Shemoneh Esrei Question

Question

If I took three steps at the end of my shmoneh esre and realized I forgot to say yihyu leratzon and so I say it and then say oseh shalom, is my shmoneh esre valid?

Answer

Shalom! 

Thank you for your question. 

Yes. Your Shemone Esrei was valid even of "Yehiyu L'ratzon..." was not said.
