Answer:
Therapeutic Estradiol is a synthetic form of estradiol, a steroid sex hormone vital to the maintenance of fertility and secondary sexual characteristics in females, that may be used as hormone replacement therapy. Typically esterified, estradiol derivatives are formulated for oral, intravaginal, transdermal, or parenteral administration. As the primary, most potent estrogen hormone produced by the ovaries, estradiol binds to and activates specific nuclear receptors. Estradiol exhibits mild anabolic and metabolic properties, and increases blood coagulability. It may play a role in immune and inflammatory processes.
NCI Thesaurus (NCIt)
Estradiol is a naturally occurring hormone circulating endogenously in females. It is commercially available in several hormone therapy products for managing conditions associated with reduced estrogen, such as vulvovaginal atrophy and hot flashes. Some available forms of estradiol include oral tablets, injections, vaginal rings, transdermal patches, sprays, gels, and creams. When used for oral or IM administration, estradiol is commonly synthesized as a pro-drug ester (such as [DB13952], [DB13953], [DB13954], [DB13955], and [DB13956]). Because it has a low oral bioavailability on its own, estradiol is commonly formulated with an ester side-chain. [DB00977] (EE) is a synthetic form of estradiol commonly used as the estrogenic component of most combination oral contraceptive pills (OCPs). Ethinyl estradiol is different from estradiol due to its higher biovailability and increased resistance to metabolism, rendering it more suitable for oral administration.

17beta-estradiol is the 17beta-isomer of estradiol. It has a role as an estrogen, a human metabolite, an EC 1.2.3.1 (aldehyde oxidase) inhibitor, a Daphnia magna metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a 17beta-hydroxy steroid and an estradiol.
