Testosterone is converted to estrogen in fat cells, therefore burning a fat cell will release estrogen, which will cause an excess of free-floating estrogen, which in turn causes endometrial hyperplasia/hypermenorrhea. Untreated, endometrial hyperplasia can lead to endometrial cancer.

Estrogen dominance syndrome

Failure to eliminate estrogen: Liver's ability to neutralize estrogen to eliminate it from the body can be impaired by various causes.

Excessive conversion of progesterone to other hormones: Stress coping hormones such as cortisone are produced from progesterone. Thus, high stress can reduce the effects of progesterone and shift the hormone production in favor of other hormones. Large doses of progesterone have anti-stress effects and protect adrenal gland.

Problems converting fat cells to glucose? Leptin? Or enzyme?

Dig. I've seen some teas that the hippies make that has a natural progesterone suppliment. I was bleeding regularly for quite a few months in a row, and then back in August is just stopped, and I haven't blead since.

It's frustrating. Just as my DR dropped me, we were starting to get to the bottom of my female problems and taking steps to make things work. Stupid insurance. I'd really like to be healthy.

How do you handle the constant bleeding? It would drive me batshit insane.
