Difference between 2-Hydroxyestradiol and Estrogen

2-Hydroxyestradiol vs. Estrogen

2-Hydroxyestradiol (2-OHE2), also known as estra-1,3,5(10)-triene-2,3,17β-triol, is an endogenous steroid, catechol estrogen, and metabolite of estradiol, as well as a positional isomer of estriol. Estrogen, or oestrogen, is the primary female sex hormone.
