Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Estradiol benzoate is an esterified form of estradiol that undergoes slow hydrolysis, providing prolonged estrogenic activity. It binds ERα/ERβ after conversion to free estradiol and influences reproductive and metabolic pathways.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in sustained‑release estrogen research, endocrine pharmacokinetics modelling, receptor‑activation assays, and reproductive‑biology applications.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include thrombotic risk, mood changes, breast tenderness and nausea. Handle with estrogen‑ester precautions.
