Estrogen affects far more than reproductive health.
As estrogen levels fluctuate during perimenopause and decline after menopause, some women may experience hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, sleep disruption, vaginal dryness, urinary changes, or changes in skin health.
Estrogen also plays a role in bone strength, temperature regulation, cholesterol balance, and heart and blood vessel health. Because every woman’s experience is different, it is important for women to discuss new or disruptive symptoms with a healthcare provider.
Understanding estrogen’s role can help you ask informed questions about symptoms, testing, treatment options, and medication consistency.
