to various symptoms. Estrogen is also suspected to be involved in the development and progression of certain cancers, particularly breast and uterine endometrial cancer.

                                                            To ensure that estrogen hormones are properly balanced, it may be beneficial to consider an Estrogen (Oestrogen) Profile Test. By analyzing the levels of these estrogen hormones, the Estrogen (Oestrogen) Profile Test can provide valuable insights into hormonal balance and potential imbalances that may contribute to various symptoms. It is a useful tool for identifying estrogen-related issues and guiding appropriate interventions to restore hormonal equilibrium.
