A single-marker blood test measuring oestradiol, one of the three main oestrogen hormones, for tracking levels linked to your cycle, fertility or menopause.
1 biomarker as listed by Forth.
Oestradiol is one of the three main oestrogen hormones your body produces, and levels are commonly used to look at reproductive health, your menstrual cycle and the menopause transition. This test measures oestradiol alone, so it gives a single reading rather than a wider hormone panel.
Among the four oestradiol tests we track, this is comfortably the cheapest: £40 against a group median of £64.25. Medichecks' Oestradiol Blood Test is the next closest at £49, while Blue Horizon Medicals charges £64.25 and Better2Know's options run to £175 and £195 for a nurse-collected kit. All four tests measure the same single marker, so the price difference does not reflect a difference in depth.
The value for money score is strong, reflecting the 38% saving against the group median. Collection is flexible across four methods, and results are reviewed by a doctor within 2 days. As with any single-marker test, clinical depth is rated as adequate for its narrow purpose rather than comprehensive.
This suits you if you specifically want to check your oestradiol level at low cost, for example alongside symptoms linked to your cycle or menopause. If you want a wider female hormone picture in one test, Forth's Menopause or Perimenopause tests cover oestradiol alongside several other hormones, at a higher price.
Collect your sample using an at-home finger-prick kit, Forth's AutoDraw device, a home nurse visit, or a venous draw at a partner clinic. The lab measures your oestradiol level, and a doctor reviews the result before it is released to you. Results are typically available within 2 days.
Priced at £40, this single-marker oestradiol test is the cheapest of the four we compare and 38% below the group median of £64.25. It includes a doctor review and results in 2 days. As a single-marker test, it will not give you a wider hormone picture.

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.
Mid-priced oestradiol test against its comparison group
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.
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.
