How You Can Reactivate Your Hormones - even after you think it's too late and you've tried everything
Menopause is commonly defined by the medical profession as the result of the depletion of Estrogen in aging women. Other hormones, such as Progesterone, are also greatly affected, and all are essential to optimal health.
The most common treatments for Estrogen depletion to date are:
" Hormone replacement therapy, which has detrimental side effects. There has been a lot of controversy over this treatment as it can lead to cancer and other ailments from varicose veins to depression. Many women who do try this therapy eventually discontinue it because of side effects such as weight gain, migraine headaches, and fluid retention.
" Estrogen supplements - these are drugs that are taken orally to maintain the normal estrogen level in the body. They can be purchased over the counter in most pharmacies. However, always consult your doctor first about the function of the normal estrogen level in the body and all the pertinent information you need regarding this matter.
" You can also eat estrogen-containing foods. There are many foods that contain estrogen. Some of which are apples, licorice, eggplant, cucumbers, peas, pomegranates, clover, carrots, garlic, pumpkins, soybeans and soybean sprouts, barley, papaya, dates, potatoes, alfalfa, eggs, fennels, plums, oats, yams, wheat, rice, and many more. With regular intake of these foods, your body will maintain normal estrogen level.
These are the different ways to balance the estrogen level. Be sure to find out all the pertinent information from both your medical and nutritional professionals in order to make an informed decision for your health.
One important note about nutritional supplements. Having a diet rich in the above foods, fortified with additional hormone stimulating supplements takes months. It's not a quick fix, so do be patient! In due time you will feel great because they DO work.
