Estrogen is primarily needed to help control the menstrual cycle, but it can also be used to manage cholesterol levels and improve bone health. The Estrogen hormone is naturally created by women, but over time it can start to deplete, which can increase the risk of obesity and interfere with sexual functions.
However, some women may have high levels of Estrogen that can put them at a higher risk for thyroid disfunction, strokes and blood clots. There are supplements to lower Estrogen and increase Estrogen depending on which is needed.
