1. Estrogen is a Group of Sex Hormones

These sex hormones are crucial for both sexual and reproductive health. Men and women both have them, but in very different amounts.

2. Estrogen is produced in the ovaries and the adrenals

Estrogen plays a large role in puberty and development of secondary sex characteristics

3. Estrogen has a HUGE role in women’s lives

It is to do things like increase curves, make hair healthier, help to reduce acne, and regulate the part of the brain that is connected to sexual development.

It has very important jobs in the menstrual cycle of encouraging the growth of the uterine lining during the first part of the cycle and stimulating the production of fertile CM.

4. The root cause of estrogen imbalance can be many things

Like lifestyle, diet, toxin exposure, HBC, poor gut health, unhealthy BM’s, to name a few.
