5 Facts You May Not Know!
Higher Autoimmune Risk – Loss of estrogen increases susceptibility to autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis and lupus.
2. Faster Bone Loss – Without estrogen, bones break down faster than they rebuild, raising osteoporosis risk.
3. Slower Metabolism – The body burns fewer calories at rest, making weight gain (especially around the abdomen) more likely.
4. Alcohol Hits Harder – The liver metabolizes alcohol more slowly, leading to increased sensitivity and stronger hangovers.
5. More UTIs & Vaginal Infections – Estrogen loss causes thinning of vaginal and urinary tract tissues, increasing infection risk.
