    PUFA peroxidation can cause heart failure, latter can be reversed

    The mainstream view on heart failure is that in most cases (when it is not congenital) it is a secondary morbidity caused by conditions such as diabetes, CVD, obesity, smoking, alcohol intake, etc. However, a direct causative agent and process has not been proposed so far. The study below...

    Almost 1000 common food/drug/household chemicals are (estrogenic) carcinogens

    Back in 2023, I had an interview with Dr. Mercola in regards to estrogen and its role in many disease, especially cancer. We discussed the official classification of estrogen as a "known human carcinogen" by both the US government and WHO. That interview must have struck a nerve since a famous...

    Why would progesterone make fibroids worse?

    I'm on a facebook progesterone page and there is a member there who says progesterone made her bleed more and fibroids worse over time. Why would this be the case?? I thought progesterone is suppose to help not worsen. She said using estrogen settled everything. Is there something we are...

    NIH/Fauci-funded study shows transgenderism can be induced/modulated with estrogen

    The ever-rising rates of LGBTQ are a very controversial topic in society and we have discussed them here quite a few times, with the focus being on environmental factors as a probable cause. As such, the revelation provided by the links below is probably not a surprise to most forum readers, but...

    Obesity is estrogen-driven; Chronic fasting burns mostly muscle, not fat

    I wanted to do a quick post on this, as this topic is one of the most discussed in both medicine and society in general. Namely, whether fasting is a good and healthy approach to weight loss, which is largely determined by whether the weight we lose during fasting is mostly fat or muscle. Even...

    Relora estrogenic??

    I have had success using Relora in the past to lower cortisol. I decided to give it another try and have been taking for several nights before bed. Yesterday morning I woke up from my sleep with a thumping heart and sweating hot flash. I'm so tired of certain supplements giving me this effect...

    NATURAL AROMATASE INHIBITORS

    Through research and experience, I’ve come to the conclusion that aromatase inhibition is crucial for having high testosterone. Many who take DHEA, DHT, T. etc. and don’t experience the expected conditions of having high T, may benefit from the inhibition of aromatase. Well cooked button...

    Severely dry skin from Vitex/Calcium D glucarate

    Ok in a desperate attempt to lower my prolactin and estrogen, I ended up with dry skin and hair. I notice with Vitex it caused either dopamine or adrenaline surges at high dose. Along with the Calcium D glucarate I noticed my hair was starting to sound like straw when I tried to tie it up. My...

    Optimal Prolactin range for females?

    I’ve come across posts here where prolactin numbers closer to 0 are better. Except I’m female and I doubt 0-7 would be ideal. So what is the perfect range for prolactin in females? Do we only have low prolactin post menopause. My most recent blood test results: Prolactin 24.8...

    Vitex Prolactin

    https://www.cjmb.org/uploads/pdf/pdf_CJMB_465.pdf I’m trying to understand how Vitex is able to lower prolactin, yet raise estradiol according to this pdf. Is this why Vitex is dose dependent? It states it’s beneficial effects dropped off by 5th cycle. Does this mean Vitex loses effect if...

    Fat increases estrogen synthesis, even in menopausal females; glucose lowers it

    A fascinating study, which provides a number of important findings and insights. First, the study shows that fat (from diet or lipolysis) drives estrogen production not only in fat cells (which has been known for decades, even by mainstream medicine), but also in other organs typically not...

    PUFA (linoleic acid) is a true estrogen, similar to estradiol

    This is one of those studies that, in my view, largely puts the debate about PUFA to rest. If PUFA, as the study found, is a direct xeno-estrogen at the receptor level, and can cause the same genomic effects as estradiol, then it is a moot point to argue about any "benefits" of that lipid. Why...

    Ideal Vitamin B?

    Can anyone let me know if this is a good active vitamin B complex? I know it’s been said that B5 can be agitating. But I can’t seem to find one without. I know B’s are better taken from liver but I am trying to avoid copper at the moment and also trying to heal my leaky gut, lack of stomach...

    Calcium D Glucarate+Prunella Vulgaris for someone 69+?

    Can my mother, who is 69 years old take Calcium D Glucarate? I understand that this is to remove excess estrogens and her blood test levels are <40 pmol/L. I'm unsure if these are lower levels as the ranges on the results page are for those who still have a menstrual cycle. Can she take CDG...

    Female hormone help

    So which hormone is the one that causes heavy bleeding? Estrogen or Progesterone? Also what do these numbers represent? Is this within normal ranges or do they indicate Estrogen dominance? Thank you! The ratio of estradiol to progesterone is 227 pmol/L estradiol to <0.5 nmol/L progesterone
