Patient's question:
My sister wanted a child, so she went to the hospital for a physical examination to see if there were any discomforts. The doctor told her that her estrogen levels were too high. What are the reasons for high estrogen levels? How should it be improved in the future? What should be paid attention to? Desired help: estrogen 11Doctor's answer:
Estrogen is a female hormone, mainly secreted and produced by the ovaries. Women aged 30-50 are in a high estrogen environment, such as taking synthetic estrogen orally to treat other diseases, or consuming a lot of estrogen-rich foods. Additionally, factors like a fast-paced lifestyle, a high-fat diet, and childbirth can also cause endocrine disorders, leading to an imbalance in estrogen levels in the body. Under this high estrogen level, the incidence of benign breast fibroadenomas, hyperplasia of the breast gland, and uterine fibroids is relatively high, and there is a possibility of transforming into malignant tumors.Clinical observations have shown that the aforementioned diseases all have estrogen-dependent growth characteristics. Reducing and clearing estrogen levels in the body can prevent their transformation into malignancies. Research indicates that soybeans and soy products contain a large amount of phytoestrogen, playing a significant role in the treatment and prevention of breast cancer. The key point is that soy can alter the secretion of hormones in the body. Clinical medical studies have shown that soy and soy products can balance estrogen levels in the body.
