I recently found out about DIM (thank you Ella, Pink Chiffon and Hannah <3). From what I understood, I think it's better for someone who is estrogen dominant. It "balances" estrogen and flushes out harmful estrogens from the liver.
Some sites claim that DIM lowers estrogen but then to my surprise many sources state that DIM is actually the most powerful plant anti-androgen and that it isn't an anti-estrogen:

Maybe DIM both lowers estrogen and androgens (sort of like saw palmetto)? Any thoughts, any experiences with DIM?
According to the above link, DIM is great for PCOS sufferers, hirsutism, excess testosterone which makes it sound appealing but the fact that it could lower estrogen sounds a bit contradictory......
