#228 Why You Feel Puffy, Moody & PMS-y: The Truth About Excess Oestrogen

June 17, 2026 • Natalie K. Douglas & Amie Skilton • Episode 228

0:00 | 28:10

If you’ve ever struggled with heavy periods, hormonal mood changes, painful boobs, feeling swollen before your period, or have been told you have “high oestrogen” without much explanation… this episode is for you.

Because contrary to Instagram wellness culture, it’s usually not as simple as “your body is making too much oestrogen.” Hormones are a LOT more nuanced than that — and in this episode, we’re breaking down what’s really going on behind symptoms like PMS, bloating, breast tenderness, headaches, mood swings, fluid retention, and feeling like your jeans suddenly shrunk overnight.

We also dive into the science of hormone detoxification in a way that’s practical, understandable, and actually useful — without turning this into a biochemistry lecture from hell.
