Perimenopause

Checklist for Estrogen Dominance

Do you have heavy, irregular

periods?

Are you retaining fluids?

Have you gained more

than 10 pounds?

Are you experiencing

sleep difficulties?

Are you having headaches?

Do you have bouts of

brain fog—forgetting your friend’s first name, where you

put your car keys, or the point of a text you recently studied?

Have you recently discovered

cysts in your breasts?

Have you been told you

have fibroid tumors?

Have symptoms from endometriosis

worsened?

Are you over age 35?

Do you suffer from premenstrual

anxiety, irritability and mood swings?

Do you have a decreased

interest in sex?

What these symptoms have in common is that

they are due to a hormone imbalance called estrogen dominance. That’s

when estrogen levels are too high in relationship to progesterone.

Estrogen dominance, common during perimenopause,

can contribute to a number of health conditions.
