[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 165845, member: 18023"] I am not sure that is a statement that is actually useful even if it were 100% true. As we can never keep ALL the other variables constant. And specifically what variables might increase or decrease estrogen conversion for the same level of total testosterone? When I measure both total T and estrogen sensitive, I also calculate what percentage of estrogen was converted from total T. My conversion is between 1.53% > 5.77% of total T that is converted to E2. On the high end, I was using clomid which increased my total T but increased E2 a whole lot more. Boron seemed to increase both ft and E2. When I used both Nebido and testosterone cream, my E2 went to 4% conversion. But I didn't do that often enough and measure often enough to really see if that was consistent. We know clomid blocks estrogen from being detected by the pituitary gland and thus increasing LH/FSH which increases total testosterone. BUT why should estrogen increase much more than total T did? Since HCG mimics LH, then it might well change the conversion ratio of T to E2. Many of us on these types of forums take many different supplements, do any of those affect E2 conversion? Mostly my conversion percentage is around 2.4%. But it does vary for reasons I can't exactly quantify. [/QUOTE]
