Estrogen Dominance???

Estrogen dominance.

A condition that nearly every woman I know has suffered from, to some degree, at one point in her life.

A condition that most women don’t know they have (our readers tend to be more in the know because you read my emails!)

Yet, it’s a hormonal imbalance that can wreak such havoc in many women’s lives, including mine.

Here are some of the more common symptoms of estrogen dominance:

PMS and/or depression

Heavy bleeding or postmenopausal bleeding

Spider or varicose veins

Cellulite

Heavy periods

Breast cysts or ovarian fibroids

Irritability

mood swings, or anxiety

Headaches or migraines, particularly before your period

Fat around your hips

Thyroid nodules

History of thyroid cancer History of lung cancer

History of ER+ breast cancer

Bloating, puffiness, or water retention

Lumpy or fibrocystic breasts

Endometriosis

Fibroids

Gallbladder problems, or your gallbladder has been removed

Brown facial discoloration (melasma)

Water retention in hands and legs

Allergies

Estrogen dominance symptoms due to low progesterone:

Insomnia

Mid-night waking

Infertility

Miscarriages

Mid-cycle spotting

Anxiety,

restlessness

Mood swings

Hot flashes

Show me one woman who doesn’t have at least one of these symptoms!

Yet, Western / conventional / allopathic medicine has little to offer apart from birth control, invasive surgery (such as hysterectomy, thyroidectomy, mastectomy) and estrogen blockers that cause organ failure.

Here is the problem with estrogen dominance: When not managed, it can lead to many serious health conditions such as estrogenic cancers and make our lives a living hell.

The good news is that estrogen dominance is a highly manageable and reversible condition.
