Estriol Total, Serum (E3)

In the treatment of patients, an estriol (E3) blood test is used to assess fetal discomfort and placental function. Estriol tests are used to monitor and screen for fetus problems in high-risk pregnancies [5].

Estriol Serum Test, E3, Serum, Pregnancy, Estriol, and Unconjugated Estriol are all terms used to describe the estriol blood test. One of the three primary estrogens is estriol. On the other hand, its levels are usually so low that they are undetectable in the blood. They are critical throughout pregnancy. During pregnancy, the hormone estriol rises.

Why done? 

Estriol blood tests look for signs of fetal distress and placental function in people who have problems like fetal growth retardation, pre-eclampsia, Rh immunization, diabetes, choriocarcinoma, and hydatidiform mole, as well as in healthy people. In hydrops fetalis, a dying fetus may raise the level of this substance in the body.
