In this episode of Stop Feeling Like Shit, we dive deep into the world of estrogen metabolism with expert Dr. Brook Ahnemann. Estrogen plays a crucial role in countless physiological processes, but how our bodies metabolize it can significantly impact our health.

We break down the differences between blood, salivary, and DUTCH testing—when to use them and what they reveal that traditional labs don’t. Dr. Ahnemann explains the three primary estrogen metabolites (estrone, estradiol, estriol), their distinct functions, and why downstream estrogen metabolites (like 16-OHE1 and 2OH-E1) can either support or sabotage your health.

You'll learn how genetics, diet, supplements, and liver detox pathways influence estrogen clearance—and why poor metabolism can lead to issues like estrogen dominance. Plus, we cover practical interventions and testing options to optimize estrogen balance and feel your best.
