Sound Familiar?
You could be
Estrogen
Dominant
Two Main Hormones
Estrogen
and
Progesterone
Estrogen
The primary goal of Estrogen is cell
growth and division. It grows good
cells and bad cells.
(The gas pedal--go, go, go!!!!)
Progesterone
The primary goal of Progesterone is to
balance out the Estrogen.
(The brake pedal---stop, stop, stop!)
First half of your cycle:
Estrogen grows a woman’s
endometrial lining and prepares for
egg implantation. It adds fluid and
tissue to the breast in preparation for
breast feeding.
Second half of your cycle:
After ovulation, progesterone
becomes the dominant hormone in the
body. (If a woman becomes pregnant,
she needs progesterone to sustain the
pregnancy. In fact, estimates are that
70% of first term miscarriages are
caused by low progesterone.)
It’s a balancing act!
If we lack sufficient levels of
progesterone to balance the
effects of estrogen then we can
experience the issues we
mentioned earlier.
Dr. Lee calls this
“Estrogen Dominance.”
How do we get out of
balance??
Dr. Lee lists four
Balance Blockers:
Toxic exposure
Stress
Poor diet
Use of synthetic hormones
Balance Blocker #1:
Toxic Exposure
“Xenoestrogens are false estrogens
(not found in nature) with toxic effects
on the human body.” ~Dr. John Lee
We breathe in, rub on,
and eat toxins everyday.
Petrochemicals
• Air fresheners
• Fabric softeners
• Scented perfumes
and laundry soap
• Personal care
products made with
petrochemicals
Meat Supply
• Most domestic farm
animals in the US
are injected with
Bovine Growth
Hormone, a type of
estrogen. We
ingest the
chemicals.
Hormones in our meat supply??
This growth hormone causes the
animals to grow rapidly and retain
fat and water. This increases their
market value.
“Unfortunately, we, as women, do not
increase our market value when we
retain fat and water.” Lisa Voorhies
Balance Blocker #2: Stress
Stress depletes the adrenal glands
and by itself can create imbalances
among all hormones. Stress affects
our bodies in a number of adverse
ways.
Balance Blocker #3: Poor Diet
We get too much:
• Processed foods
• Refined Sugars
• Carbohydrates
We don’t get enough:
• Vitamins and
minerals
• Vegetable Protein
• Fiber
• Healthy fats and oils
such as Omega 3
Balance Blocker #4:
Prescription Hormones
(Birth Control Pills and HRTs)
Synthetic Hormones are not natural to
your body. Drug companies purposely
make them different from natural
hormones so they can be patented.
Some hormones handed out by your
doctor can be completely man-made
and are found nowhere in nature.
How can I regain balance?
Limit your exposure to toxins. Eat
organic and limit petrochemicals in
your home.
As much as possible, reduce stress.
Take a few minutes to slow down and
relax.
How can I regain balance?
Supplement your diet with essential
vitamins and minerals, vegetable
protein, extra fiber and Omega 3 fatty
acids.
Use only bio-identical hormone
replacement and choose a non-drug
form of birth control.
