Estradiol is one of the main hormones in the female body. Along with progestins, it regulates the menstrual cycle, and is also responsible for fertilization. In this article, we will give a table of estradiol standards in women of different ages, as well as describe the condition when it is overstrable or deficiency.
Estradiol: What is responsible for?
This hormone is often called a hormone of beauty, as well as femininity. The fact is that in boys and girls until puberty, the concentration of this hormone is at about the same level, in equal concentration in the blood. During puberty, girls have a sharp jump in the production of this hormone.
The influence of estradiol:
- Thanks to this, the form becomes more rounded, the chest increases, and the hips also become much wider than the shoulders. In addition, this hormone helps to deposit fat on the hips, as well as buttocks. Thanks to this, a woman with normal concentration of estradiol in the blood increases quite noticeably. The most interesting thing is that the level of this hormone in different phases of the cycle is not the same.
- To be more precise, then immediately on the first day of menstruation, the growth of this hormone is observed, it is gradually growing, and its peak is observed one or two days before ovulation. It is this hormone that is responsible for the growth of the mucosa inside the uterus. If the thickness of the mucous membrane inside is insufficient, then the zygote will not be able to implant and the pregnancy will not occur.
- Accordingly, the excessive production of this hormone, on the contrary, contributes to the growth of the mucous membrane inside the uterus and its uneven accumulation. This condition is called hyperplasia. After ovulation occurs, the concentration of this hormone falls, and gradually decreases with the approach of menstruation.
- It is worth noting that this hormone is produced mainly by ovaries, adrenal glands, as well as adhesive tissue. Therefore, very often people with obesity may have problems with conceiving a child. After all, a huge amount of estradiol prevails, which can interfere with the long -awaited pregnancy.

Estradiol - the norm in women by age: table
Usually this hormone is prescribed to take on the first or second day of the cycle or immediately before ovulation. These data help to find out how well the female sexual system works. Quite often, this hormone is handed over with testosterone.
Estrogen concentration:
- It is noted that the optimal ratio of estradiol and testosterone is 10: 1. The permissible value is 7: 1. If the estradiol is a fairly small ratio, is 6: 1 or less, we can say that testosterone prevails in a woman in a woman.
- In turn, this negatively affects not only the state of female health, but also appearance. In this case, a woman may begin to grow a mustache, hair is observed on the stomach, breasts, as well as buttocks. The voice may become rude.
- Judging by excess concentration, this is also not a good sign. The fact is that if estradiol is exceeded, some difficulties with conception may also be observed. In this case, a woman has endometrial hyperplasia, polyps, endometriosis, adenomyosis.
- The uterine fibroids and tumors can also be observed inside this female organ. This is due to the fact that when the hormone is exceeded, the mucous membrane grows inside the uterus very quickly, and it becomes much thicker than it is necessary for fertilization and normal bearing a child.

Estrogen: Influence on the figure of a woman
The concentration of this hormone is permissible to a fairly wide range, and depends on the characteristics of the woman’s body and physique. The most interesting thing is that even according to external data we can say about the state of health of a woman and the concentration of estradiol in the blood.
Peculiarities:
- Indeed, women with a type of figure of a pear, in which fat deposits accumulate in the thighs and buttocks, the waist remains thin, is really observed normal or increased concentration of estradiol.
- Closer to menopause and menopause, the concentration of this hormone falls significantly. Because of this, women may begin serious health problems. The fact is that when the concentration of this hormone falls in the blood, overweight is observed, a woman can sharply recover, and for no reason.
- In addition, dry vagina is observed, also a decrease in libido. Usually during the period of menopause, a woman often complains about dryness during sex, as well as the lack of sex drive. This is just due to the lack of estradiol in the blood.
- In addition to reproductive function, estradiol also affects the general condition of the body. The fact is that it destroys harmful cholesterol, and also improves the absorption of calcium in the body. Thanks to this, the bones become stronger. Indeed, often after menopause, women have osteoporosis, and the likelihood of fractures increases. This is all due to a decrease in estradiol in the blood.

