Estrogen dominance is when your body is subjected to excess estrogen like compounds usually from a source outside the body. Estrogen dominance can be reduced by supplementing with Bioidentical progesterone cream and by reducing your exposure to environmental toxins or xenohormones.
Not only do Progestins (synthetic progesterone) not relieve the symptoms of Estrogen Dominance, but they can actually worsen or even be the cause of the problems in the first place. The negative effects of progestins are exacerbated by the fact that they actually shut down your bodyâs production of its own progesterone. This is why when women use birth control pills, which contain progestins, they tend to gain weight, retain fluid and exhibit the other symptoms of estrogen dominance. An interesting fact about birth control pills is that the original research conducted to develop birth control pills were conducted with natural progesterone, but was later altered so that it could be patented.
