Hi and thank you for asking

From the above mentioned tests there is no reason to have high estrogen levels

High levels of estrogen can develop naturally, but too much estrogen can also result from taking certain medications. For example, estrogen replacement therapy
Other reasons are endometriosis,irregular menstrual cycle etc
