Avatar m tn Hair loss due to alcohol consumption is mainly due to the fact that alcohol affects the levels of estrogen and zinc in the body, which subsequently affect hair growth. Excessive drinking RAISES the level of estrogen, high levels of estrogen result in hair loss. Excessive drinking REDUCES zinc levels in the body. Zinc is essential for healthy hair growth. In addition, constant consumption of alcohol can also induce a lower level of vitamins B and C in your body.
Avatar f tn My tests show I have low estrogen (also taking birth control pill), decreased cortisol in the morning and increased at night and elevated DHEA. I'm just baffled as to why I am sweating so much. Should I get treated for the estrogen or should they level out once my thyroid is fixed? I am taking natural supplements for my adrenals and might want to try HC but I have heard not so good stories about it. Are there natural adrenal meds or how should I go abouts treating it?
285777 tn?1231609844 My earlier comment regarding zinc and folic acid, I hope, should still hold good as an additional benefit. As zinc does mediate many enzyme production in the body, I am not sure whether the benefit from zinc is also as a result of improvement in aromatase enzyme production. Any how, zinc is said to maintain the structure of the sperms. Please discuss these points with your doctor. Solace.
Avatar n tn The body will try not to allow pregnancy if you do not have the physical resources to protect that pregnancy. Also, any large weight adjustment causes a shift in hormones, because estrogen release is partially based on your fat cells. When you lose a large amount of weight, estrogen automatically declines. If you stop losing this weight at a healthy weight, once your body adjusts to the new amount of hormones, you should return to normal.

Avatar f tn I swear by zinc lozenges on the first onset of a sore throat. I'm only 5 Weeks pregnant and wouldn't you know it, I have the start of a sore throat. anyone know if it's ok to take the lozenges? I know, I know, I need to ask my OB but I don't even have one in place yet since I'm so early on.
Avatar f tn Causes of estrogen dominance include birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, stress, poor diet, obesity, xenoestrogens (excess estrogens found in anything from pesticides to plastics). Estrogen dominance can affect conversion of T4 to T3 as well as increase thyroxine binding globulin (if there is too much thyroid binding globulin, thyroid hormone is bound and unable to get into the cells).
296340 tn?1336164001 Oysters, which have the highest zinc content of any food. Zinc helps maintain a healthy menstrual cycle. Zinc deficiency has been linked to decreased fertility since it can slow the production of good quality eggs essential for conception. Berries, such as blueberries and raspberries, are exceptionally high in antioxidants, which can prevent cell damage and aging, as well as help protect eggs and sperm.
Avatar m tn s a lack of lube, infection or something else going on so that you can properly treat it. sometimes you need topical estrogen cream for several weeks/months to fix the problem.
Avatar n tn I personally would advise you to concentrate on his daily Zinc requirement by giving him zinc rich nonveg. food, as it helps in overall male sexual development.
Avatar f tn Hmmmm, very interesting! I had good teeth (apart from a few crooked ones & wearing a retainer when I was younger) up until I had my TT (before that I was undiagnosed hyper for a while). Now I'm hypo. The last 18 months I've had an awful taste in my mouth, bleeding gums, receeding gums & 3 fillings, with another one due soon. I've googled thyroid disorders & gum disease - there seems to be a link, though my dentist was undecided.
Avatar n tn I wonder how much is effected in our multiple 5 hr car trips even though we stop every 1-2hrs. Or not enough iron zinc or C or my high estrogen since I nurse my twins and I was told I have excessive estrogen. Her tiny skinny legs all of a sudden became very thick like telephone pole legs around the same time mark appeared and her twin did not. She seemed to swell up espec around ankles and lower legs which are always cold no matter how we try to keep her warm.
Avatar f tn Your estrogen levels are way too high. Total estrogen normal reference range: Day 1 - 10: 61 - 394pg/mL, Day 11–20: 122–437 pg/mL; Day 21–30: 156–350 pg/mL. High estrogen leads to excessive production of thyroid binding globulin (TBG). Although there are enough thyroid hormones in the blood, they are not taken up by the body's cells as they are inactivated by TBG. In other words, thyroid labs are in range but you have signs of low thyroid function.
