Estriol sulfate glucuronide explained

Estriol sulfate glucuronide, or estriol 3-sulfate 16α-glucuronide, is an endogenous, naturally occurring diconjugated metabolite of estriol.^[1] It is generated in the liver from estriol sulfate by UDP-glucuronyltransferase and is eventually excreted in the urine by the kidneys. It occurs in high concentrations during pregnancy along with estriol sulfate and estriol glucuronide,^[2] and was a component of the early pharmaceutical estrogens Progynon and Emmenin.^{[3] [4] [5]}
