An Estradiol (E2) blood test measures the level of the hormone Estradiol, also known as estradiol, in a blood sample. It is the primary form of oestrogen (also referred to as estrogen) and plays a key role in sexual development. Oestrogen is a group of sex hormones produced in both men and women, but at much higher levels in women. Estradiol (E2) is one of the four types of oestrogen—along with oestrone (E1), oestriol (E3), and oestetrol (E4)—and is the most potent and predominant form of oestrogen in women during the reproductive years. Estradiol levels provide valuable insights into ovarian function, aiding in the assessment of menstrual issues such as missed periods or irregular bleeding. Doctors may order an Estradiol test if puberty occurs earlier or later than anticipated. Additionally, this test can help identify damage or disease in the testes, ovaries, or adrenal glands. It is also used to monitor pregnancies or fertility treatments, and evaluate symptoms of menopause.
If you live in Bangalore and are experiencing issues related to abnormal Estradiol levels, schedule an Estradiol (E2) test in Bangalore today. This can help doctors identify hormonal issues early and begin treatment promptly.
The Estradiol (E2) test measures only a single parameter: the concentration of Estradiol in blood.
In women, most Estradiol is produced by the ovaries and adrenal glands, with additional Estradiol released from the placenta during pregnancy. It is also generated in other tissues, including the skin, fat, bone, brain, and liver. Estradiol plays a crucial role in the growth of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and vagina, as well as in breast development, body fat distribution, changes in the external genitalia, and the onset of menopause. In men, a small amount of Estradiol is primarily produced by the testes, where it helps prevent sperm from dying prematurely. Thus, an Estradiol/Oestrogen test helps in assessing and managing various conditions related to hormonal imbalance and maintaining overall well-being.
Consider the following points before scheduling an Estradiol (E2) test at home:
Prerequisites
Fasting is not required for the Estradiol test.
Best Time to Get Tested
The Estradiol test can be scheduled at any time of the day.
Who Should Get an Estradiol Test
You might need this test if your doctor suspects issues related to high or low Estradiol levels, such as menstrual problems or menopausal symptoms. It is also used to diagnose early puberty in adolescents and monitor hormone levels during assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment for infertility. 6
Cautions Before Taking an Estradiol Test
No special preparations are needed for the Estradiol test. 1 Your doctor might advise you to temporarily discontinue specific medications (such as birth control pills or hormone therapy) that could influence the test results. Always consult your doctor before stopping any medication.
Since Estradiol plays a crucial role in sexual development and reproductive health, the Oestrogen test may be ordered for the following reasons:
Assess how well the ovaries, placenta, or adrenal glands are functioning.
Evaluate abnormal development of male or female body characteristics.
Investigate the cause of missed periods, abnormal bleeding, or stopped menstrual periods.
Determine the cause of infertility.
Monitor a pregnancy or check a woman's response to fertility treatments such as ART.
Evaluate menopause symptoms such as hot flashes.
Monitor the effectiveness of hormone therapy in menopausal women.
Detect damage or disease in the testes, ovaries, or adrenal glands.
Diagnose early puberty in adolescents.
Monitor individuals with hypopituitarism (underactive pituitary gland).
Investigate problems caused by abnormal oestrogen levels such as gynaecomastia (non-cancerous breast tissue development in males), ovarian tumour, and breast cancer.
Note : Human sex hormones function closely with each other. So, an Estradiol test is often performed with other blood tests that measure the levels of luteinising hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), prolactin, testosterone, progesterone, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and free thyroxine (FT4). 5,6 The combined results help doctors gain a more comprehensive understanding of sexual maturation and reproductive health in an individual.
The table below provides the normal range for Estradiol levels in picograms per millilitre (pg/mL).
Estradiol Test | Normal Values (pg/mL) |
---|---|
Males | 5.37 - 65.9 |
Females (according to menstrual phases) Follicular Preovulatory Luteal Post Menopause | 26.6 - 161 187 - 382 32.7 - 201 5.37 - 38.4 |
