Estrogen Supplements: What They Are, Who Needs Them & Safer Alternatives

Estrogen Supplements

Do you suffer from hot flashes, mood swings, irregular periods, or low libido? These are all classic signs of estrogen imbalance. But does that mean you need estrogen supplements?

In this guide, we explain what estrogen supplements are, when to consider them, and which natural solutions we trust at Ask Dr Olz—featuring top products from Metagenics South Africa like EstroFactors, Estrovera, and Chasteberry Plus.

What Are Estrogen Supplements?

Estrogen supplements can be:

• Synthetic estrogen (like HRT)
• Bioidentical hormones
• Or plant-based compounds that help the body produce, balance, or detox estrogen naturally

While synthetic estrogen has its place, many women are now turning to safer nutraceuticals that support natural estrogen metabolism without introducing foreign hormones into the body.

Common Symptoms of Low Estrogen

Estrogen declines in perimenopause and menopause—but also in younger women due to stress, poor gut health, or over-exercising. Look for signs like:

• Hot flashes & night sweats
• Brain fog or forgetfulness
• Vaginal dryness or discomfort
• Anxiety or depression
• Skin thinning or wrinkles
• Irregular or missing periods
• Low sex drive
• Weight gain around the middle
