What it measures
- Estradiol — The main estrogen measured; ultrasensitive methods detect very small amounts.
- Total estradiol — The overall amount of estradiol in the blood sample.
- Free estradiol (calculated) — The portion not bound to proteins, estimated from other results.
- Sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) — A protein that binds estradiol; sometimes measured to interpret free levels.
- Testosterone (total) — Often checked alongside estradiol when hormone balance is evaluated.
Preparation
No fasting is usually required. Tell your clinician about all medications, including estrogen products, as timing and dose can affect results.
