Enter the progesterone and estradiol levels into the calculator to determine the Pg/E2 ratio. This ratio is used to assess hormonal balance in the body.

Pg/E2 Ratio Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Pg/E2 ratio.

Pg/E2 Ratio = Progesterone Level (ng/mL) / Estradiol Level (pg/mL)

Variables:

  • Pg/E2 Ratio is the ratio of progesterone to estradiol levels in the body.
  • Progesterone Level is the concentration of progesterone in the blood measured in nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL).
  • Estradiol Level is the concentration of estradiol in the blood measured in picograms per milliliter (pg/mL).

To calculate the Pg/E2 ratio, divide the progesterone level by the estradiol level.

What is a Pg/E2 Ratio?

The Pg/E2 ratio is a measure of the balance between progesterone and estradiol, two key hormones in the body. This ratio can provide insight into various health conditions and is particularly relevant in reproductive health, hormone replacement therapy, and the management of menopausal symptoms. A balanced Pg/E2 ratio is crucial for optimal health and well-being.

How to Calculate Pg/E2 Ratio?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Pg/E2 Ratio.


  1. First, determine the progesterone level in the blood (ng/mL).
  2. Next, determine the estradiol level in the blood (pg/mL).
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = Pg/E2 Ratio = Progesterone Level / Estradiol Level.
  4. Finally, calculate the Pg/E2 Ratio.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

Progesterone Level (ng/mL) = 15 ng/mL

Estradiol Level (pg/mL) = 50 pg/mL
