Estradiol Balance

Meaning

Estradiol Balance refers to the state where the circulating concentration of 17β-estradiol (E2), the most potent naturally occurring estrogen, is maintained within a physiological range relative to other sex hormones, particularly progesterone and testosterone. This delicate equilibrium is vital for bone density, cardiovascular health, cognitive function, and reproductive tissue integrity in both women and men. Deviation, such as estrogen dominance or deficiency, can manifest as significant clinical symptoms and increased health risks.
