Test information

Estradiol belongs to the group of estrogenic steroid hormones and is one of the most common and active of them. It plays an important role in the regulation of the menstrual cycle and the functioning of the female reproductive system.

Estradiol is responsible for the development of female genital organs and secondary sexual characteristics and affects the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. It is considered the main sex hormone in women and is present in small amounts in men. It is one of the main estrogens in non-pregnant women. It is produced mainly in the ovaries, and additionally in the adrenal glands in women and in the testicles and adrenal glands of men. During the menstrual cycle, the level of estradiol changes throughout the month, rising and falling in concert with the stimulation of follicles in the ovaries by follicle-stimulating hormone, luteinizing hormone and progesterone, during the release of an egg and the readiness of the uterus for a potential pregnancy.

The level of estradiol is lowest at the beginning of the menstrual cycle, and its rise to the highest level just coincides with the release of the egg from the ovary (ovulation). A normal level of estradiol allows for proper ovulation, egg fertilization and pregnancy, as well as healthy bone structure and normal cholesterol content.
