"To feel our best, estrogen must be balanced by its partner: Progesterone. When that balance shifts too far in one direction, we experience a state commonly known as Estrogen Dominance."
It doesn't always mean you have "too much" estrogen in your blood. More often, it means you don't have enough progesterone to keep estrogen in check.
Think of it like an orchestra: Estrogen is the brass section—powerful and loud. Progesterone is the conductor. If the conductor is missing, the brass takes over.
Addressing estrogen dominance requires looking at the "why." Are you ovulating? Is your gut healthy? Are your stress levels managed?
The Florya app allows you to document your period flow, breast tenderness, and mood shifts alongside your cycle phases to identify if symptoms fit the profile.
Signs Your Balance is Off
- Heavy, Clotted Periods Estrogen builds the lining, without progesterone to stabilize it.
- Breast Tenderness Feeling intense swelling or pain in the week before your period.
- Weight Gain Weight concentrated around the hips and thighs.
- Mood Swings Anxiety, especially in the 7-10 days before your period.
- Fibroids and Polyps Growths fueled by an excess of estrogenic activity.
