Test Overview & Methodology

This advanced Total Estrogen Serum panel quantifies all oestrogenic fractions (E1, E2, E3) using gold‑standard LC‑MS/MS, replacing outdated radioimmunoassay. It measures total oestrogens to evaluate ovarian function, monitor hormone therapy, or investigate symptoms like menstrual irregularities, infertility, or menopausal transition.

Physician Insight & Safety Protocols

“As a clinician, I know that total oestrogen levels must be interpreted alongside age, menstrual phase, and clinical context; this test is a powerful tool for uncovering pituitary‑gonadal axis imbalances, but no number replaces a full clinical evaluation. Trust that our team will guide you through the meaning of your results with compassion and clarity. Always remember: your health journey is best navigated with your treating physician.” – Dr. Ajay Singh, General Practitioner, DHA License 36234132

⚠️ Medication Advisory

Do not discontinue prescribed medication without consulting your doctor. Hormonal therapies, oral contraceptives, or supplements can alter oestrogen results; always inform our phlebotomist of current medications.

🚨 Exclusion Criteria & Immediate Medical Attention

Exclusions: Patient unable to provide valid consent (Form 35 mandatory); sample drawn outside cold‑chain window; current acute febrile illness may interfere.
ER Red Flags (seek urgent care): Sudden severe abdominal pain, heavy vaginal bleeding, signs of deep vein thrombosis (leg swelling, redness, warmth), or acute visual disturbance while awaiting results – these symptoms are not related to the test but warrant immediate evaluation.

Patient FAQ & Clinical Guidance

1. What is this test used for?

This test measures total oestrogens to evaluate ovarian function, monitor hormone therapy, or investigate symptoms like menstrual irregularities, infertility, or menopausal transition. The first‑line diagnostic accuracy reaches 99.9% when combined with clinical history and other endocrine markers, making it essential for precise endocrinological assessment.

2. How is the sample collected and what preparation is needed?

A 3 mL (minimum 1.5 mL) serum sample is drawn from a single SST tube via our home collection service; the mandatory Test Send Out Consent Form (Form 35) must be duly filled. No fasting is required, but you must inform the phlebotomist of all medications and hormonal supplements. The sample is shipped refrigerated or frozen under ISO‑certified cold‑chain logistics; collection is scheduled between 8 AM and 11 PM daily.

3. When will I get my results and do I need a doctor’s review?

Results are typically reported within 2‑3 weeks after sample reception by the reference laboratory; a telephonic post‑clinical guidance session is included to explain your values in context. While our DHA‑licensed physicians provide interpretation, you must still follow up with your primary endocrinologist for a comprehensive management plan, as oestrogen levels can vary with cycle phase and medications.
