Gallstones issues in women | Reasons | Symptoms | Treatments | Horizon Prime Hospital | Thane

Owing to ovarian hormones, women are more likely to develop gallstones as compared to men. The existence of estrogen increases the amount of cholesterol (the central component in gallstone formation) in bile. Mostly, the gallstones in women are solidified cholesterol, so if there is more of it in your bile, there’s a greater likelihood that it could clump together and form a stone that cannot be successfully passed. Estrogen therapy and oral contraceptive pills have also been linked to a higher risk of gallstone formation.
