Estrogen deficiency occurs when a woman's body produces too little of the hormone estrogen. This decline in estrogen levels is a natural part of aging, but can also happen prematurely due to medical conditions or procedures. Estrogen plays a vital role in a woman's overall health, so an estrogen deficiency can lead to various symptoms and health risks.
