Is there estrogen in men?

There is estrogen in men. Male short-term use of estrogen-containing drugs will not have a significant impact on reproductive system, but long-term exposure to estrogen-containing items in life will do great harm to reproductive health.

For example, some men will use women's cosmetics at will when taking care of their skin. These cosmetics specially developed for women contain certain estrogen, which will damage male reproductive health and cause hypogonadism if used for a long time.

Estrogen is very beneficial to women. It can increase women's femininity and release sufficient female hormones. However, too much estrogen will obviously affect the male reproductive system, including affecting the level of androgen, causing changes in testicular tissue structure, causing testicular cancer, reducing the number of sperm in semen, and causing male breast development and endocrine disorders.
