Estrone is the main estrogen present during and after menopause. Estrogen levels rise and fall throughout your life. During puberty, estrogen shoots up to help your body make physical changes, such as breast development. Levels change during your menstrual cycle: rising during ovulation, when your...
extent in some other tissues), which is the most important source ofestrogenin men. Furthermore, testosterone is interconvertible with androstenedione, which can be converted into estrogens. When androstenedione is formed in adipose tissue, it may be converted to a form of estrogen called estrone....
Testosterone’s opposite hormone is estrogen. Increased estrogen levels reduce testosterone levels. Environmental and dietary toxins and certain foods can increase estrogen levels, lowering T-levels. Cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower, cabbage, and broccoli combat estrogen, helping boost testosterone. Cru...
In the same way that men need estrogen, aka the “female” hormone, for optimal health, women need testosterone for optimal health. This article will describe testosterone physiology in women and its importance for women’s health, and refute the two prevailing myths that “testosterone is un-...

Women have less testosterone than men, and estrogen (the female hormone) is more prevalent in them. Testosterone is produced mainly in the testicles, and when you inject it through any hormonal supplementation, your testicles eventually stop working.2 This is why people on steroids are made fun...
It has a role in increasing T levels and regulating estrogen levels. Because of this, DHEA is very popular among men that want to boost their T levels. From all the supplements used for boosting testosterone, DHEA has had the most extensive studies done. Just like some other supplements, ...
In humans, the influence of testosterone may take place based on two mechanisms: through alteration of the hormone to estradiol and trigger specific estrogen receptors, and by triggering of the androgen receptor. Free testosterone (T) is transmitted to the cytoplasm of selected cells for attachment...
However, the absence of significant impact on the mortality makes it unclear whether the small (or absent) systemic absorption by vaginal estrogen replacement, as demonstrated by several studies [8], could negatively impact outcomes in women on aromatase inhibitors, or if the findings merely reflect...
Testosterone must aromatize into estradiol (estrogen) to confer protection to biological system. Estradiol is a pleiotropic hormone that has instrumental influence over numerous critical functions related to the cardiac and vascular system, bone and mineral metabolism, cognition, memory, mood, balance, ...
