Estradiol pivalate
Estradiol pivalate, also known as estradiol trimethyl acetate and sold under the brand name Estrotate, is an estrogen medication and an estrogen ester; specifically, the C3 pivalic acid (trimethylacetic acid) ester of estradiol.[1] It was marketed in the 1940s.[1] A combination of estradiol pivalate (1 mg/mL) and progesterone (10 mg/mL) in oil solution was available in 1949.[2][3][4] The duration of biological effect of estradiol pivalate in women has been studied.[5]
