Estrogen Management in Men

Meaning

The clinical strategy of monitoring and modulating circulating estradiol and estrone levels in the male endocrine system to maintain a functional balance relative to testosterone and other androgens. Proper management aims to prevent estrogenic excess, which can drive gynecomastia, increase SHBG, and negatively impact mood and cardiovascular risk profiles. This practice recognizes that estrogen is a vital, necessary hormone, but its concentration must remain within a specific physiological window for optimal male health.
