How do you manage Estrogen dominance naturally?

Let’s talk about it. 

Estrogen dominance is a condition in which a woman’s body either makes an excessive amount of estrogen or more commonly does not make enough progesterone to counterbalance her estrogen production.

Estrogen dominance can lead to symptoms of weight gain, bloating, irritability, and heavy menstrual cycles.

My patients or customers have found that supporting their hypothalamus nutraceutically can help to reduce symptoms of estrogen dominance. It balances estrogen and progesterone levels. Your hypothalamus communicates with your ovaries to control sex hormone production. When your hypothalamus is not functioning optimally, hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis becomes disrupted and ovulation is less likely to occur. Without regular ovulation, progesterone levels fall and estrogen becomes unopposed leading to estrogen dominance. 

Manage Estrogen Dominance Naturally

Using bioidentical progesterone in the form of Gen-Pro®, which is a transdermal cream can help to mitigate estrogen dominance symptoms. In a premenopausal woman, Gen-Pro® is used in the second half of the cycle. 

Research shows that decreasing body fat can reduce estrogen dominance as the majority of estrogen is stored in body fat. Limiting alcohol can help to reduce estrogen dominance as alcohol changes the way you metabolize estrogen, making it much more inflammatory and increasing estrogen dominance symptoms. Eating a healthy, high-fiber diet with little processed sugar and healthy fats, helps your liver to process estrogen more safely. Reducing your stress is also critical to managing symptoms as stress robs your ovaries of progesterone, increasing estrogen dominance. Reducing your exposure to xenoestrogens can help. 

Of course, supporting optimal hypothalamus function with Genesis Gold® helps improve hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian communication to balance your hormones naturally.