Avatar m tn I have tried many multi-vitamins in the past and always find that something within them makes my stomach upset. Not sure if it is the iron or zinc but when i take the vitamins like B,C, D and Omegas I feel ok.
Avatar n tn //transcare.ucsf.edu/article/information-estrogen-hormone-therapy There's no progesterone cream there?
Avatar m tn I have noticed the Zinc upsets my stomach so I have to take it with a little food. Just my personal experience. As I think you all know, I plan on treating with triple therapy (INC, peg-INF, RBV) leading into my transplant. Meaning I will attempt to become UND during those weeks (4-12) before transplant. If UND I will then choose a liver without hepatitis C so I will not reinfect my new donor liver and be free of hepatitis C after my transplant.
Avatar m tn I just found out that there is a class-action lawsuit against the companies that make denture adhesive. It seems that these adhesives contain enough zinc to cause many of the my FMS symptoms. I've been wearing dentures for 18 years and I have always used the same brand of adhesive, which is made by one of the companies targeted by the lawsuit. I called my Dr this am to arrange a blood test to determine the my zinc levels.
1475202 tn?1536270977 Also a couple of days ago due to my ammonia level being high (68) I took a zinc sulfate 220mg prescibed by my specialist to help with the ammonia. In less than a hour I was experiencing the worst pain I ever had. It was in my entire abdominal area and all the way across my lower back. Finally I tried a warm bath and it took the pain away. My specialist even called in some pain pills for me called Dicyclomine 20mg. which also helped relieve the pain.
12757438 tn?1433673730 Has anyone dealt with this type of thing before? They said its anemia due to the zinc toxicity. Has anyone’s baby bounced back from something like this? They have not spoken any words of organ failures so as far as I know that is not a concern. I’m just worried and not sure if I should be asking for something else to be done. Thanks in advance for any insight anyone can offer.
Avatar m tn Since you are overweight, one possibility is that you have estrogen dominance and T replacement may further increase the estrogen levels, but your doctor must have considered this issue already.May be he wants to try it on a short term basis to test its efficacy. So, it is better to get these points clarified from him. By the way, what was your T levels?, did you check your free T?.
2005895 tn?1327721790 Forgot to add that women is more likely to have a zink deficiancy bc of estrogen. Living with stress a long time will give high copper count. Look up copper toxity. Copper plays with cortisol- the stress hormone, and adrenaline. The longer you live with stress the harder it is to balance copper and zink.Take zink togheter with food high in protein and fat for better absorption. I dont know if everyone gets white spots on their nails when they are deficiant of zink.
Avatar m tn 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... RESULTS Oestradiol 147 pmol/L (44-156) Prolactin 211mIU/L (86-324) Testosterone 29.5 nmol/L (7.6-31.4) Thyroid stimulating hormone 1.26 mIU/L (0.27-4.20) Thank you!
922048 tn?1387942584 It is in the adrogen loop - so the doc needs to test LH, FSH, estrogen testosterones and all the other hormones related there to figure out what is going on there. DHEA converts to estrogen or testosterone.
Avatar f tn And yes, estrogen can stimulate any remaining endo. Some doctors say that going without estrogen for a certain period of time post-op to allow the lesions to die off reduces this risk. Others say that taking progesterone with the estrogen reduces this "endo flare" risk. Regardless of the endo issue, going without hormones can be a very miserable existence.

Avatar f tn While you're waiting for the increase in progesterone to kick in, why not give yourself some boost by taking a good vitamin supplement regime? Try getting Vitamin B (all the B's in a good combo pill), C, especially D (about 1000 iu's per day...is NOT toxic and you can't really overdose especially at that level), E, calcium and magnesium, Omega 3 and zinc. You could also add some Chasteberry in as that doesn't increase estrogen (stay away from Black Cohosh!).
