High estradiol after menopause is mainly related to ovarian pathology or abnormal ovarian function, and should be alerted to ovarian tumors, ovarian granulosa cell tumors, sex hormone producing tumors and other diseases.
Estradiol is the most active estrogen, and its main function is to promote female genital development, maintain female sexual function and female secondary sexual characteristics, and cooperate with progesterone to form the menstrual cycle. Normally, estrogen level will decline after menopause, and it is usually abnormal if estradiol increases at this time.
There are many reasons for high estradiol after menopause, mainly due to lesions or abnormal function of the ovaries, such as ovarian tumors, ovarian granulosa cell tumors, and sex hormone-producing tumors.
If estradiol is elevated after menopause, it is recommended that patients go to the hospital in time to complete the relevant examinations, clarify the cause of the disease under the guidance of a professional doctor, and target treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
