Today we’re going to talk about postmenopausal estrogen. Before you go through menopause, the ovaries are working and producing estrogen. But, after menopause, when your ovaries go into retirement, you’re going to get it from other places.

You can actually get it from your fat cells. If you have a lot of body fat, you could start making excessive amounts of estrogen. You can also convert some of your adrenal hormones into estrogen as well, but it’s not as much as your fat.

There is an enzyme called aromatase that helps you convert fat into estrogen. This is one reason why some women end up with an estrogen dominance situation after menopause that can lead to other issues.

Potential symptoms of a postmenopausal estrogen dominance situation:

• Cancer

• Hot flashes

• Night sweats

• Vaginal dryness

• Depression

• Irritability

A fatty liver issue can also cause a woman not to be able to clear out estrogen properly, and it can build up even more.

There are 3 types of estrogen:

• E1-Estrone (produced by the adrenals)

• E2- Estradiol (made from the ovaries, fat, adrenal hormones)

• E3-Estriol (you have pretty much only during pregnancy)

One thing you can do is take a natural aromatase inhibitor, such as:

1. White button mushrooms

2. Stinging nettle root

3. Grape seed extract

4. Maca

5. Quercetin

6. Licorice

7. Genistein

8. DIM
