A member asked:
My throat is dry all the time even though i drink plenty of water. seems to get better right before my period. could this be estrogen dominance?

Probably not: More than likely due to low humidity, allergies, mouth breathing. You should also be checked for diabetes. Good luck!

Estrogen deficiency: It seems that dry mouth,eyes,skin, and therefore possibly dry throat, is more commonly due to estrogen deficiency rather than dominance. It's possible that with an estrogen surge, your symptoms could improve but this does not usually happen right before your period. Estrogen dominance could play a part if you ingest birth control pills, hormone replacement therapy, or plant estrogens.
