Estradiol is an estrogen hormone produced in the ovaries and is primarily related to women's health and fertility. Through an estradiol test, you can get a better understanding of your hormonal balance and at the same time more knowledge about your fertility. It should be added that estradiol is also formed in the testicles of men, although in a significantly lower concentration.
Estradiol levels in the blood vary greatly during the menstrual cycle, with higher estradiol levels occurring during ovulation. During pregnancy, estradiol levels increase dramatically to support fetal development.
Estradiol is relevant to analyze because the hormone helps regulate cholesterol levels, maintain bone strength and improve your mood. Low levels of estradiol can cause symptoms such as vaginal dryness, hot flashes, difficulty sleeping and reduced sex drive.
