I totally agree and estrogen dominance is the reason I stopped heating
things up in the microwave and started making my own body lotion and eye
cream. It is also the reason the doc put me on progesterone to begin with.
My estrogen levels were higher than normal as well on that saliva test.

Some docs say that saliva tests are better and others believe in blood
tests. I don't know who's right and what's true. I do think I need
something. Maybe if I hadn't had a hyst and was down to one ovary my body
would balance just by eating paleo, but after all the "mods" to my body I a
not so sure. I am looking into Don quai and vitex.

Even so, you might get something useful by scroogling  
(http://www.scroogle.org/) "estrogen dominance".

The second hit has this to say (he left out evil soy):
"Strictly speaking, it's possible that we are all -- men, women and  
children -- suffering a little from estrogen dominance, because there is  
so much of it in our environment. You would have to virtually live in a  
bubble to escape the excess estrogens we're exposed to through pesticides,  
plastics, industrial waste products, car exhaust, meat, soaps and much of  
the carpeting, furniture and paneling that we live with indoors every day.  
You may have on-and-off sinus problems, headaches, dry eyes, asthma or  
cold hands and feet for example, and not know to attribute them to your  
exposure to xenohormones. Over time the exposure will cause more chronic  
problems such as arthritis and premenopause symptoms, and may be a direct  
or indirect cause of cancer."
