| DIM balances the hormones by breaking down estrogen and removing it from the body. Estrogen is a major culprit to many of the fertility issues women face today. Endometriosis, PCOS, and Ovarian Cysts, are all estrogen dominant conditions.
DIM also helps men. Both men and women have estrogen. Men’s estrogen increases with age and is subject to the same problems as estrogen in the female body: improper metabolism.
How to Use DIM to Reduce Excess EstrogenDIM is found in such vegetables as broccoli, brussel sprouts and cauliflower, but in order to get just 10-30 mg of DIM you would have to eat one-and-a-half pounds of cruciferous vegetables. While that amount is better than none, it is not the therapeutic dosage. It is recommended to take 100 to 200 mg of DIM a day.
Hormone imbalance shows symptoms like:
- PMS
- Cramps
- Fibroids
- Endometriosis
- Heavy bleeding
- Ovarian cysts
- Recurrent Miscarriage
