[QUOTE="xqfq, post: 146758, member: 38167"] Hey everyone! I’ve been dieting myself down to a very low body fat % for an event next month, and I’ve been wondering if we know how much a reduction in body fat levels could effect e2? I’ve noticed in the past, prior to TRT, that I actually had a higher sex drive when at low body fat (at least once I started eating at my caloric maintainence again). I now reason this could have been due to the low body fat decreasing e2, thus increasing free T and potentially DHT. I also noticed my pubertal gyno reducing greatly in size when dieting down to low body fat prior to TRT. I know the only way to know is to test, but I’ve done so much blood work over the past several months I’d like to hold off a bit if I could! I’d love to know if any guys here have before / after bloodwork after losing lots of body fat, or if there are any studies on this (I couldn’t find any when I last looked). [/QUOTE]
