Are you dealing with estrogen dominance issues but don’t know how to get it MOVING OUT?
.
First off, if you’ve been following along, estrogen dominance can be caused due to a number of things like:
1️⃣Endocrine disruptors
2️⃣Poor diet (like high rancid pufas)
3️⃣Heavy metal toxicity due to the copper IUD, HRT, tap water
4️⃣Medication like the birth control
5️⃣Elevated beta glucuronidase
6️⃣ sluggish liver
7️⃣Stress and high prolactin levels
and yet, your body only becomes susceptible to poor detoxification of estrogen if your METABOLISM is slow.
.
What’s at the fore front of our metabolism? Our thyroid.
Our body is covered in cells, and these cells are what make everything WORK. Our cells need adequate thyroid hormone in order to function.
Now in many cases, whether you have elevated estrogen levels on a blood test or not, estrogen does not accumulate in our blood. It accumulates in our TISSUES. So hello extra fat storage, cellulite, or other growths. In order to get it OUT we need to increase our metabolic function so our thyroid can start working optimally and feeding our cells.
.
Conversely, when estrogen is high, progesterone is either low, which would directly effects our thyroid in itself, or we are not RESPONDING to progesterone because of stress. Progesterone is naturally calming and keeps our body temperature elevated right after ovulation, but is also vital for keeping our cortisol low, for detoxification, sleep, our nervous system and vitality.
The outcome of progesterone levels is based off of how well you’re nourished, how stressed your body is, how healthy your cells are, aka how strong your ovulatory cycle is!
And believe it or not, many women aren’t even ovulating and don’t even know it!
.
Lastly, you want to make sure your liver is well nourished and going through Phases 1 + 2 seamlessly (which you can catch up here and here)
.
So, the answer to healing from estrogen dominance is to optimize thyroid function, make sure you’re ovulating, that you’re producing enough progesterone, you’re well nourished, not overly stressed, and your liver is detoxing.
