This sensitive estradiol assay is designed for the
investigation of infertility, particularly in situations
where low estradiol levels can be expected. The analytic
range of the assay is appropriate for the assessment of the
low levels of estradiol typically observed in men,
prepubertal girls, and postmenopausal women. Estradiol
levels are useful in the diagnosis of precocious puberty in
females and along with gonadotropins can help establish the
cause. Estradiol levels in the prepubertal range can help
to confirm the diagnosis of delayed puberty in females.
