Hi Harie can you recommend any supplements that help lower or control Estrogen while on finasteride. My E levels get out of whack while on finasteride. I'm going to try to take 0.5 or 0.25mg ED. would lignans or Green tea help, I was previously taking Nettles but have stopped. My nips are a bit itchy which comes and goes. Thanks Harie

I posed in the other thread because I didn't see you asked the question here.

anyway, summed up.

1. Flax Lignans
2. DIM
3. Zinc
4. Not sure about green tea, you should PM docj or CCS and get their opinion. I don't take it since there is such conflicting info on whether or not it increases/decreases DHT.

Since you already have itchy nipples, you may want to run some Nolvadex to see if you can't squash the gyno before it really starts.

Thanks Harie, also does Nettle Root increase free testosterone like zinc does. I have heard this before, can it be good for libido then. Do you think that nettles might increase the chance or severity of finasteride side effects. Thanks for your follow up response.

Nettle Root seems to behave somewhat similar to beta sistosterol (decreases DHT). It's also a hormone manipulator, and I know that a few people at HLH swear by it's estrogen lowering abilities.

Personally, I can't tell any difference between taking nettle and not taking it. When Immortal Hair replaced Beta Sis with nettles, most people didn't see any improvement in their hair loss...So IMO it probably won't increase finasteride sides.
