What's this test for?

This test is ideal if you're experiencing mood swings, unexplained weight changes, irregular periods, or fertility issues. It measures even extremely low levels of estradiol, making it especially valuable for postmenopausal women, men checking hormone balance, or anyone with subtle hormonal symptoms that standard tests might miss. Many people use this test when they suspect hormone-related issues but need more precise answers than traditional testing can provide.

What happens after I get my results?

You'll receive detailed doctor notes in simple language explaining what your estradiol levels mean for your mood, energy, fertility, and overall health. These notes include personalized recommendations like dietary adjustments, lifestyle changes, supplement suggestions, or whether hormone therapy might be worth discussing with your doctor. You'll also get the standard lab report and can track your hormone levels over time using our trends feature to see how your interventions are working.

What's included in this test?

This test measures Estradiol using ultrasensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) technology. This advanced method can detect even trace amounts of estradiol in your blood, which is crucial because it can measure hormone levels that are too low for standard testing methods. It provides accurate insights into reproductive health, bone density, mood regulation, and hormonal balance in postmenopausal women, men, and prepubertal girls where estradiol levels are naturally very low.

When will I get my results?

Most results are available within 1-3 business days after your sample reaches the lab. You'll receive an email notification as soon as your results are ready to view in your secure online account. Complex hormone tests like this ultrasensitive estradiol panel may occasionally take an extra day for quality assurance.

Who should consider this test?

This test is particularly valuable for postmenopausal women tracking hormone levels, men experiencing mood or fertility issues, women with PCOS or irregular periods, and anyone on hormone replacement therapy who needs precise monitoring. It's also useful for prepubertal girls with delayed puberty concerns or anyone whose previous estradiol tests showed results too low to measure with standard methods.

What symptoms indicate I may need this test?

Consider this test if you're experiencing mood swings, anxiety or depression without clear cause, hot flashes or night sweats, difficulty conceiving, irregular or absent periods, unexplained weight gain, reduced sex drive, or bone density concerns. Men may notice low libido, breast tissue development, or fertility issues. These symptoms can all be related to estradiol imbalances.

How can I naturally support healthy estradiol levels?

Maintaining a healthy weight through balanced nutrition and regular exercise helps regulate estradiol naturally. Include phytoestrogen-rich foods like flaxseeds, soy, and legumes in moderation, along with cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower. Reducing stress through yoga or meditation, limiting alcohol intake, and getting adequate sleep (7-8 hours) all support hormonal balance.

What does low estradiol mean?

Low estradiol in premenopausal women may cause irregular periods, fertility issues, vaginal dryness, mood changes, and reduced bone density over time. In postmenopausal women, low levels are normal but may contribute to hot flashes and bone health concerns. In men, low estradiol can affect bone health, libido, and mood, though levels that are too high are typically more concerning.

What does high estradiol mean?

High estradiol in women may indicate ovarian tumors, pregnancy, or issues with hormone metabolism, and can cause heavy periods, bloating, breast tenderness, and mood swings. In men, elevated estradiol may lead to breast tissue growth, reduced muscle mass, fatigue, and fertility problems. High levels can also occur with certain medications or obesity, as fat tissue produces estrogen.

How often should I retest my estradiol levels?

If you're on hormone replacement therapy or fertility treatment, your doctor typically recommends retesting every 3-6 months until levels stabilize, then annually. For monitoring menopause symptoms or PCOS, testing every 6-12 months helps track changes. If you're investigating unexplained symptoms and initial results are inconclusive, retesting in 2-3 months during a different point in your cycle may provide clearer insights.
