Assessment & Approach to the Estrogen Dominant Female

With stress, insulin resistance, inflammation, and increased adiposity at the root of many patient presentations these days, associated estrogen dominance symptoms often lead patients to seek care.

With 3 main sources of endogenous estrogen production in the female body, it’s helpful to be able to figure out where excess estrogens are most likely coming from, to assess relative balance between estrogen and progesterone, and understand the routes of estrogen metabolism to determine a well-informed treatment plan.

This webinar is designed to help the provider tackle common estrogen dominance complaints with the most specific and effective treatments “the first time” by using the DUTCH Test to identify the most likely source of the issue.
