Total amount of T or importance of relationship to Estrogen

[masterpp]

To make gains, and maintain a healthy body, what is more important, a large amount of testosterone, or just the amount of T relative to estrogen.
I mean could one improve with only a small amount of T, if the estrogen was even lower.

i think this is an important consideration for many men

I don't believe Dr. John believes in ratios between Estrogens and Testosterone as everyone is different.

Too low estrogens will cause similar problems as low T from my understanding. Its a true balancing act and you have to find what appropriate amounts of T and E you need individually.

interesting- so you can have too little estrogen then. i was considering trying to improve my body just through lowering estrogen alone and not getting into the tricky area of HRT
