Estrone (E1), estradiol (E2), and estriol (E3) are the three forms of estrogens produced by the body. The main difference between estriol and estradiol is that estriol is the strongest form of estrogen whereas estradiol is a weaker form of estrogen. However, estrone is a form of unhealthy estrogen that raises the risk of cancers.
