Click on 'load images' or 'always allow images for this sender'] My wife, Jodi, has a huge sexual appetite, for which Iâve very, very grateful for. But sometimes I worry about not âliving up to expectationsâ if you know what I mean... So now I use this âshowerâ method...and surprisingly, it feels really good! And the best thing about it is how much it helps my performance. It makes me feel like I can go all night. And so far, every single time Iâve used this little shower method, Jodi says Iâve ârocked her socks offâ in bed. So now Iâm using it ALL the time, and she couldnât be happier! (And Iâm happy too LOL) [Try this next time youâre in the shower and prepare to be blown away...]( ---------- What men need to know about 5-alpha-reductase There are several myths in popular culture surrounding menâs hormones... These misconceptions endure despite being consistently contradicted by science. Letâs start with the 5-alpha-reductase enzyme (5-AR). This enzyme, involved in steroid (hormone) metabolism, has been identified as the culprit in typically masculine problems, like so-called âmale-pattern baldnessâ and prostate hypertrophy (âbenign prostatic hyperplasiaâ). On the basis of 5-AR being responsible for converting testosterone into the supposedly harmful âDHT,â several 5-alpha reductase-inhibiting treatments have been commonly used over the past 2 to 3 decades. In the last few years, research has started revealing the crucial importance of 5-alpha-reductase enzymes not just for brain health, but also for preventing prostate cancers. âConsiderable evidence exists from preclinical and clinical studies, which point to significant and serious adverse effects of (5-alpha reductase inhibitors) on sexual health, vascular health, psychological health and the overall quality of life.â -Traish et al. (2014) As it turns out, inhibiting 5-alpha-reductase enzymes is not at all a good idea. And yet, we spent decades promoting and using medications doing precisely that.  The relationship to estrogen Another substance, the hormone estrogen, has been so thoroughly misunderstood in popular culture that it makes it very difficult for people to believe it could be harmful. As opposed to 5-AR and DHT, estrogen has been glorified for more than 60 years. It was supposed to be the âfemale hormone,â and a youth-promoting elixir. (Hint: itâs not.) Even in body-building circles, where Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is all the rage, estrogen is seen as the end goal to shoot for. The reason being that excess testosterone converts to estrogen through the aromatase enzyme. This is an interesting point of view, considering how transgender people use estrogen as a way to suppress testosterone levels and masculine traits. While there is ample evidence showing the anti-androgenic effects of estrogen, one recent study by Lin et al. (2020) showed how treatment of male rats with estrogen REDUCED the activity of 5-alpha-reductase, as well as DHT and testosterone levels! [Can't see this image?

The Big Takeaway To put it simply, estrogen is not deficient in the vast majority of people and should not be actively increased. In fact, it is most likely too HIGH, especially in sick people. Conversely, 5-alpha reductase is a crucial enzyme, and if the body converts testosterone to DHT, there is probably a very good reason. There is evidence to suggest that DHT may be elevated in certain tissues in order to oppose and protect against the action of estrogen (for example its effect on prolactin): âThe DHT inhibition of estrogen-induced prolactin release required estrogen priming. A dose dependency for the DHT effect was demonstrated, with low doses effective and high doses ineffective, in inhibiting estrogen action. â - Brann et al. (1989) So make sure to always question the âconventional wisdom.â ----Important Message---- These 3 key supplements lower estrogen and raise testosterone in men I must have tried every supplement in every single combination known to man before I found exactly the right combination that worked⦠See, I was looking for a way to lower estrogen and prolactin⦠But I didnât want testosterone to suffer.
