Product Description
Estrone Sulfate (E1S) is the most abundant circulating estrogen in non-pregnant women as well as normal men [1,2]. Estrone Sulfate is a major metabolite of estradiol and estrone, and has a longer half-life in blood [2,3]. In premenopausal women, estrone sulfate levels generally parallel those of estrone and estradiol, rising gradually during the follicular phase, peaking just prior to ovulation, with a secondary and smaller increase during the luteal phase [4,5]. However, Estrone Sulfate levels are generally 100 times higher than estrone and estradiol.
