Greek to me.  English please

Estradiol (E2) levels fluctuate during a woman's lifetime and during her menstrual cycle. At around the time she is about to ovulate, estradiol (E2) peaks, reaching levels as high as 760 pg/ml (or 2,790 pmol/L, multiply by 3.671). If a woman becomes pregnant, E2 levels go even higher, as high as 75,000 pg/ml (or 275,000 pmol/L) at around the time she is about to give birth.

Hopefully clearer.

All;
I have blood tests every 6 months and I am due for another next month. At my last test my Estradiol (E2) showed 604 pg/ml, but previously it was 240 (12 months ago). Ideally my GP said he wants it above 260 pg/ml on a regular basis. I had the blood test done 2 hours after I took my morning dose. I take it twice a day at 10pm and 10am. My Testosterone levels on my last bllod test were 0.9. Since my last tests I have now commenced a nightly dose of Micronized Progesterone (Promethium) taken just before I go to bed. I am just starting month 3. I take it continuously, but from month 4 onwards I am supposed to move to a cyclical regime of Day1-15 Oestrogen only then Day 16-18 low dose of Progesterone + Oestrogen twice daily, then Day 19-30 double dose of Progesterone plus Oestrogen twice daily.

I will be having my next blood tests just as I finish my 3 months "trial" on the combined regime.

I do not take any T Blockers as my Testosterone levels have always been very low (for years).
