Estradiol - Balanced Hormone Clinic

What is estradiol?

Estradiol is the most potent and predominant form of estrogen circulating in the female body. Estrogen is essential for the development and maintenance of the female reproductive system and secondary sex characteristics.

Estradiol plays a vital role in the menstrual cycle, pregnancy, and bone health in women. Some key functions of estradiol include:

• Regulating the menstrual cycle - Estradiol controls the growth of the uterine lining during the first part of the menstrual cycle. It causes the uterine lining to thicken to prepare for a potential pregnancy.
• Supporting pregnancy - High levels of estradiol during pregnancy help maintain pregnancy by promoting uterine and breast growth. It works together with progesterone.
• Influencing bone density - Estradiol helps regulate bone remodeling and calcium absorption. It prevents excessive bone loss in women. Low estradiol is linked to osteoporosis.
• Affecting other organs - Estradiol has effects on the brain, skin, liver, heart, and other tissues in smaller yet still important ways.
