Hi guys,
New member here. Started Peating a month back.
One thing I noticed is about the Peating community is that alcohol is hardly addressed by the forums/Peat. Maybe it has and I haven't come across it...
Theres a few studies that implicate alcohol as being possibly androgenic in the short-term, which might explain its acute effect in men. The mechanism is what I'm curious about though, and i suspect its through enhanced 5-ar activity, at least in the brain
Im hoping the experienced Peaters and scientific study veterans could have a guess at the mechanism behind the results of the below studies:
alcohol raises 3-α diol (dht metabolite) in frontal cortex:
Alcohol Dose-Dependently Enhances 3α-Androstanediol Formation in Frontal Cortex of Male Rats Concomitant with Aggression
alcohol raises allopreg
Alcohol intoxication increases allopregnanolone levels in male adolescent humans. - PubMed - NCBI
alcohol raises allopreg via 5-ar
Neuroactive Steroid 3α-Hydroxy-5α-Pregnan-20-One Modulates Electrophysiological and Behavioral Actions of Ethanol
finasteride blocks acute blood alcohol concentration upon initiation of alcohol withdrawal via inhibition of 5-ar
Interaction of chronic ethanol exposure and finasteride: sex and strain differences
alcohol significantly increases free testosterone post-exercise
Postresistance exercise ethanol ingestion and acute testosterone bioavailability. - PubMed - NCBI
Cheers
