A member asked:
Can heavy periods be caused by too much estrogen? i also have fibroadnomas &have been told those are from lots of estrogen. doesn't estrogen=cancers?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Or low progesterone : Estrogen is counteracted by progesterone. If you have too much estrogen in relation to Progesterone you may have the symptoms that you are complaining of. A balancing with a little bit of Progesterone may help.
