Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Estradiol cypionate is a long‑acting estradiol ester with extended release due to its hydrophobic cypionate side chain. After hydrolysis, it activates estrogen receptors to regulate transcription and metabolic signalling.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in long‑acting hormone‑delivery studies, ER‑binding research, reproductive‑endocrine modelling, and intramuscular depot‑formulation work.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include injection‑site reactions, thromboembolism, fluid retention and hormonal imbalances. Handle with long‑acting estrogen‑ester precautions.
