Estrogen+PUFA Esters May Drive Obesity; Most Doctors Have Not Even Heard Of Them
An unassailable dogma in endocrinology is that menopause is characterized by low estrogen levels. The fact that plasma levels are only indicative of ovarian activity is conveniently overlooked, as is the fact that fat tissue grows after menopause and fat is the primary source of estrone (estrone...- haidut

The Carcinogenic And Estrogenic Effects Of PUFA

Birth Control (BC) Pills Increase Suicide Risk By More Than 300%

Estrogen, Not Androgens, As A Cause Of PCOS (and Related Cancers)
Peat has written about the role of estrogen in PCOS for more than 4 decades.

However, despite this management rates of PCOS continue to...- haidut
