Ever since I wrote my article on male menopause, I’ve been getting questions about estrogen blockers for men. And my answer to all those questions thus far has been mostly “good question, but it’s a long answer.” Well, today you get that answer, in complete detail.

In this article, we will cover:

  • What estrogen blockers are
  • Why estrogen blockers are used
  • Medications vs. natural estrogen blockers (including estrogen blocker foods)
  • Do estrogen blockers work?

But before we jump in, we should address the very basics of improving testosterone, like:

  • Improving poor sleep.
  • Do some strength training to improve lean body mass (and along with that, bone mineral density and healthy estrogen levels for men).
  • Improve your stress management skills.
  • Decrease/eliminate alcohol.

The very bare basics, which aren’t glorious or sexy will often have as much as, or more of an effect than testosterone treatment or estrogen blockers.

With that out of the way, let’s get to it. Here is an example of the effects estrogen could have:
