Estrohalt is both an estrogen blocker and an aromatase inhibitor. I looked it up and it is used for estrogen dominance (too much estrogen). If it were effective in reducing estradiol below detectable levels, wouldn't the side effects be the same as a pharmaceutical AI? On the other hand, I would like to know what a doc (integrative or not) thinks about the effectiveness of this for cancer, if it does not reduce estradiol below the detectable level. Does it still help reduce risk?

@windyshores what is an undetectable level? No one had a baseline of my estrogen level. My oncologist when asked how they knew it was working he stated ‘we take it for granted’. When I had him order up an estrogen test it came back ‘<10’. How number do you get as undetectable or does the report say ‘undetectable’? I’m still following up on my estrogen levels but not getting very far. Is there a specific test I should be asking for. My oncologist and primary care doctors don’t seem interested. 🤷🏼♀️
