This blood test measures oestradiol (E2), a hormone commonly used to assess ovarian function in women and hormone levels linked to gynaecomastia in men. It suits anyone who needs a single, focused oestradiol reading rather than a wider hormone panel.
1 biomarker as listed by Blue Horizon Medicals.
Oestradiol (E2) is a single hormone marker, commonly used to assess ovarian function in women and to look at hormone levels linked to gynaecomastia in men. This is a narrow, single-purpose test rather than a broad hormone panel, so the clinical depth score simply reflects that it measures exactly the one thing it sets out to.
Against the other oestradiol tests we compare it with, Blue Horizon's £64.25 sits exactly at the group median: more than Forth's £40 and Medichecks' £49, but well below Better2Know's £175 standard test and £195 nurse kit. All five tests measure the same single marker, so price and collection convenience are the main things that separate them, rather than test depth.
Collection is by vacutainer blood draw or finger-prick sample, taken at a pharmacy location or via a nurse home visit, with results typically back within a day. The listing is clear about sample options and turnaround, and a doctor reviews your result, which supports the clarity and results scores. Trust signals reflect Blue Horizon Medicals' 4.2 Trustpilot rating from 395 reviews, UKAS-accredited partner labs, and more than 17 years trading.
This suits you if you want a straightforward, one-off oestradiol reading and are happy to attend a pharmacy or arrange a nurse home visit. If price is your main concern, Forth's Oestradiol Blood Test at £40 or Medichecks' at £49 are cheaper options for the same single marker. If you would rather avoid attending in person or arranging a visit at all, none of the peers listed here offer a self-collected at-home option either, so that trade-off is common across this comparison group.
You give either a vacutainer blood sample or a finger-prick sample, at a pharmacy location or during a nurse home visit; you choose your preferred option at checkout. The lab measures your oestradiol level, and a doctor reviews the result before your report is issued. Results are typically available within around a day of your sample reaching the lab.
This single-marker oestradiol test costs £64.25, sitting right at the median price for the oestradiol tests in this comparison group. It is pricier than Forth's version at £40 and Medichecks' at £49, but considerably cheaper than Better2Know's two oestradiol options at £175 and £195. All the tests in this group measure the same one marker, so the main differences between them come down to price, collection and turnaround rather than depth.
The listing publishes a short description, the full biomarker list, a stated turnaround, clear collection options, the sample type; it does not state what the report looks like.

Cheaper than most oestradiol tests, and home-collectable
Measures oestradiol, the main form of oestrogen, relevant to fertility, menstrual cycle changes, hormone therapy monitoring and symptoms such as hot flushes or low libido. A single-marker test suited to targeted hormone checks.
Cheapest oestradiol test we compare
A single-marker blood test measuring oestradiol, one of the three main oestrogen hormones, for tracking levels linked to your cycle, fertility or menopause.
The most expensive way to test oestradiol here
Measures oestradiol (E2), the main oestrogen hormone, useful for checking ovarian function, fertility concerns or menopause symptoms. A nurse visits you to take the blood sample rather than a self-collected finger-prick.
Cheaper than the nurse kit, pricier than rivals
Checks oestradiol (E2), the main oestrogen hormone, relevant to fertility, menopause and general hormone health. Sample is taken by venous draw at a clinic or during a nurse visit.
