  1. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    The point is that that there is a lack of research of big pharma into the effects of a BIOIDENTICAL progesterone. They only make money from taking a perfectly designed hormone and clipping a carbon ring or two off that molecule. Put simply, synthetic progesterone is dangerous. It's no...

  2. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Perhaps the missing link to DHT's failure to guarantee libido is progesterone? There are guys on here and other forums with sky high DHT and no libido to speak of, as well as those with E within range experiencing the same. This article provides a balanced TRT viewpoint I think: Invalid Link...

  3. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Squatsandoats - I think if you were to use it standalone, then you would notice effects that could not be caused by anything else and gauge how it works for you. My father is 70 and is now trialling 10mg as cream per day. He said that applying it to a long standing knee injury gave him major...

  4. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Eatmoar - have you been using it long? I'd definitely like to try it out myself, though it looks like it will take a few weeks to get here from US suppliers.

  5. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Lex I haven't tried dermacrine but it looks interesting. The difference between a transdermal and oral versions of the same pro hormone can be like night and day!

  6. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    If you consider that up to 50% of the Caucasian European population have individuality/defect on the MTHFR gene, then it must be reasonable to assume that Cyp450 liver enzymes probably have a wide individual variability too. Pregnenolone did not work for me. It made me puffy and flushed in...

  7. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    I saved this commentary on prog from 'Chillin' - a very knowledgeable poster at Allthingsmale. "PROGESTERONE " The progesterone metabolism function which interferes with erections is progesterone's competition with both testosterone and DHT for androgen receptors. ie: the more progesterone...

  8. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Have a read at this thread - some interesting analysis from personal experience by forum members. Invalid Link Removed

  9. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    Ok firstly, prog is NOT used as an anti E in males, at least not in the sense that one would use arimidex or chrysin. However, there is clear and persistent evidence that progesterone opposes the effects of estrogen in males and females. The former is anti inflammatory, the latter is highly...

  10. Progesterone as an aromatase inhibitor?

    I've used it as a Now brand cream at 20mg per day. First thing, it makes you feel really calm. I have noted more vascularity. Estrogen tends to make me flush and the cream stopped that flushing and seemed to improve the texture and elasticity of my skin. Looking at a steroid pathway chart...

  11. YUP, SHBG 82.4, HELP!!!!!!!

    Histamine was mentioned at the beginning of this post and deserves attention. Histamine is an intimate partner of estrogen in human chemistry. It exhibits many of the characteristics of estrogen, though it has it's own specific functions. A clue to this assumption is the anti estrogenic and...

  12. YUP, SHBG 82.4, HELP!!!!!!!

    Using stanozolol will be a double edged sword in such circumstances. It will liberate both E and T into active serum sex hormones. This is ok as long as there is enough T to meet needs, but if not then E will eventually dominate after a few days and lead to gyno - which is what quite a few...

  13. YUP, SHBG 82.4, HELP!!!!!!!

    High SHBG can be a symptom of hypogonadism and also of androgen insensitivity syndrome. For hypogonadism, elevated shbg is an adaptive mechanism - it is literally rationing the remaining testosterone by preventing its degradation. I would have to look at some studies relative to shbg levels...

  14. Mirtazapine - anabolic/androgenic...?

    Mex If you look up The Last Psychiatrist on the web, he has some great articles on Mirtz. Seriously clever dude. What I can tell you is this: Histamine causes IBS when it's above normal levels for the individual. It will increase stomach acid, cause discomfort and diarrhoea. Several of...

  15. Mirtazapine - anabolic/androgenic...?

    Ok Jeffo. I think a bottle of 120 is about 16 bucks. I live in Ireland which is a big version of Treasure Island - ie supps are imported and often way more expensive here! If you want Julia Ross' book (which also has a trt chapter) PM me and you can have my copy for free. Information is...
