Prolactin vs Progesterone

[Specimen]

Is there prolactin induced gyno as well as progesterone induced gyno? Progesterone inhibits prolactin but progesterone can still cause gyno? Just trying to get the facts straight.

[FONT=&quot]Estrogen dominance refers to a hormonal imbalance where estrogen levels are higher than the levels of progesterone, another important reproductive hormone. In a normal body, estrogen and progesterone levels are balanced. They complement each other, at the same time keeping each other in check. With normal levels of progesterone, estrogen can’t rise out of control, and the same is true in reverse.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]However, the fact that we are exposed to SO MUCH estrogen (via food, artificial products, industrial waste, plastics, pesticides, and hundreds of other sources) means that our bodies always tend to have higher levels of estrogen. At the same time, high levels of stress have become the “norm” in our modern lives. Stress causes the body to produce cortisol (stress hormone), but it ends up stealing progesterone in order to produce the hormone. Chronic stress can lead to chronically low levels of progesterone, which in turn makes it more likely for the hormonal balance to be thrown off.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]Insulin and cortisol work together with testosterone to store fat around the belly and abdomen (in case of “emergencies”). Estrogen and progesterone help to prevent the fat from being stored in the belly, instead sending the fat to the hips, thighs, and breasts. With enough progesterone in the body, only healthy amounts of fat are stored. But if the progesterone levels dip too low, estrogen is essentially able to store fat in limitless quantities.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]That’s why estrogen dominance is really the primary obstacle many women and men with low testosterone face. Their bodies are designed to store more fat, and without the progesterone to prevent it, they end up with more body fat than is healthy. Despite their best efforts to lose weight, their estrogen-progesterone imbalance stops them from burning fat effectively.[/FONT]
