estrogen/obesity connection

[Fat Bastard]

It has been proven that most obese males(and maybe females,I don't know), have elevated estrogen levels. It is now currently accepted that if you control total est. it can have a dramatic impact on b.f. levels. Has this been proven? Is the weight commonly lost on anti-E's primarily water weight?


Before you answer yes, just because E is high in fat people doesn't mean that the e causes the fat. For example, high blood pressure is prevelent in fat people. If you give them b.p. meds , will they lose weight? I doubt it. I'm not doubting the theory on E and fat gain, BTW, I'm just wondering if anybody has any real proof(i.e. medical studies) on the subject. I'd like to read up on it.


By the way, i'm testing this as we speak on myself.(1/2 mg p-n-p liq. eod; no a.a.s. , just a hard-working cutting phase.


Any imput on this??

i do belive elevated estrogen plays a role in fat gain but not the only role.

estrogen does play a role in fat loss and/or fat gain..

this is a subject that has been of great interest to me. Most folks generally accept that if you increase your estrogen levels you will gain fat. We also know that increased estrogen levels lead to increased igf-1. THese two facts would seem to be at odds with one another. I am slowly working my way thru several hundred abstarcts and am finding soem interesting stuff. For the most part, it seems that the estro/test ration seems to be responsible for the fat distribution rather than fat gain. More estro means more fat in the buttocks and thighs, more testo means more beer gut.

Serge is on the ball today. Estrogen is a part affecting body composition. Do that search, and you will be happy.

Very good question. FB, keep us posted on your results.

It seems like I read somewhere that higher body fat also produces more est. - so the fatter you get the more est. you produce. I'm not sure if this is correct, but I know I've read somewhere???

aromatase is mainly produced in adipose tissue.. so yes


btw-(skin is also one.. for both aromatase and 5a ...part of the reason that transdermals that aromatize are "harsher" than the oral and injectable versions)
