Hormone Imbalance: Who Should Get Tested for Estradiol (Oestradiol-17β)?

Hormone Imbalance: Who Should Get Tested for Estradiol (Oestradiol-17β)?

Are you experiencing symptoms that just don’t seem to add up? Many people in the UK live with hormone imbalances without realising that an oestradiol blood test could provide the answers you need.

What Are the Signs Your Oestrogen Might Be Out of Balance?

• Changes in your menstrual cycle frequency or flow
• Ongoing tiredness and sleep disturbances
• Mood changes, including anxiety or low mood
• Reduced sex drive
• Hot flushes and sweats outside menopause age
• Unexpected fertility problems

You might recognise just one or several symptoms. If they’re interfering with your daily life or have lasted more than a few weeks, testing could help give clarity.

What If My Results Are Out of Range?
