Balancing Oestrogen & Histamine: What Every Woman Should Know

Oestrogen Increases Histamine and Vice Versa

In this episode of the Histamine Well podcast, Joanne delves into the intricate relationship between histamine and oestrogen. She explores how histamine can stimulate excess oestrogen production and vice versa, leading to a range of symptoms such as migraines, dizziness, anxiety, and digestive issues. 

Joanne discusses the impact of factors like methylation, gut health, and enzyme functionality on this dynamic. She provides practical advice on managing these issues, including dietary adjustments and supplementation. 

Joanne also highlights the role of perimenopause in exacerbating histamine-oestrogen interactions and offers strategies for hormonal balance. Listeners are encouraged to explore deeper through additional episodes and resources.

Today we discuss:

  • Introduction to Histamine and Hormonal Issues

  • Understanding the Histamine-Estrogen Connection

  • Symptoms of Histamine and Estrogen Imbalance

  • The Role of Enzymes in Histamine and Estrogen Breakdown

  • Root Causes of High Histamine Levels

  • Gut Health and Its Impact on Hormones

  • Perimenopause and Histamine Sensitivity

  • Supplements and Treatments for Hormonal Balance

  • Practical Advice for Practitioners and Patients

  • Conclusion and Final Thoughts

 ”When I first started working with hormones and oestrogen and histamine, I would be really focused on balancing hormones and detoxifying oestrogen. Which I still do. But after working with it now for a while, when women are not getting good results quickly or if their presentation is more on the severe side, I’m more inclined to think that it is really the histamine driving up the oestrogen rather than the other way around.”

Stay well,

Joanne Kennedy