Estradiol during pregnancy
As for pregnancy, estradiol in women in an interesting position increases. This is due to the fact that in addition to ovaries and adipose tissue, estradiol produces a placenta. Accordingly, very often this indicator is involved in the screening of pregnant women. Based on these tests, we can judge the pathology of the fetus.
If the value of estradiol falls, then you can judge a frozen pregnancy, or the threat of miscarriage. Gradually with the growth of the placenta and fetus, the level of estradiol rises, and reaches its maximum peak just before childbirth.

Why is the lack of estradiol dangerous and an excess?
Symptoms of a lack of estradiol:
- Bad mood, depression
- Significant weight gain without reasons
- Reducing the timbre of the voice
- The appearance of hair on the chest and abdomen, as well as buttocks, in the area under the nose
Many scientists drew attention to the fact that in women with a normal concentration of estrogen in the blood, even with its increased meaning, a good mood, a positive mood, goodwill. In women with reduced estradiol, the mood is not very good, depression is often observed.
How to take an analysis for estradiol?
Both increase and decrease in estradiol levels below or higher than these norms require a doctor’s consultation and treatment. In this case, it is impossible to use drugs that the pharmacist recommended. The fact is that in order to determine the lack or excess of estradiol, it is necessary to take tests. For this, blood is taken from the vein. At the same time, before delivery, it is necessary to come to the laboratory on an empty stomach, as well as in a few days to refuse alcohol, a huge amount of sweet products.
12 hours before the tests, you can not have sex. According to the test results, the doctor may prescribe hormonal drugs. Quite often, to normalize the menstrual cycle, combined oral contraceptives are prescribed. Herbal preparations, which are called phytoestrogens, can also be prescribed.

Preparations based on estradiol are prescribed before IVF. It is this hormone that stimulates the growth of dominant follicle, from which an egg comes out in the future. That is, if this hormone is not enough, the dominant follicle does not grow, respectively, there is no need to talk about pregnancy.
As for the reduced level of estradiol, the consequence may be diabetes. In case of exceeding the norm of estradiol, there may be polycystic ovary, neoplasms inside the uterus, hyperplasia. That is, excess, and a decrease in estradiol in the blood is not a norm, often leads to serious ailments.

Estradiol and sport
The fact is that estradiol is very often used by athletes. This hormone makes the muscles more elastic, and the figure is tightened. Estradiol also eliminates muscle sagging, makes them more solid, as well as pumped up. If you want to put yourself quickly, then doctors can recommend estradiol. But of course, only for a good figure we do not recommend taking a hormone, because it can significantly affect health, as well as a reproductive system. Among athletes, hormones are often practiced in order to make the body more hardy, flexible, and also increase the amount of muscle mass.
The most interesting thing is that estradiol does not help reduce weight, it only helps to more actively change fatty tissue to muscle. At the same time, if the amount of estrogen in the blood is low, then a woman can lose weight of her body, or rather, then lose muscles. At the same time, the body becomes quite thin, but the structure and texture of the fabric leaves much to be desired. Along with a decrease in weight and estrogen in the blood, sagging of the skin is observed. Therefore, it is impossible to lose weight correctly and well if the body has a low estradiol level.

Scientists have proved that with a decrease in estradiol in the blood, obesity or even diabetes mellitus is observed. The fact is that this hormone helps to reduce the amount of poor cholesterol in the blood, which can help increase blood sugar, and also contributes to obesity. That is, estradiol is able to split fat and make a woman more slender. Accordingly, women with obesity may observe an imbalance in the amount of hormones.
In general, it is very important to monitor hormones, especially women during menopause. In this case, it is often enough to drink some kind of laidis formula of menopause to establish a balance of the hormonal system, but all this, of course, must be done under the supervision of a doctor
When the menopause began, I decided not to self-medicate and not wait until everything goes away, I went to the doctor, passed all the tests, there were no testimonies to hormone therapy, I began to take Qimicifuga’s pills on the extract of the estate-like effect, and immediately immediately The flare became not so intense, began to get enough sleep again, my head stopped hurting.
