Got blood work and my estrogen was 180 and my testosterone was 500, my doctor informed me my estrogen was to high and my T to estrogen level was to low. Anybody know how to lower estrogen levels, I was informed stop eating soy?
Legal OTC Supplement : DIM (diindolylmethane)
Prescription Drug: anastrozole
Improve gut, liver health and reduce systemic inflammation as much as possible.
T aromatizes to E. E is metabolized and cleared by the liver and secondarily by the gut.
Also you really need a male sensitive estradiol test with ranges and units. You likely just received a total estrogen test. Estradiol or e2 is what you want tested. Ideal range is 20-30 pg/ml.
I personally think natural cures for hormonal issues like High E or Low T are highly ineffective.
If you are eating a healthy high protein diet, getting enough sleep, training with heavy weights and taking vitamin D thereās very little that can be done naturally.
Raj is spot on with his advice. Anastrozole will prevent T from turning into E. Thus raising T while at the same time lowering E.
Ask your doctor about it if he/she knows anything (and most General practitioners donāt) they will prescribe anastrozoleā¦ Your E levels are way, way out of controlāDonāt wait.
What units does the lab use? I recently freaked out when my estradiol went up 10x between lab tests, but it turned out the new lab used different units and I was actually quite fine.
