10 Estrogen Dominance Symptoms
Symptom #3: Fibrocystic Breasts
Estrogen dominance has a correlation with breast cancer. The breast contains cells that are receptors to estrogen and progesterone. With fibrocystic breast changes, the quality of the tissue changes with lumps. Breasts will be painful and tender. This happens because high levels of estrogen and low levels of progesterone cause the connective breast tissue to grow, which creates the bumpy tissue.
Studies have shown that estrogen dominance and progesterone deficiency resulted in fibrocystic disease and an increased risk of breast cancer. This is important for the prevention and cause of breast disease and its correlation to estrogen levels. Perhaps diet and other measures to reduce estrogen in the body would help to reduce this risk factor.
