One is from birth-control pills, or HRT, or even from the hormones given to fatten cattle, chickens, turkeys, or farm-raised fish. There are several ways to get excess estrogen. You don’t want your estrogen level to be too low or too high. This fat (potential energy) can then be used during pregnancy to help in the survival of the infant. When estrogen is increased excessively, a woman can accumulate surplus fat not only under the skin as cellulite, but also on the buttocks, the outer thighs, and just below the bellybutton. Estrogen has a slight effect of sodium retention.

This is why women are shorter than men, because of the closing of bone plates. This hormone is produced mainly by the ovaries, but also by the adrenal glands and fat cells.Įstrogen has bone-making qualities as well as an effect of connecting the ends of bones together.

Estrogen gives the fat layer around a female body (just below the skin), it feminizes bodies, and it causes the development of the female sex organs-the breasts, uterus, fallopian tubes, and vagina. I’d like to discuss a very important hormone called “estrogen”. Berg's 3-day intensive program in Alexandria, Virginia, call 70.
