Estrogen Spray Causes Premature Breasts, Puberty
An alarming discovery was made that middle aged women who were using an estrogen replacement hormone spray were actually inadvertently affecting the people – and even the pets – they touched with areas of their body that were sprayed with the hormones. Estrogen creams and sprays have been used by women in their middle age to replace the precious estrogens that have been lost with age.
Women’s production of estrogen typically declines over time, and this decline leads to what can be deemed as unpleasant side effects like hot flashes, growth of unwanted body hair, sleeplessness, moodiness and more.
Because of this, and because HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy) fell out of favor after being linked to serious health problems such as increased risk of heart attack and stroke, women are even more on the lookout for natural and safer alternatives to HRT.
The estrogen spray in question was actually linked to premature puberty in girls, showing larger nipples and enlarged breasts at an earlier age than they should have, and even affected female dogs this way as well. They displayed side effects like enlarged nipples and also enlarged vulvas simply form having contact with the hormone spray.
Boys also were affected, showing male breast growth as a side effect, which can obviously be devastating for boys who aren’t typically all that comfortable with their bodies to begin with. The recommendation is obviously for women who use these creams or sprays that replace lost estrogen to avoid contact with any person or pet with areas of the body that they’ve applied this product.
It’s probably best to try to apply it somewhere that is always covered by clothes, that way you minimize the risk of transferring it to someone, or a furry someone, else.
