Estrogen deficiency

What is estrogen deficiency?

Estrogen deficiency occurs when estrogen levels in the body are too low. Estrogen is an essential hormone that plays many important roles in the female body.

Some key points about estrogen deficiency:

• It most commonly occurs during perimenopause and menopause, as ovarian estrogen production declines with age. However, it can happen at any age due to medical conditions or treatments.


• Symptoms may include hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, urinary issues, joint pain, mood changes, sleep troubles, and more.


• Over the long-term, low estrogen levels lead to increased risks for osteoporosis, heart disease, and certain other health conditions.


• Treatment options include estrogen therapy, often administered as hormone replacement therapy (HRT). This can effectively relieve menopausal symptoms and reduce associated health risks when properly prescribed.


• Lifestyle changes like eating a nutritious diet, exercising regularly, quitting smoking, and reducing stress are also important for managing hormonal changes. Natural supplements like soy, black cohosh, and DHEA may help milder symptoms too.
