Zinc lowers Estrogen, but what if you need both? Higher zinc and regulated estrogen?

In reply to Nattha Wannissorn, PhD. Early menoupause shouldn't be considered normal but everyone I know seems to be going through it. I know there is a huge interest among both men and women in manipulating aromatase and 5-a-reductase (both up and down).

In reply to Zsazsa. High E3 is normal for menopause. We don't have a lot of women health-specific posts or hacks but that might be in the future. You can definitely start your own blog to share your experience. We need more of these.

I have been dealing with early menopause aggravated by a paleo diet + transdermal progesterone pushed by 3 doctors in a row. I would like to suggest an entry about manipulation of sex hormones via foods and supplements, with a chart featuring the interactions between hormones and nutrients (with especial attention to aromatase and 5-a-reductase). I need to figure out why my progesterone and E2 are low while E3 is high. A few month ago my dr finally prescribed me transdermal estradiol after I became completely intolerant to progesterone replacement a couple of years ago. Additionally, I have been using the info on this paper to avoid excess aromatase inhibitors: Natural Products as Aromatase Inhibitors 2008 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3074486/
