I doubt the e2 theory, but I'd like to hear how this turns out if you do go down that road. Most people aren't anywhere even close to a estradiol "deficiency." If supplementing T corrects this issue (like that person suggests) then it's probably due to low androgens. Are you carrying any extra bodyfat? Aromatase activity is always upregulated in overweight people. If you're even slightly overweight then it's probably not estradiol (provided you also haven't chemically induced this with AIs).
You seem to have a very definitive opinion on the matter for someone who isn't personnaly dealing with it.
I have naturally very high androgen levels and bordeline low estrogens, the only solution to which is transdermal testosterone.
So no, the diagnosis isn't "low androgen or nothing".
How do you know "most people aren't estrogen deficient"? You have precise stats?
