The natural hormone estrogen is essential for maintaining health throughout a woman’s body. And it does play a crucial part in the female reproductive system.

The thinning of the urethra lining and weakening of the pelvic muscles may occur due to lower amounts of estrogen in the body which can increase the risk of bladder leakage, urinary tract infections, and other urogynecology problems.
