​​ Bloodwork tip: measuring E2

There are different methods to measure Estradiol levels, most of them were designed for women and in men they tend to give completely wrong results, today I am going to mention which methods will give wrong results and which ones will not.


Unsuitable methods.

Radioimmunoassay Chemiluminescence Immunoenzymatic assay Immunoradiometric

All of these methods would give erroneous or very inaccurate results.


Correct method

Ultrasensitive estradiol, measured by LC-MS / MS method.

This method would give a completely correct estradiol measurement.
