If hormonal balance turns over, there is too much or too little of a certain hormone, and these will affect each other leading to imbalance of the hormone system.Just think of the quite simple mechanism of action of what happens when you are exposed to increased stress. Through stress the adrenal gland will start to protect you, it will begin to produce cortisol increasingly, but for the increased cortisol production it will require progesterone, thereby depriving the body of the hormone progesterone. If this condition is frequent or continuous, the body will be deprived of so much progesterone that estrogen will certainly overweigh progesterone, irrespective of its amount. This imbalance (called estrogen dominance) will also affect the production of other hormones, thus leading to a hormonal upset caused by stress, for example.  That is why it is said that based on the reference range stated in the laboratory report, it cannot be determined whether a certain hormone is normal or abnormal, we always have to talk about their proportions and their influence upon each other. Even small changes may have a serious effect on our organism, the whole of the human body.
