Men/Women: Is Estrogen Dominance Wrecking Your Health?

By: Manny Aragon

We are surrounded by estrogens. We ingest estrogens. We make estrogens.  Men and Women both make and need a certain balance of estrogenic hormones inside of our bodies in order to keep things copacetic. When things go out of balance, life gets pretty wacky in a hurry.

Some of the most prevalent diseases today have at their root- estrogen dominance- or out of balance estrogenic hormones. Inside of our bodies we have both “good” estrogens and “bad” estrogens. The good estrogens promote health and balance. The bad estrogens are created when other hormones like progesterone and testosterone are converted thereby lowering the concentration of the very hormones that we need to keep things going well.
