One of the core distinctions setting us apart from many other hormone clinics is our steadfast commitment to not employ estrogen blockers in our treatments. It is imperative to clarify that there exists no study to date that demonstrates any inherent risk associated with elevated estrogen levels in men. Conversely, there are multiple studies highlighting the adverse consequences of blocking estrogen, including the onset of erectile dysfunction, inhibition of visceral fat burning, heightened risk of heart disease, and a range of other detrimental effects.

Recall your youth, a time when your testosterone levels were at their zenith. Approximately 10% of that testosterone naturally converts into a form of estrogen known as estradiol. During this phase, you likely experienced your peak physical and mental well-being with minimal health concerns. But why?

The reason lies in the fact that your testosterone and estrogen levels were in harmonious equilibrium, representing the optimal balance for overall health. In the case of a healthy man in his mid-twenties, no medical professional would ever recommend obstructing the conversion of testosterone. So, it begs the question: why would they consider such a course of action for a man in his fifties?
