Estrogen dominance - Rejuvenate Hormone Clinic

What is estrogen dominance?

Estrogen dominance occurs when there is an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone levels in the body, with estrogen in higher concentrations relative to progesterone. This hormonal imbalance can lead to various symptoms and health issues.

Some key things to know about estrogen dominance:

• It often develops due to lifestyle and environmental factors that disrupt hormonal balance, such as:
  • Poor diet - high sugar, processed foods, alcohol
  • Stress
  • Exposure to xenoestrogens (estrogen-mimicking chemicals)
• Common symptoms include:
  • Bloating, water retention
  • Brain fog, poor memory
  • Depression, anxiety, mood swings
  • Irregular periods or infertility
  • Low libido
  • Fibrocystic breasts
  • Fat gain, especially around the abdomen and hips
• If left unchecked, estrogen dominance can contribute to more serious issues over time:
  • Endometriosis
  • Uterine fibroids
  • Some types of breast and ovarian cancers
• Progesterone helps balance out estrogen's effects in the body. Supplementing with bioidentical progesterone can alleviate estrogen dominance symptoms.
• Lifestyle changes are also important - improved diet, exercise, stress relief, and avoidance of xenoestrogens. Treatment may also include herbs that support hormonal balance.
