Thanks Pom and @ char (haha, physic huh?).

I'm only here to offer a new theory relating to sex hormones in GG & GM's. Instead of inhibiting Luteinizing hormone (LH), promote its action (fish oil is a good example of how, it boosts free testosterone), then, 4 hours later promote FSH (follicle stimulating hormone) by the conversion of E2. Meaning, testosterone in peripheral tissues, by way of 5 Ar and aromatase (happening in men and women via ovaries in women and testes in men). Use pro-aromatase herbs, (white peony, forskolin, IICARIN found in horny goat weed, DHEA, etc). I believe this can boost steroid synthesis to start a growth cycle.

Boost LH (fish oil supplement)
Convert FSH to E2 from Aromatse
Fast 12-14 hrs 2-3x a week
Do HIIT (high intensity interval training) 2-3x a week.

Bottom line, Estrogen production comes from Testosterone and androstenedione. Use this (T) surge to convert to E2.
