My estrogen has been high for years now.
My testosterone has now tanked over the past year or so, and my hypothyroidism is supposedly under control with large amounts of NDT and T3...but I still feel hypo.
My minerals look fine, but I do have VERY high levels of copper and mercury.
My cortisol is chronically high.
My bowels and digestion have gotten so bad I need to take laxatives almost every day now...And the food I am taking isn't digested properly.
My bloodwork shows really low RBC and protein levels like those of a vegan. I don't know what's causing it...but even when I had good bowel movements for a period of around a month, I still had symptoms of high estrogen whenever a bout of constipation would come up...
I've tried everything I can think of to drop my chronically high estrogen levels and it won't work:
Diet (carrots and mushrooms plus low starch and removing PUFA), vit E, pregnanolone, progesterone, plus some other things I can't remember right now.
I'm going to give DIM and Calcium D Glucarate a try, as mentioned here: Can’t seem to come out of estrogen dominance. Tried everything already | Page 2 | Ray Peat Forum
Is there anything else I'm missing?
I've tried Tongkat Ali and some other testosterone building natural extracts to boost T levels but I never really saw any long-term improvements after using them for around a month.
