High estrogen levels
Just been reading that high estrogen levels in the body can cause joint pain, is this something causing psa, stress causes high estrogen levels, too much body fat and alcohol. Do you think lowering these levels will take pain away?
What a great question,
! While I don't know whether or not lowering estrogen levels would impact joint pain, I do know that fluctuating hormones does seem to impact PsA symptoms. That being said, the information I've read indicates that it's typically lower estrogen levels that increases joint pain. (I'm including a link to a couple of articles that we have on this, https://psoriatic-arthritis.com/living/hormonal-changes, https://psoriatic-arthritis.com/living/when-aunt-flo-met-psa) Hopefully some of our community members here can also share any experiences they have with their symptoms and estrogen levels. Do you remember where you were reading that information? I'm curious to look into that also. And, have you had a chance to ask your doctor about this at all?

I know this might be advertisement but this could be a factor, I'm just one of those people that need to know what triggered mine and can't accept no one knows as the doctors say
