High levels of estrogen can put you at a higher risk for other conditions. For example, elevated estrogen levels are a risk factor for breast cancer. According to the National Cancer Institute, high levels of estrogen over a long period of time can also cause endometrial cancer.
For years, estrogen has been a suspected carcinogen, since strong epidemiological evidence associates the hormone to breast, endometrial, and uterine cancers. Women who begin menstruating early, or who start menopause late, produce more estrogen over their lifetimes and have a higher risk of breast cancer. Recently, the clinical trial of estrogen plus progestin treatment therapy was terminated because of an increased risk of breast cancer.
