This test measures the level of estradiol, the main form of estrogen, in the blood using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS-MS). The ultrasensitive method can accurately detect very low estradiol concentrations, which makes it useful when estradiol levels are expected to be low, such as in children, men, and postmenopausal women. The test is used to evaluate estrogen levels, particularly when very low or precise measurements are needed. It may be ordered to assess menstrual and reproductive issues, evaluate low estrogen states, monitor certain hormone-related treatments, or investigate early or delayed puberty. Because it is highly sensitive, it is often preferred when standard estradiol tests are not precise enough.

Guides about Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS)

Plain-English explanations of what this test measures and how it's done.

Infertility on TRT: What to Monitor
Testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) often lowers sperm production, because testosterone from outside the body tells the pituitary gland to cut back on LH and FSH, the two signals the testicles need to make sperm. The measurements used to follow this are a semen analysis, which is the direct measure, plus blood levels of LH, FSH, testosterone, estradiol and prolactin.
What is a semen analysis?
A semen analysis measures the volume of a semen sample and the number, movement and shape of the sperm in it. It is the main lab test for male fertility, and it is not a blood test: the sample is collected at a clinic or lab, or at home and delivered within 30 to 60 minutes. Blood-test ordering services don’t sell it, but they do sell the hormone tests often ordered alongside it.
What blood tests do bodybuilders track?
The blood tests most often discussed in bodybuilding and strength communities fall into four groups: hormones (total and free testosterone, estradiol, SHBG, LH and FSH), general health panels (CBC and CMP), heart and metabolic markers (lipid panel, ApoB, A1c, fasting insulin), and thyroid, iron and vitamin markers. Hard training changes some of these numbers by itself, which matters when comparing results over time.

Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS): common questions

How much does an Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) test cost without insurance?

The lowest self-pay price we track for Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) is $24.00 at Anabolic Insights, across 17 ordering services; the highest is $209.00. You pay the ordering service directly, and no insurance is involved. Prices were last verified on September 28, 2026.

Do you need a doctor's order for an Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) test?

No. Every ordering service listed on this page includes the physician order with the purchase, so you can buy Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) yourself and take the requisition to the lab. Your results come back to you — what they mean is a conversation for you and a clinician.

Where is the blood drawn for an Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) test?

At a Quest Diagnostics or LabCorp patient service center, depending on which laboratory the ordering service you pick uses. You choose the location and time after you order. LabTestCompare does not draw blood, run tests, or issue results — we only compare what each service charges.

Can you use health insurance for an Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) test?

No. Every price on this page is a self-pay price paid directly to the ordering service, and none of these services bill insurance. If you want Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) billed through your plan instead, that goes through your own provider — which is a separate route with its own cost, and worth comparing against the prices here.

Is this the same Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) test a doctor would order?

Yes — it is the same assay, identified by the same laboratory order codes: Quest #30289 and LabCorp #140244. Every price on this page is matched to that code, which is how we can say the services are being compared on an identical test rather than on similarly named products.

How long do Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) results take?

That is set by the laboratory rather than by us. Routine blood tests are commonly back within a few business days and specialized assays take longer; the ordering service states the expected turnaround for Estradiol, Ultrasensitive (LC/MS-MS) before you buy, and delivers the result to you directly.
