Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How can I know the standard values of estradiol after pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, estradiol (E2) is secreted by the ovarian follicles. Its main function is to promote the growth and proliferation of the endometrial glands in the uterus, as well as the development of female secondary sexual characteristics. The concentration of E2 in the blood is 48-52 pmol/L during ovulation, 370-1835 pmol/L during the ovulatory phase, and 272-793 pmol/L during the post-ovulatory phase. Low values are seen in conditions such as ovarian dysfunction, premature ovarian failure, and Sheehan syndrome.
