Hello,
Estrogen is used to modulate the hormone imbalance conditions in many of the gynecologist problems. The usual course time period is around 3-6 months depending upon the underlying pathology as endometrial hyperplasia or else. However, the endometrial biopsy and hormone levels in the blood that of FSH, LH and GnRH are of paramount importance to understand the basics of the root of problem and guide accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
