Details of estrogen metabolism and excretion round out the picture of this very powerful hormone.

Research is presented on their potential health effects due to disruption of the endocrine system.  The breast cancer connection is discussed in depth.

When applying botanical medicine for hormone balance, TCM has given us a very helpful road map for understanding the state of the body with regard to the balance of Yin and Yang. By combining well-documented botanical and nutritional compounds to enhance detoxification and hormone metabolism, we can also reduce the deleterious effects of endocrine-disrupting toxins in our environment and treat the underlying causes of hormone deficiency without relying on the disruptive effects of hormone replacement therapy.

A woman's body sways out of balance in order to adjust to whatever the stresses are that we impose upon it. A wise approach is to see reproductive imbalances as part of a larger endocrine system involvement. From various menses cycle scenarios, we can see how to botanically support the body in order to balance hot or cold constitutions, short or long cycles, adrenal exhaustion, and liver and pelvic congestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eRelated product: \u003c\/span\u003eThe Lecture Notes for this recording are available\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere:\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/2021-Southwest-Conference-on-Botanical-Medicine-Conference-Book-Download-PDF\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2021 Southwest Conference on Botanical Medicine: Conference Book Download (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Botanical Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Video","offer_id":50603425104088,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio","offer_id":50602279338200,"sku":"21SW04","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/3519\/6376\/files\/8.png?v=1761793460"},{"product_id":"panel-managing-symptoms-of-hormonal-disruption-with-botanical-medicine","title":"21ME24 - Panel: Managing Symptoms of Hormonal Disruption with Botanical Medicine","description":"\u003cp\u003ePanelists:\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Stansbury-Jill\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e Jillian Stansbury, ND\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Crista-Jill\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eJill Crista, ND\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.botanical-medicine.org\/Proefrock-Kenneth\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eKenneth Proefrock, NMD\u003c\/a\u003e  This panel's focus is on endocrine disruptors in the environment.
