Ovary Cyst, Growth Hormone connection?
I've struggled with cysts all my life. I'm only 26. Lately I've been asking the older women I know if they had cysts or heard of cysts back when they were my age. All of them had never heard of cysts until recently. Not to say they didn't exist, but are they more frequent today? And if so, why? Could it be the growth hormones in our food and water? I understand growth hormones contribute to the younger puberty ages in girls now, could it also mess up our hormones and give us these cysts?
Just some of my thoughts lately.

It's so hard to try and avoid all growth hormones/hormones in plastics, etc. I saw Dr. Oz yesterday and that stuff is in the water. How to get around that? I have a purifier, but I don't think that helps.
Uhh! I wish there were laws passed to ban this crap! It's killing us!

I also read labels on hand/body lotions and shampoos all the time now. Anything with parabens I will not buy (and it might have a prefix in front of the word paraben....any variation of paraben is bad). I threw a messload of stuff away.
It is almost impossible to find facial cosmetics without parabens, at least not at the grocery store level.
I also have serious doubts about the long term consequences of artificial sweeteners. I avoid them like the plague. Only Stevia is okay because it is extracted from a plant, not a chemical factory.

Some of it is. It is important to buy meats that state on the labels that no growth hormones were used in the raising of the animal. It usually is more pricey, though, but how expensive is cyst surgery, right?
it makes sense, come to think of it, we are being exposed to MANY MORE terminal diseases (not to mention cysts), than back in the days.
our food is genetically modified (which is already bad enough), increased stress, preservatives everywhere, but the hormones part makes a lot of sense.
if im not wrong the meat we eat is injected with hormones?

Yes. We are exposed to a lot of unnatural hormones now. In food, medications, cosmetics, lotions & shampoos (parabens used as preservatives). Also hormones are getting into food from plastic containers. Avoid sodas in plastic bottles. Never microwave food in plastic containers--goodbye Lean Cuisine! We are being poisoned!
