Estrogen is a female hormone that stays at approximately the same level from the first menstruation and for another twenty to twenty-five years after that. And only after about forty estrogens significantly decrease. The downside signs are pretty obvious. The skin begins to gradually lose moisture, fade, becomes more flabby; sexual desire is reduced or completely disappears; bone tissue becomes less strong
; weight is rapidly creeping up and fat deposits appear. These are all symptoms of a lack of estrogen. And soon comes postmenopause, or menopause - the time when the female body begins to age and loses the ability to motherhood.
However, the lack of this female hormone may also be in very young girls who find out about it when they are tested or preparing for a future pregnancy. Symptoms of a lack of estrogen can manifest themselves quite clearly. These include:
- Frequent mood swings, depression, bouts of despair.
- Irregular menstrual cycle, scanty menstrual bleeding.
- Frigidity, underdevelopment of the genital organs, infantilism of the uterus.
- Skin problems: pimples, acne, blackheads.
- Persistent pain in the lower abdomen.
On pelvic ultrasound and folliculometry, the symptoms of estrogen deficiency will be the inability to mature the dominant follicle, the absence of ovulation and, as a result, the inability to conceive a child. In most cases, for patients with such problems, the doctor prescribes vitamin E in increased doses. And if there is a lack of estrogen in women, the symptoms will not disappear, only then a special hormonal treatment is prescribed. It will go in conjunction with taking drugs containing progesterone, since the entire hormonal background must be carefully balanced.
Also, with a decrease in the level of estrogen in the blood, a balanced diet is necessary, in which phytoestrogens must be included. To do this, consume soy products, legumes, and some fruits and animal products daily. Proper nutrition will reduce the symptoms of a lack of estrogen and normalize a woman's hormonal background. At the same time, she herself will feel younger, he althier, more active, her face skin will acquire a he althy color and radiance, her hair will become shiny and strong again, and sexual desire will intensify, which will undoubtedly affect female attractiveness.
However, in the pursuit of increasing the amount of estrogen, the most important thing is to stop in time, astheir excess causes cell growth and can negatively affect the functioning of the whole organism as a whole. An excess of this hormone causes:
- Growth of cancer cells (womb, breast, etc.).
- Osteoporosis.
- Mastopathy and fibrocystic tissue changes.
- Allergies, asthma.
- Thyroid dysfunction.
Therefore, before fighting diseases, it is necessary to consult with your doctor, who will treat you individually and under strict control.
