They disrupt the way your natural hormones function and create a condition known as estrogen dominance. In this article we will look at what they are, where they come from , how to avoid them and ways to detox environmental estrogen.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Estrogen Dominance<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Estrogen dominance, as the term suggests, is when there is too much estrogen in your system either from the way that your body metabolizes your own hormones or from environmental sources.\u00a0 It can affect men as well as women. Although men and women have the same hormones, estrogen, testosterone and progesterone, they have them in a very different ratio and they must be in correct balance for good health.<\/p><div id=\"thede-867373397\" class=\"thede-content thede-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-2337972821559110\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2337972821559110\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5013879607\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<h3><strong>Good Estrogen and Bad Estrogen<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Estrogen, actually a general term for three different forms of estrogen that are produced in your body, must eventually be broken down by the liver and excreted. They can go through one of two pathways.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The substance (metabolite) that is produced by one pathway is often called &#8220;bad&#8221; estrogen as it stimulates estrogen sensitive tissue and is linked with increased risk of cancer, lupus and symptoms of estrogen dominance. The second pathway produces a much weaker metabolite known as &#8220;good&#8221; estrogen. Too much of this however is linked to an increased risk of\u00a0 developing conditions associated with estrogen deficiency, such as heart disease, depression, and osteoporosis.<\/p>\n<p>A proper balance of the the two is the key to optimum health.\u00a0 It&#8217;s known that the metabolism of estrogen depends on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/diet-and-detox-2-keys-to-a-healthy-lifestyle\/\">lifestyle<\/a><\/strong>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/anti-inflammatory-diet-for-weight-loss-detoxing\/\">diet<\/a><\/strong>, your environment and genetic make up. However, genes can be switched on and off so you are not governed by your genes.<\/p>\n<p>In men estrogen dominance can contribute to prostate cancer and\u00a0 breast cancer. Yes, men suffer with breast cancer too! In women it can contribute to endometriosis, fibroids, polycystic ovaries, breast and cancer of the womb (endometrial cancer). So you can see how important it is to detox environmental estrogen.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Symptoms of Estrogen Dominance<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\nThere are many symptoms and conditions associated with estrogen dominance including:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Acceleration of the aging process<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Autoimmune disorders such as lupus erythematosis. thyroiditis, and possibly Sjoegren&#8217;s disease<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Breast cancer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Breast tenderness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Cervical dysplasia<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Early onset of menstruation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Endometrial (uterine) cancer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Fibrocystic breasts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Fibromyalgia (thought by some to be related to estrogen dominance)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Infertility<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Irregular menstrual periods<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Low sperm count<\/li>\n<li>Man Boobs (Gynecomastia)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>PMS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Premenopausal bone loss<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Thyroid dysfunction mimicking hypothyroidism<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Water retention<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Where does environmental estrogen come from?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>More than 60 substances, including dioxin, DDT, PCB and solvents have been identified as environmental estrogens or endocrine disruptors as they are also known.\u00a0 They have been produced by industrial, agricultural, and chemical companies and introduced into the environment in the last 70 years. They are everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>Shockingly, these hormone mimics can come from the food you eat and the personal care products that you use on your body.\u00a0 Common sources of these xenoestrogens are commercially raised beef, chicken and pork due to the hormones often given to the animals to produce rapid growth. They are also used to increase milk production in dairy cows.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related reading: <a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/which-organic-skincare-products-to-choose-when-you-detox\/\">Which Organic Skin Care Products Should You Chose When You Detox<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>They are in the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/detox-your-body-from-pesticides-with-lipid-exchange-detox-smoothies\/\">pesticides<\/a><\/strong> sprayed on your <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/organic-foods-vs-non-organic-foods-for-detox\/\">non organic fruit and vegetables<\/a><\/strong>, in the plastic containers that are used for food and drinks including styrofoam, in household detergents and cleaners,\u00a0 artificial scents such as air fresheners, garden herbicides and pesticides, and paints and solvents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related reading: <a href=\"https:\/\/thedetoxspecialist.com\/blog\/should-you-go-organic-when-detoxing\/\">Should You Go Organic When Detoxing?\u00a0<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year researchers in warned that 2 food additives they studied are estrogenic and could alter hormones.
