with gender dysphoria
with transition, including use of puberty suppression (blockers) and cross-sex hormones (such
as testosterone and
estrogen).
In this report the American Council on Science and Health (ACSH) explores the endocrine disrupter hypothesis, which asserts that certain (primarily man - made) chemicals act
as, or interfere
with, human hormones (specifically
estrogens) in the body and thus cause a range of defects and diseases related to the endocrine system.
Breast cancer cells, which survive in hypoxia, share many characteristics
with breast cancer stem cells (CSC) such
as loss of
estrogen receptor - α (ER - α) expression (1), increased anoikis resistance (14) and increased resistance to radiotherapy and chemotherapy (15, 16).
Sweet potatoes are packed
with vitamin A, which helps your liver break down excess
estrogen, balances out your blood sugar,
as well
as your mood.
As with every health issue, you have to start the healing
with food: Regaining a good balance of progesterone,
estrogen, and testosterone is crucial to achieving peak arousal.
Indole -3-carbinol has been shown to help
with estrogen dominance by binding to excess

as well.
This is why you need to know that a lot of reasons can contribute to a low testosterone level and these are things
as simple
as diets that won't provide your body
with enough material to create testosterone, lack of physical ability or
as complex
as exposure to chemical
estrogens or modern food lacking nutrients.
Vegetables (
as well
as fruit) also supply us
with fiber that binds itself to old
estrogen, thereby clearing it out of the system, leading to better overall equilibrium.
5MTHF, along
with several other nutrients, is also used to create and process neurotransmitters (messengers in the nervous system like serotonin, epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine); create immune cells and process hormones (such
as estrogen);
as well
as to produce energy and detoxify chemicals.
As with any other unfermented soy, it contains high levels of
estrogen and is therefore unhealthy, especially for boys and women of childbearing age.
It was also used to balance hormone levels that attribute to PMS, fibroids, endometriosis by improving the livers ability to metabolize hormones such

with this type of imbalance.
Just
as with men, too much testosterone can lead to
estrogen dominance and weight gain.
This started off
as a listener question and turned into a full episode jam packed

estrogen dominance, low thyroid, adrenal fatigue and Hashimoto's.
So, lower levels of progesterone, and I see this in a lot
with women who have something called «
estrogen dominance», I have another video on this, and women
with PCOS
as well, and women who have high
estrogen symptoms, or conditions such
as endometriosis and fibroids, and fibrocystic breasts, and those kind of symptoms, or conditions where
estrogen levels tend to be high, and progesterone levels tend to be low or deficient, they'll often have anxiety
with these symptoms.
«These results suggest that phytoestrogens can interfere
with the normal
estrogen feedback mechanisms
with respect to release of gonadotropin in the ewe... although most studies into the effects of phytoestrogens have concentrated on changes in the reproductive tract, there are indications that they interfere
with the hormone balance between the ovaries and the hypothalamo - adenohypophysical system... ewes on phytoestrogens have shown follicular abnormalities such
as numerous small follicles, deficient antrum formation and signs of early atresia... it is possible that the permanent changes brought about by phytoestrogens in the brain are a result of these compounds interacting
with estrogen receptors in this tissue, and subsequently influencing the re-synthesis or replenishment of cyto - plasmic
estrogen receptors... phytoestrogens can interfere
with the delicate feedback mechanisms involved in the release of the gonadotrophins.»
Compounds in broccoli known
as glucosinolates, specifically indole -3-carbinol and sulforaphane, increase the excretion of the type of
estrogen (2 - hydroxyestrone) associated
with breast cancer.
This is why we often see that in people
with Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome (AFS), the tendency is for them to have
estrogen dominance symptoms such
as PMS, endometriosis, the irregular menses, fibrocystic breast disease,
as well
as fibroids.
Any woman
with a uterus who takes systemic
estrogen of any type, such
as a cream, patch, or pill, must counterbalance the
estrogen with progesterone, delivered orally
as a pill, to prevent buildup of excess tissue in the uterine lining, which may turn into precancer or cancer.
The closest equivalent would be to view the yang force
as excitatory, driven by anabolic hormones such
as testosterone and
estrogen, along
with stimulatory neurotransmitters including adrenaline and norepinephrine mediated by the sympathetic nervous system.
With it, risks of increased
estrogen, blood thickening, and a host of other issues increase
as well.
