Exogenous estrogen

[TSizemore]

So, I've always seemed to struggle with receiving results with my wife in the nutrition and gains area. I mean, we get them, but it takes much longer then it normally should. Her body just doesn't seem to respond like all the other "clients" I deal with. Then it dawned on me... You know, besides the fact that she's my wife and probably doesn't listen as exactly as she should.... she's on exogenous Estrogen and Progesterone, so when I give her Anavar, Winny, or Test and she holds water and gains weight. Even on a deficit. I'm thinking we're over loading the estrogen count. My theory is the Test (20mg/wk) is causing in increase in estrogen production, regardless of the fact that she's on exogenous due to she's gone through menopause....

..... Anybody else have any thoughts on this?

Funny I had same conversation yesterday. I think it’s definitely possible. It happens in men. Body seeks homeostasis. So it will adjust hormone production to obtain this.

We'll see. I've cut her prescribed Estrogen off. I'll give it two weeks and see how it affects her. The Progesterone I'll leave alone, since it's only taken during what would be her normal "cycle" time.
