Estradiol cypionate (EC), sold under the brand name Depo-Estradiol among others, is an estrogen medication which is used in hormone therapy for menopausal symptoms and low estrogen levels in women, in hormone therapy for trans women, and in hormonal birth control for women.[14][8][15][16] It is given by injection into muscle once every 1 to 4 weeks.[14][17]

Side effects of estradiol cypionate include breast tenderness, breast enlargement, nausea, headache, and fluid retention.[14][8] Estradiol cypionate is an estrogen and hence is an agonist of the estrogen receptor, the biological target of estrogens like estradiol.[8][7] Estradiol cypionate is an estrogen ester and a long-lasting prodrug of estradiol in the body.[14][8][7] Because of this, it is considered to be a natural and bioidentical form of estrogen.[7][18][12]

Estradiol cypionate was first described as well as introduced for medical use in 1952.[19][20] Along with estradiol valerate, it is one of the most commonly used esters of estradiol.[21] Estradiol cypionate has mostly been used in the United States, but is also marketed in a few other countries.[22][23][24] The medication is not available in Europe.[25] It is not currently available as a generic medication in the United States.[26]

Springer Science & Business Media. p. 261. ISBN 978-3-642-60107-1. Natural estrogens considered here include: [...] Esters of 17β-estradiol, such as estradiol valerate, estradiol benzoate and estradiol cypionate. Esterification aims at either better absorption after oral administration or a sustained release from the depot after intramuscular administration. During absorption, the esters are cleaved by endogenous esterases and the pharmacologically active 17β-estradiol is released; therefore, the esters are considered as natural estrogens.
