I would guess no. Significantly more dangerous also. Though a high level of estrogen would suppress the HTPA, which may help w/ balding.

"Overall exposure to HRT in the past 90 days was associated with a 43% increased VTE risk" Most recent study I could find. Looks like it's not how long you are on it for, and after you have been off for 90 days risk decreases significantly. It's just recent use that really increases risk...

I wonder about elevated estrogen in the context of steroid use. If an AI is not used, estrogen will spike >100pg/ml, though I can't think of an actual range off the top of my head - hence, many users growing gynocomastia. Wonder if allowing it to spike high while still having 2000+ ng/dl...

Well yeah, that's to be expected. There's a reason why BC is associated with increased levels of blood clots. Though the interesting thing is that lowering the dose of ethinyl estradiol taken hasn't really decreased the risk in studies. HRT is also no longer supported as a treatment with the...

Which brings another question, would high estrogen levels in the context of high testosterone levels still have the same effect? Has anyone actually tried using topical estrogen outside of the context of transitioning, especially with SERM use?

He's still got the dreamy may-love-you-may-strangle-you look though

I don't believe that it has happened to anyone else either, it's a one off case that resulted from him using 5x the recommended dosage for 10 years straight.

I was not aware that you were using it on your scalp. Do you feel like it helped, or were you already using it for the purpose of transitioning and not solely hair growth? I was speaking about using topical estro on the scalp + tamox/ralox or some other SERM - an AI wouldn't help if we're...

He took 50 mg for 10 years, along with 10+ other medications. Guy was constantly a week from dying. And the article states that 5 months after stopping it, the growth stopped/reversed.

Only up to page 6 so far so not sure if this has been discussed more extensively, but the idea of doing topical estro + Tamoxifene seems interesting, especially for hair and skin improvements. Though is it a result of increased estrogen or just crushing testosterone levels?
