Oestogen dominanceOestrogen is a perfectly normal, health-promoting hormone, which stimulates the growth of hormone-sensitive tissue in both men and women. Natural Progesterone is produced by the ovaries after ovulation, the adrenal glands and fat cells after menopause and this balances the side effects of otherwise unopposed estrogen. In women, oestrogen makes the lining of the womb (the uterus) grow every month, ready to receive a fertilised egg in the event of pregnancy. This oestrogen progesterone hormone imbalance (also called hyperoestrogenism) is relatively common in developed countries because of our typical unhealthy Western lifestyle, which encourages hormone-unfriendly hazards such as a poor diet, overweight and inactivity. Many women experience hormonal fluctuations. Most people have heard of Pre-menstrual syndrome and menopause, however few people realize that women between the ages of 30 and 40 experience hormonal fluctuations. This is now thought to be the major cause of breast cancer and uterine cancer in women, prostate cancer in men and contributes to many other diseases from pear-shaped obesity to osteoporosis.
