Aromtase/DHT and MSM

Aromatase only works on testosterone, so you'll need a 5-AR inhibitor like reishi, pygeum, pumpkin seed oil, or saw palmetto to prevent DHT production. I'm less certain about reishi after having looked for pharmacokinetic data. I can't find any human data, and rats metabolize at least one of the reishi triterpenes rapidly so it has a half-life of a few hours. That's OK for rats because they nibble on their food all day, but could be problematic for humans taking it only once or twice a day. (The immune boost doesn't need reishi to be constantly in your system, but 5-AR should be continuously blocked.)

The other 5-AR inhibitors I listed have beta-sitosterol which has a nice half-life measured in days.

MSM is a straightforward molecule so any good brand would work. I've used Now and Doctor's Best.

Thank you for your reply, Candace!!!! =]
Not sure what GLA, PGE1, or 5-AR is.. really not too sure what you're talking about... I'm kinda slow at this science thing.

basically, i got that I can take Saw Palmetto, which will prevent DHT production??? (i haven't heard or ever seen the other herbs you named, but i do know how to get my hands on some SP!! lol)
& take evening primrose or borage as an aromatase???

So I can take both SP & either EP or Borage together to stop my testosterone & change it into estrogen??? am i understanding this correctly?

Now or Dr's Best - Got it, thank you, Candace!

Thank you so much once again for your response!!!!! xoxoxox
