Excess estrogen has become a global problem since we live surrounded by chemicals that destabilize our hormonal balance. More and more studies prove it. One of the first consequences of estrogen dominance is the accumulation of body weight, especially in the hips, thighs, and buttocks.
What does excess Estrogen do to us?
1) Decreases thyroid hormone levels, which slows down metabolism and calorie-burning
Estrogen increases the production of specific proteins (thyroxine-binding globulin), which bind to thyroid hormones, rendering them useless. Thyroid hormones are responsible for controlling the metabolic rate, therefore this causes metabolism and calorie consumption to slow down.
2) Promotes fat accumulation
If estrogen levels remain high in the body and you do not produce enough progesterone to balance the action of estrogen, you risk ending up in a vicious cycle. Because? Because fat cells in turn release estrogen and this further stimulates the accumulation of extra kilos.
3) Retains excess fluids in the body
Fluid retention can also occur due to the action of excess estrogen. A woman's body prepares for pregnancy through ovulation and this involves increased production of estrogen, which leads to increased water retention. When you are pregnant, this is a good thing because the uterus walls thicken, but since this does not happen every month, the extra fluids our body produces through this natural process are only harmful.
4) Increase the desire to eat unhealthy foods
This is another thing that most women notice in the premenstrual period: an irresistible desire to eat fatty and sugary foods.
5) Sleep problems
Lack of sleep has been widely shown to be associated with both weight gain and difficulty losing it. According to the American Sleep Foundation, 67% of women have trouble sleeping several nights a week, and this is largely related to hormonal imbalance.
