Estrogen dominance

What is estrogen dominance?

Estrogen dominance occurs when there is an imbalance between estrogen and progesterone in the body, with higher levels of estrogen relative to progesterone. This condition is quite common, affecting up to 50% of women over 35.

Some key signs and symptoms of estrogen dominance include:

• Irregular or heavy periods


• PMS symptoms like bloating, breast tenderness, and mood swings


• Fatigue


• Difficulty losing weight


• Fibrocystic breasts


• Headaches or migraines


• Depression or anxiety


• Low libido


• Brain fog

There are a few potential causes of this hormonal imbalance:

• Exposure to xenoestrogens (estrogen-mimicking compounds) in foods, plastics, cosmetics, etc.


• Chronic stress depleting progesterone levels


• Perimenopause and shifting hormone levels


• Use of hormonal birth control methods

To treat and prevent estrogen dominance, there are some helpful lifestyle changes you can make:

• Reduce exposure to xenoestrogens


• Follow an anti-inflammatory diet


• Manage stress through yoga, meditation, etc.


• Consider natural progesterone cream or supplements
