A little tad of information:{just in case you didn’t know} :
Estrogen and Gyno can be Caused by...
It's estimated that approximately 20% of gyno cases are directly attributable to prescription drugs. Some of these drugs have estrogen-like qualities, some increase the production of estrogen, and some, like testosterone and other androgens, are precursors.
Here's a list of classes of drugs, along with a couple of examples of drugs implicated with gyno:
* Hormones: Steroids, GH
* Anti-Androgens: Finasteride, Dutasteride
* Antibiotics: Metronidazole, Ketoconazole
* Anti-Ulcer Drugs: Cimetidine, Omeprazole
* Cancer Chemotherapeutic Agents: Methotrexate, Vinca alkylating agents
* Cardiovascular Drugs: Captopril, Diltiazem, Nifedipine
* Psychoactive Drugs: Diazepam, Tricyclic antidepressants
* Recreational Drugs: Alcohol, Amphetamines, Heroin, Marijuana (weak association), Methadone
Xenoestrogens
These are chemicals in the environment that mimic estrogen. Culprits include heavy metals, synthetic chemicals like DES and DDT, and industrial chemicals like phthalates. The variety of these continue to grow in number, and accumulate in more tissues, with each passing year. Since they mimic estrogen, they can, like other causes of gyno, upset the A to E ratio. They're found in foods, adhesives, fire retardants, detergents, drinking water, perfumes, waxes, household cleaning products, lubricants... virtually everywhere.
Furthermore, there's plenty of evidence that these chemicals are a part of all of us. Researchers found that 75% of the samples taken from 400 adults contained significant levels of industrial xenoestrogens.
It'd be wise to take some measures to avoid exposure to them in general.
Phytoestrogens
These are plant estrogens that, when consumed in sufficient amounts, can offset the A to E ratio. Examples include the isoflavones found in soy, chickpeas, mung beans, and alfalfa; the coumestans found in alfalfa, clover, and soy sprouts,; and the lignans found in linseed, grains, and vegetables.
There is some controversy, however, as to how potentially damaging these phytoestrogens can be. While they definitely act as weak estrogens, you'd most likely have to ingest a lot of them to develop gyno.https://media0.giphy.com/media/KmBd3r88LGrqE/giphy.gif
