Tag: estrone

Estrone (E1): A type of estrogen. Estrone is secreted by fat tissue in addition to the ovaries. Estrone can be converted in the body to estrone sulfate and subsequently to estradiol. In this way, the body has a reserve of estrogen (estradiol) in an inactive form and the active form becomes available as needed.
