    I think that my estradiol was on the low end of normal. My hormone abnormalities are really high androgens, but the others are OK.

    I recently went to see an endocrinologist, and he knew so much more about what was causing my problems than any doctor I had seen before. If you think your results are odd or are not being considered enough by your doctor, you might want to consider seeing an endocrinologist.

    thank you for the answer, I was at an endocrinologist but he did not say too much about my estradiol level, maybe I have to go to another doc.

    Estradiol levels are low while you are mensturating and increase from there. I think PCOS sometimes causes low estriadol because it causes you to be anovulatory -> no follicles -> nothing to produce additional estrogen.
