Effect of Boron on Plasma Total 17-Beta-Estradiol

  • Yes, boron supplementation significantly influences plasma sex hormone levels, including 17-beta-estradiol, particularly in postmenopausal women and men.
  • Elevation in postmenopausal women: Research shows that supplementing with a modest amount of boron (approximately 3 mg per day) can significantly increase plasma concentrations of 17-beta-estradiol and testosterone.
  • Mechanism of action: Boron appears to act by affecting steroid hormone metabolism, likely by extending the half-life of these hormones and reducing their clearance rate from the body.
  • Clinical implications: This hormonal modulation is one of the primary reasons boron is recognized for its beneficial role in supporting bone health and reducing calcium loss, as estrogen plays a vital role in maintaining bone density.
