I am a trans woman and I am taking estradiol and I also have a bottle of WP (white peony). I have heard to avoid phytoestrogens because they will compete with estradiol for estrogen receptors (and be much weaker of course). That’s why I want to know if white peony is still safe to use, that being the case. Does it have many phytoestrogens? I know it converts testosterone to estrogen but I don’t know if that’s the result of phytoestrogens or if that’s something else.
I would be using it for its anti-androgenic effects and I want to make sure it’s not going to decrease my ability to absorb estradiol because of as I said any phytoestrogens binding to estrogen receptors.
