Why Take This Test?
Estradiol (E2) is a blood test that measures the levels of estradiol, a form of estrogen, which is the primary female sex hormone. Estradiol plays a crucial role in the regulation of the menstrual cycle, development of female secondary sexual characteristics, and overall reproductive health. In men, estradiol is also present in smaller amounts and is important for bone health and libido.
The test is commonly used to assess reproductive function, diagnose hormonal imbalances, evaluate fertility issues, monitor hormone replacement therapy, and assess conditions such as ovarian or testicular disorders.
