  • darkening of nipples


  • less acne


  • slower growth of facial hair


  • lowered risk of prostate cancer


  • slower progression of baldness


  • feminization of body shape

Men Estrogen Exposure
Besides men taking estrogen for medical reasons, male exposure to estrogen is more common than you might think.

Estrogen is found in common environmental things such as manufactured plastics and other synthetic materials.

Other estrogens are in the form of metabolites generated from pesticides or steroid hormones used to stimulate growth in livestock.

These environmental estrogens are often called "estrogen mimics" because what most of these molecules do is attach themselves to estrogen receptors in cells and mimic the action of the body's natural estrogen.

Excessive exposure to estrogen mimics set up the potential problems for your reproductive anatomy and physiology.

Prostate Enlargement and Prostate Cancer

High levels of estrogen is believed to possibly be the primary cause of prostate enlargement and prostate cancer.

Men produce estrogen (Estradiol) but in much lower amounts than women. Men also produce progesterone, but about half a much as women. Just like women, men produce both estrogen and progesterone. Progesterone is made in men by the adrenal glands and testes.

A common mistaken belief is that testosterone causes prostate cancer.

Studies had shown that men with the highest level of testosterone have the least prostate enlargement.

Also, men with the highest level of estrogen have enlarged prostates.

Declining testosterone from aging, together with increasing level of estrogen in men, is the most likely reason for prostate enlargement and cancer in men.


Ways to battle high estrogen levels...
  • Cut out the estrogen mimicking chemicals in our life.


  • If possible, when you need to store food use glass or ceramics.


  • Use a simple soap.


  • Use a simple detergent with less chemicals.


  • If you must use plastics, do not heat them up in the microwave oven or leave them in the sun.


  • Use natural pest control not pesticides.


  • Don't use herbicides.


  • Eat hormone free meats.


  • Avoid synthetic chemicals.


  • Buy organic produce, the produce grown without synthetic fertilizer, pesticides, or herbicides.


  • Use condoms without spermicide for birth control.
