Does Being overweight/obese make your symptoms worse?
Does it cause estrogen dominance?
Does it cause late onset of menopause?

Sorry that you haven't had a response but personally, I don't know.

MayB ask a Pharmacist?  Is there any info in the leaflet in the box?

Hi mk94,

Well apparantely being overweight can make things like vasomotor symptoms worse, and apparantely it can contribute to estrogen dominance as fat cells produce even more estrogen and yes apparantely more overweight women are at a 50%higher risk of developing a later menopause.  That was from a study done by the University of Queensland (Australia)
