Estradiol Blood Levels in Normal Menstrual Women

[Milestones]

Estradiol levels determined with liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) during the normal menstrual cycle in 30 women. Includes mean levels, upper limit of the 95% reference range (i.e., 97th percentile levels), and lower limit of the 95% reference range (i.e., 2.5th percentile levels). The colored horizontal dashed lines are the averages of all days for the mean, upper limit, and lower limit curves (~87 pg/mL, ~263 pg/mL, and ~31 pg/mL, respectively). The vertical dashed line is the mid-cycle luteinizing hormone (LH) peak, which corresponds physiologically to ovulation. Source of the values: (August 2019).
