Estradiol(Cat No.:I013886)is a naturally occurring estrogen hormone, primarily produced by the ovaries in females, and plays a crucial role in the regulation of the menstrual cycle, reproduction, and the development of secondary sexual characteristics. It is the most potent and prevalent form of estrogen in premenopausal women. Estradiol influences bone density, skin health, and cardiovascular function. It is used therapeutically in hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for menopause symptoms, as well as in managing conditions like osteoporosis, and in hormone-sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer, where its effects on estrogen receptors are targeted.
