Episode 25: Hormone Health 101: The Importance of Oestrogen Detoxification

Your body is constantly detoxifying oestrogen and this essential process (also called oestrogen metabolism or clearance) takes place primarily in the liver and happens around the clock throughout all stages of womanhood—even postmenopause. When this process doesn’t function properly, it can lead to leftover, "used" oestrogen lingering in the body. This can worsen symptoms like heavy, painful periods, clotting, headaches, mood swings, weight gain, fibroid growth, and even increase the risk of oestrogen-related cancers. In this episode, I dive into: What oestrogen detoxification is and why it’s so important How this natural process works in your body Why effective detoxification is crucial for your health The habits and nutrients that support optimal oestrogen clearance The factors that can impair it Links: Take my free perimenopause quiz: https://quiz.francescaliparoti.com/start-page  Explore my Midlife Thrive membership: https://francescaliparoti.com/midlife-thrive-membership/  Work with me 121: https://francescaliparoti.com/services/ Connect with me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/perimenopause.with.francesca/  Support for the Empowered Perimenopause Podcast Your support in listening to these episodes means the absolute world to me and helps me make an impact with my work, which is why I’m here.
