What Are the Treatments for Overproduction of Estrogen?
Estrogen is considered the female hormone although both males and females produce it. It is produced in the adrenal glands, ovaries and fat tissues and aids in the function of female reproduction. The counter or opposing hormone of estrogen is progesterone. The increase of progesterone in the body decreases the level of estrogen and vice versa. Estrogen is a vital hormone but the overproduction of it can cause serious problems for many women.
