Im clearly thinking outside the box here but is it possible that some of us may be low on estrogen?
Before I took Fin, I was taking a lot of Calcium D Glucarate as part of a detox programe. This supplement naturally lowers estrogen.
When we crash after using Finasteride, all of our hormones seem to get smashed. So it would be plausable that estrogen is also smashed into oblivion or somehow it is blocked at the receptor?
I notice that a lot of guys on here have normal estrogen levels or slightly high via blood tests. Yet when we take Arimidex, most guys do not tollerate it well at all and seem to slip straight into low estrogen.
Since the symptoms of high and low estrogen are almost identical, is it possible then, that we may in fact be low on estrogen?
I know that raising testosterone should raise estrogen, but perhaps the T to E ratio is not right or somthing. Like there is far too much T and DHT and not enough E to feel right.
I dont have enough evidence to prove this, and I may never have enough evidence, but I figure a few hundred heads are better than one and Im just throwing this idea out there so it doesnt go un-investigated. We need to leave no stone unturned here.
I currently also suspect Dopamine is a player in all of this since at least one guy here reported a complete reversal of symptoms using amphetamines. I am currently taking Dopamine pre-cursors and we will see what happens.
