16β-Hydroxyestrone (16β-OH-E1) is an endogenous estrogen which serves as a metabolite of estrone as well as a metabolic intermediate in the transformation of estrone into epiestriol (16β-hydroxyestradiol). https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/22833517 16beta-Hydroxyestrone PubChem Hormonal Steroids Biochemistry, Pharmacology, and Therapeutics Velardo Joseph Thomas The Actions of Steroid Hormones on Estradiol-17β in Uterine Growth and Enzymorphology 1964 463–490 10.1016/B978-0-12-395506-7.50065-0 16β-Hydroxyestrone has similar estrogenic activity to that of 16α-hydroxyestrone. It is less potent than estradiol or estrone but can produce similar maximal uterotrophy at sufficiently high doses, suggesting a fully estrogenic profile.
