[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 198024, member: 15043"] The thing is that sometimes the body doesn’t convert the testosterone coming in to metabolites in proper ratios. For instance, there’s guys that for whatever reason convert very little testosterone into DHT. If testosterone doesn’t always convert into the proper amount of DHT for some guys, I would imagine that there’s plenty of guys that have issues with testosterone just not converting into the proper amounts of E2 for their bodies. The other thing to consider is that most of the time when E2 goes up prolactin goes up as well. Prolactin is basically the opposite of testosterone. Everything positive that testosterone does prolactin basically does the opposite. Testosterone increases dopamine, while prolactin and dopamine have an inverse relationship. As prolactin increases, dopamine decreases. Testosterone improves sexual function, while prolactin makes sexual function worse. In most studies E2 has positive benefit after positive benefit, which it most likely does. Since prolactin usually increases as E2 increases, I theorize that most of the negative effects of “high” E2 actually come from increased prolactin. And I also theorize that most of the benefits that men get from using ai’s actually come from prolactin lowering as E2 lowers, and not directly due to the lowering of their E2. Anytime I’ve used an ai my prolactin significantly decreased, sometimes more than cut in half. [/QUOTE]
