Stimulation by estrogen doesn't produce the normal amount of carbon dioxide, leading to tissue experiencing oxygen deprivation, swelling, and cell division 1 0 2Estrogen creates an oxygen deficiency, stimulates first swelling, and then collagen synthesis 1 0 2Estrogen increases the blood flow to particular organs, but apparently less than it increases their oxygen demand 1 0 2The low energy of cells causes them to take up water and lose their tone, allowing blood to pool in them instead of returning to the heart 1 0 2Estrogen increases and acts through the inflammatory mediators, serotonin and histamine, to increase vascular leakiness 1 0 2Light's action directly on the cells helps them to prevent swelling 1 0 2An excessive nocturnal temperature drop probably increases edema, with all of its harmful consequences 1 0 2Edema in the lungs limits oxygen absorption 1 0 2Swelling of the brain reduces its circulation and oxygenation; lactic acidemia causes swelling of glial cells 1 0 2Hypothyroidism, estrogen excess, free unsaturated fats cause increased vascular permeability and brain edema, protein leakage, and alteration of the matrix 1 0 2
