For example, some women have spots or acne on their faces or unexplained obesity or weight loss. The doctor will say that you have endocrine disorders. Hormones are part of the endocrine system and also the general term for sex hormones. The three major important hormones in sex hormones are estrogen, progesterone hormone, and androgen. These three hormones should not be too high or too low in the body.
- Too much estrogen: can lead to uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, breast hyperplasia.
- Too little estrogen: can cause changes in body shape, unexplained obesity or weight loss. Some people gain weight even when drinking plain water every day, while others do not gain weight even if they eat two bowls of meat every day. Too little estrogen can also reduce vitamin D in the body, making calcium from food unable to be absorbed, leading to osteoporosis.
- Too much progesterone: prone to endometriosis, which is called a non-cancerous cancer in medical terms.
- Too little progesterone: infertility or habitual abortion.
- Too much androgen: women will have male characteristics, such as developing an Adam's apple, growing beards, having a coarse voice, and enlarged pores.
- Too little androgen: can lead to female sexual indifference.
