So really more of us should be on this
Must admit I was on it at the start for 2 weeks and from memory did thinknthst was when a jump phase occurred,

Gor blimey! Google is your friend as well, you know!
My instant analysis (fwiw) is that it does not boost estrogen, but interferes with the metabolism of orally taken medicines, including estradiol.
Whether this applies to (deoxy)miroestriol or not, I don't know, but I'd be worried about this level of experimentation.... (black hat on) Would it remove the mental benefits? Is metabolism a vital part of this? For those seeking growth, how it is different from taking a much larger dose? And if you think this is risky, why do something similar?
"... grapefruit contains substances called naringin, bergamottin and dihydroxybergamottin which can speed up or slow down how drugs are metabolised in the body by inhibiting an enzyme (CYP3A4) in the stomach.
Anyone taking immuno-suppressant drugs knows to avoid grapefruit; other drugs known to be affected include anti-depressants such as Seroxat, statins such as simvastatin; sedatives such as Valium; antihistamines such as Claritin; blood pressure tablets such as Felodipine; and even Viagra."

There are other articles that point to the same process, rather than an inherent boosting of natural E.
