What causes Estrone to be high?
Both estradiol and Androstenedione are precursors to Estrone so you should look at these hormone levels as possible influences. Also since Estrone is produced primarily in fat cells, if you are overweight it could affect your Estrone levels. Environmental sources could also contribute to elevated levels, i.e.: cosmetics, detergents, pollution etc. Medications, stress, medical conditions, and an unhealthy lifestyle can also elevate hormone levels.
