Estrone (E1) Estrogen Blood Test

Estrogen Blood Tests included: Estrone (E1) Estrogen Blood Test

Estrone Blood Test Description:

Hormones are a chemical substance secreted by one tissue and traveling to another to affect other tissues in your body. They act as chemical messengers. Maintaining proper balance of these important “messengers” is key to optimal health. These sex hormones are involved in the growth, maintenance, and repair of reproductive tissues. But that’s not all. They influence other body tissues and bone mass as well.

Estrone is one of the three estrogens, which also include estriol and estradiol. Estrone is produced primarily from androstenedione originating from the gonads or the adrenal cortex. Estrone is relevant to health and disease states because of its conversion to estrone sulfate, a long-lived derivative. Estrone sulfate acts as a reservoir that can be converted as needed to the more active estradiol.

A decline in testosterone, with age and lifestyle, can have many men experiencing an increase in the levels of estrogen. The result is a testosterone/estrogen imbalance that directly causes many of the debilitating health problems associated with normal aging. The vast majority of men are surprised to learn that estrogen (a ‘female’ hormone) is also present in their bodies. It is produced in very small amounts as a by-product of the testosterone conversion process. In fact, balanced levels of estrogen in men are essential to encourage a healthy libido, improved brain function, protect the heart and strengthen the bones . . . high levels of estrogen can cause reduced levels of testosterone, fatigue, loss of muscle tone, increased body fat, increased risk of diabetes, heart attack or stroke, some cancers, loss of libido and sexual function (erectile dysfunction) and an enlarged prostate.

Why Do I Need This Hormone Blood Test?

To measure or monitor your hormone levels if you are a woman who has unexplained abnormal menstrual cycles, abnormal or heavy vaginal bleeding, infertility, symptoms of menopause, or any other hormonal alterations; fatigue, moodiness, low sex drive, loss of muscle tone, increased body fat. If you are a man who has unexplained hormonal alterations like fatigue, moodiness, low sex drive, loss of muscle tone, increased body and experiencing periods of not being able to get or maintain an erection (erectile dysfunction) and have questions about your fertility. If you are not experiencing any symptoms it is still prudent to learn what your baseline is, or what is normal for you, for future health and wellness.
