Episode 264: 7 Warning Signs Of High Estrogen NOT TO MISS
If you’re dealing with heavy or clotted periods, intense PMS, breast tenderness, migraines around your cycle, bloating before your period, or feeling overly emotional, anxious, or wired, you’re going to want to listen to this episode. Estrogen is not the enemy. In fact, we need estrogen for ovulation, bone health, insulin sensitivity, and brain function. The problem starts when estrogen is too high, not clearing properly, or overpowering progesterone. This episode will help you understand what your symptoms are actually telling you, and where to start.
In this episode I’m sharing:
The 7 most common signs of high estrogen, including heavy bleeding, short cycles, breast tenderness, PMS, migraines, and more
Why high estrogen almost always goes hand-in-hand with low progesterone (and why you can’t look at one without the other)
How estrogen increases histamine activity, leading to anxiety, insomnia, nausea, rage, and premenstrual mood swings
Why migraines around ovulation or before your period are often tied to estrogen fluctuations and inflammation
How stress, alcohol, and lack of sleep worsen estrogen symptoms by slowing liver detoxification
The difference between high estrogen vs. estrogen dominance and why labs can look “normal” while symptoms are anything but
How copper imbalance can make estrogen feel stronger even when blood levels are normal
Why gut health matters, including the role of beta-glucuronidase in estrogen recirculation
Where to start naturally: blood sugar balance, fiber intake, liver support, bitters, vitamin C, and reducing endocrine disruptors
Estrogen doesn’t work in isolation. When progesterone, liver detox, gut health, minerals, and blood sugar aren’t supported, estrogen symptoms show up loud and clear. This episode will help you recognize the signs of high estrogen, understand what’s driving them, and take practical steps toward calmer moods, lighter periods, and more balanced hormones.
