Testosterone - connections

Testosterone ->

• Associated With: Zinc (Degree: closely; Aspect: metabolism)
• Inhibits: IL-6 (Aspect: production)
• Prevents: Prostate cancer (Level: normal; Duration: throughout lifetime; Purpose: prevention)

-> Testosterone

• Zinc - Associated With (Context: erection)
• Prostate cancer - Associated With (Level: above normal free; Prevalence: less common)
• Prostate cancer - Associated With (Level: below normal free; Prevalence: more common)
• Zinc - Associated With (Level: high; Target level: high)
• Saw Palmetto - Blocks Effects Of (Scope: some effects; Alternative mechanism: alpha-5-reductase inhibition)
• Alpha-5-reductase - Converts (Product: dihydrotestosterone)
• Aromatase - Converts (Product: estrogen; Amount: excess)
• Ginseng, Muira Puama, Nettle Root, Puncture vine, Wild green Oats - Raises (Alternative effect: reduces SHBG)
• Chrysin - Raises (Alternative effect: reduces SHBG; Combined with: piperine)

Aromatase - connections

Aromatase ->

• Converts: Testosterone (Product: estrogen; Amount: excess)
• Produces: Estradiol (Inferred action from explicit goal: inhibition reduces estradiol)

-> Aromatase

• Fat cells - Contains
• Zinc - Inhibits

Estrogen - connections

Estrogen ->

• Associated With: Bruising (Level: high)
• Associated With: Cellulite (Level: high; Condition: high_simple_sugar_or_fat_intake)
• Associated With: PMS (Level: high; Type: high-estrogenic)
• Causes: Estrogen-sensitive cancer, Fibroid tumors (Certainty: may; Duration: lifelong; Level: higher mean average)
• Causes: Hyperthyroidism (Level: declining; Population: postmenopausal women; Scope: some)
• Causes: Hyperthyroidism (Level: declining; Population: premenopausal women; Scope: some)
• Causes: Abnormal liver functions (Level: high; Modality: may)
• Causes: Vascular headache (Level: low or diminishing; Contexts: menopause, low-estrogenic PMS, amenorrhea)
• Increases: Intracellular copper (Level: higher)
• Increases: Serum copper (Level: higher; Frequency: sometimes)
• Increases: Manganese (Level: higher; Location: intracellular)
• Increases: Bone density (Therapy: alone)
• Increases: Cancers (Therapy: alone; Risk: greater)
• Inhibits: IL-6 (Aspect: production)
• Is A: Hormones
• Triggers: Abnormal liver functions (Level: elevated; Emphasis: particularly)
• Triggers: Menstrual-cycle migraine (Level: higher mean average; Frequency: common; Timing: menstrual cycle)

-> Estrogen

• Alcohol consumption, Birth control pills, Hormone replacement therapy, Pregnancy - Increases
• Fat cells - Increases (Condition: more fat cells; Mechanism: aromatase conversion)
• Congestive liver disease - Increases (Level: higher)
• Manganese, PABA - Mimics (Property: estrogenic)
• Manganese - Mimics (Strength: strong)
• Nickel, Vitamin B6, Vitamin C - Reduces (Level: high)
• Liver function - Regulates (Ability: improved when manganese is lowered)
