The young man interviewing Georgi here has an excellent short introduction-to-Ray-Peat video. I will be sending this to people going forward.

Thanks for the timestamps. Helped me find some hidden gems.

1:16:00
Even in very energetically compromised people, 5mg of DHEA daily did not increase estrogen at all.

1:16:38
He knows people taking up to 50 mg DHEA daily and no statistically significant changes to estrogen levels.

1:21:37
5 mg of DHEA can help prevent unwanted effects of progesterone in men.

1:22:25
Comparison of progesterone/DHEA to testosterone.

1:22:36
Testosterone injections interfere in the sleep of some people due to negative feedback inhibition of pregnanolone and progesterone. These two steroids are important for the synthesis of sleep promoting steroids.

1:24:34
If you do progesterone to testosterone at a 4:1 or 5:1 ratio up to 10:1 then you get more anabolic and more pro sexual effects than with testosterone or progesterone by themselves. (studies in rats)

1:24:58
If you do progesterone and androsterone in combination you get anti cortisol and androgenic effects but without risk of aromatization.

1:25:00
If you are using sufficient amounts of testosterone then eventually you will raise estrogen.

1:25:46
Progesterone is relatively potent aromatase inhibitor and and so is androsterone.

1:26:38
If a hormone dissolved in tocopherol depending on some other factors the dose you will need is 2 to 3 times higher what it would be if you took it orally. Also some lag. Effects from a topical administration last longer.

1:27:33
Applying to gonads show a 50% to 75% absorption rate.

1:28:21
Naval even higher absorption but area is smaller. Can only fit 4 or 5 drops. Effects last entire day.

Is "pregnanolone" meant here, or "pregnenolone"?

Pregnenolone. Sorry for the misspelling.

Amazing find, thank you for this!

Thanks! Very informative.
