[QUOTE="jsmith7, post: 144590, member: 38674"] How are you doing? Any update on your gallstones? In males, increasing levels of SHBG over time was significantly associated to [B]reduced[/B] risk of gallstones . (Andrology, 2017, 5, 931–938) The same study says, "Male reproductive hormones seem to have an impact on incident gallstones" and "High baseline free testosterone determined incident gallstones in males." You asked about estrogen. There is some evidence that female reproductive hormones increase the risk of gallstones due to shifting the bile composition toward lithogenicity wherein bile becomes cholesterol-saturated. Experimental evidence also shows that estrogen stimulates cholesterol excretion into bile (again, this favors gallstone formation). However, this study did not find an association between estradiol levels and gallstone risk in men. [/QUOTE]
