ESTRADIOL

Estrogens are responsible for the development and maintenance of female sex organs and female secondary sex characteristics. In conjunction with Progesterone, they participate in regulation of the menstrual cycle, breast and uterine growth, and in the maintenance of pregnancy. Estradiol (E2) concentrations below 200 pg/mL following midcycle stimulation (hCG or follicle-stimulating hormone [FSH]) are associated with very low pregnancy success rates.

Estrogen Tests are used to detect a deficiency or excess in a woman and to help diagnose a variety of conditions associated with this imbalance. They may also help determine the timing of a woman’s ovulation and monitor the health status of the developing baby and Placenta during pregnancy. In a man, Estrogen testing may be performed to detect a hormone excess and its cause.

This test may be ordered to check:

• How well your Ovaries, Placenta, or Adrenal Glands are functioning
• If you have signs of an Ovarian Tumor
• If your periods have stopped (Levels of Estradiol vary, depending on the time of month)
• If male or female body characteristics are not developing normally

• A woman is responding to Fertility treatment
• Hormone Therapy is working for women in Menopause

• Unless otherwise directed by your doctor, there is no need for you to make any special preparations before the Estradiol Test. 
• Other blood tests can be carried out in addition to an Estradiol Test. If your doctor advises you to have multiple tests at once, they may ask you to fast for a specific period of time prior to a blood test.
• Drink adequate water before sample collection.
• Follow the preparatory instructions as guided by your doctor.

The Price of an Estradiol Test is Rs. 600. However, cost of the test may fluctuate depending on following factors:
