CAS 4956-37-0: Estradiol enanthate
Description:Estradiol enanthate is a synthetic form of the naturally occurring estrogen estradiol, commonly used in hormone replacement therapy and in various medical treatments. It is characterized by its long-acting properties due to the enanthate ester, which prolongs its release and activity in the body. The substance appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder and is typically administered via intramuscular injection. Estradiol enanthate has a molecular formula that reflects its structure, which includes a steroid backbone with an enanthate ester attached, enhancing its lipophilicity and bioavailability. Its pharmacological effects include the regulation of the menstrual cycle, alleviation of menopausal symptoms, and support of secondary sexual characteristics. As with any hormone therapy, it is essential to monitor for potential side effects, including changes in mood, weight fluctuations, and increased risk of thromboembolic events. Overall, estradiol enanthate plays a significant role in endocrinology and reproductive health, providing therapeutic benefits while necessitating careful management.
