Hi Eva,
There seems to be direct evidence with smoking and a decreased bioavailability at estrogen target tissues.
Increased 2-hydroxylation of estradiol as a possible mechanism for the anti-estrogenic effect of cigarette smoking http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3773953
I'm not preaching and nor was I looking for this, I just came across it and thought you should know. Maybe this will give some increased motivation knowing how it lowers estrogens huh?.
