Estradiol (E2) Test is designed to accurately analyse and measure Estradiol (Estrogen) (E2) hormone levels in the blood. It is best tested together with Progesterone (Pg), as an imbalance of these two hormones is associated with significant symptoms of menopause and disorders of the reproductive system. (see Progesterone and Estradiol Profile).
Estradiol is a critical part of the sexual and reproductive function – acting as an anti-oxidant neuroprotective agent, and is known to be profoundly associated with bone growth. Estradiol is also suspected of playing a significant role in breast cancer and uterine endometrial lining.
