Estradiol promotes the bad stuff.. or are you concerned for long term health ie estradiol might not recover? Or you're trying to keep done estradiol circulating so taking flax meal only off and on?
Yes I have NAC at home . I must take. It was part of my gut bacteria pprogramme
hi ella. i like taking the flax meal, i guess it's back to this question that bettie and others have asked about crowding out our endogenous estradiol. i don't want to create an imbalance, i mean, in theory, if we take a lot of daily phytoestrogens, you know, like, a lot ..and they hook up with our e receptors, which is like a protective buffer from the much more powerful estradiol, i guess we continue to make fsh and follicles continue to produce estrogen, a lot of which is converted to estrone and estriol, so, some of the remaining estradiol gets metabolized by the liver ..idk, i guess it just does. i want to stay in hormonal balance, i want to stay feminine and not let testosterone get too relatively high, i don't want dht in me, i don't want to look like my girlfriends mother, angular and mannish, damn, i hope she never sees this, so, i suppose it's just my concern to remain feminine, hormonally balanced, healthy, safe and weird and not become an adversary to my own estrogen. i think i'm making an effort to find some sense in this but, you know, the body is so amazing and so complex in the way it always, always moves toward homeostasis and, in doing so, idk, it's kinda like people throwing out suitcases and excess baggage from their hot-air balloon in order to stay afloat ...things get metabolized. anyway, ella, check out that liver link ..it's interesting.
