Hi Guys,
Hoping you can help out.
I've read dozens of threads on AM about lowering estrogen for prostate health with Saw Palmetto. The problem with Saw Palmetto, is that it also lowers DHT levels which isn't something I want. Actually, I want to increase to increase DHT levels while lowering estrogen levels so that libido and sex drive increase while keeping the prostate under control.
Someone suggested Astaxanthin which inhibits 5a-reductase. I understand this would lower both estrogen and DHT, but I also read that Astaxanthin has a a greater affinity toward lowering estrogen than DHT. Is this correct?
If a few supplements/ingredients can be suggested it would be very helpful.
Thanks,
RS
