As SueYoung55 said in one of her previous comment,when the ovaries stop producing estrogen,the Adrenal gland start to produce the hormone converting androgens into estrogen.Arimidex stops this conversion thus inhibiting the estrogen circulating in the body.My Oncologist told me that estrogen can be also found in muscles,bones and skin.Your oncologist is right that even if you remove the ovaries,your body still produces estrogen.Take care..
Craveing salty food is very common in pregnancy. The increased estrogen also changes your taste buds changing what food tastes like, and often leaving a gross metallic taste.
When they first began I noticed that fatty foods bought them on faster but as time went by it did not matter whether I ate well or not. Most of the time I get them daily but some times I can go a week without having one. When I experience them my vision, balance, short term memory, motor skills, ability to hear or understand people and reading skills are all affected. They range in severity and can make me extremely drowsy although they cause me no pain.
Today our foods are GMO's, processed, organic/natural etc. The concern is overwhelming especially because one has to eat! But are we eating ourselves to the grave or to health? The truth of our labelling is not necessarily helping one to remain wholesome! How can one make the best choice today?
I did a hormonal imbalance test and it turns out my estrogen level is at 203. The doctor told me to eat healthy, no carbs and no sugar. They also say irregular period is due to stress. I did my research stress leads to high estrogen. So I am guessing that is what causing it to be high. But I also read eating foods with lots of vitamins (ex. Selenium. Melatonin, vitamin b, magnesium, etc.) helps reduce it. But all this time I've been on a diet and I have been eating all of that.
I was diagnosed with DCIS (estrogen positive , had a lumpectomy, had radiation and is now taking tomixifen. I wanted to know how harmful eating foods with soy in it,, i am getting so many different answers to this question.
d read, on this forum, that B6 absorption may be reduced by the estrogen in foods. Although I realize that the comment was about food, I wanted to investigate the estrogen angle.
Especially since my neuropathy symptoms improved so much during my period. And I'd read some accounts where neuropathy was worse prior to period onset (when progesterone is higher).
Anyway I tried using estriol last night. (Estriol is a bio-identical estrogen cream.) Wow, did my symptoms worsen!
My most recent bloodtest seemed to show relatively high levels of estrogen and prolactin even though they are in range. Would this cause my problems? Can someone help me please...

This is all in your head. Eating a pound of butter is a stupid thing to do, but just doing it once isn't going to have any long-term effects. Also, at least to my knowledge, dairy doesn't have that much to do with estrogen -- it's pretty far down on the list of foods that are estrogenic.
The hot flashes actually went away for about 6 - 8 months and I thought maybe it was a change of climate and also I did some online reading and found that some women say some foods, like spicy foods might trigger hot flashes so I limited my diet. They're back now though and I'm not sure why except I am back to eating more variety in foods, even spicy foods. I notice I get them after I eat, but like Mom said, "you have to eat.
I have a 21 yr male who has low testosterone levels and high estrogen levels. He has gynecomastitis, overweight, depressed, and insomnia. Any advice on treatment option!
This is a very complicated question for a forum like this. We can't know if there's some condition you have that might be inhibiting healing. We don't know what you healed like before the treatment. The disease has effects.
But giving up all dairy products is just smart. All dairy cows produce a lot of estrogen just to produce milk. Forget the fact that they are given de-wormers, antibiotics, growth hormones and such. And animal estrogen isn't a good thing. Then there comes the debate about phytoestrogens in plants. Soy for instance .... so many studies and so many different answers! Keep everything in moderation and you will do well.
I actually take a drug called neurontin for hot flashes.

please comment? I'm thinking of eating broccoli everyday to slow down my thyroid producing hormon. I am having mild hyperthyroid.
I had been reading online that it is possible to help facilitate regrowth by taking prenatal vitamins and bromelain tablets and green tea extracts as well as low dose aspirin and eating estrogen enriched foods as well, so I started taking the prenatal vitamins, the bromelain and green tea extracts and eating flax seed pumpkin seed and other estrogen rich foods. Now after just two weeks I am having spotting and am experiencing cramping.
It is not due to dry skin or a food allergy though I have some food intolerances (but I avoid those foods). I do have an allergic profile and suffered a lot from Hay Fever when I lived in the US but not in Europe, where I live now. I have no hot flashes or vaginal dryness.
ll be less likely to make unhealthy food choices. Unhealthy foods, such as processed foods high in trans fat and oils high in omega-6 fats -- such as corn, soy and peanut -- increase inflammation and may make you feel worse. Also, try to fit in exercise at least 30 minutes five days a week.
Gynecomastia is caused by an imbalance of hormones where testosterone levels may be low or estrogen levels may be high. The condition may affect men and boys of all ages and may affect one or both breasts.
to reducing estrogen such as organic diets, eat more fiber, include flax seed in your diet, eat sulfuric foods (onions, garlic, leafy green vegetables) which improves liver function and can help estrogen levels be more normal, eat more broccoli, cauliflower, and brussels sprouts, eat red grapes, drink green tea, etc. I kid you not, these are ways to help normalize estrogen that people say are effective.
Too much estrogen is pretty rare for menopause as you usually have the opposite.
What drugs, foods can inhibit the uptake of vitamin D?
Have you altered your diet in any way (cut out spicy, fatty, fried, citrus & dairy foods) and if so, with what results? Do you elevate the head of your bed at night to a forty-five degree angle and refrain from eating two to three hours prior to lying down? Do you avoid NSAIDs and aspirin? Do you eat frequent small meals instead of eating large/heavy meals?
As you likely know GERD (gastro-esophageal reflux disease) and headache can often be associated with one another.
