Using DIM on TRT: A Natural Approach to Supporting Estrogen Metabolism

Описание: Managing estrogen levels is a critical part of optimizing testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). While pharmaceutical aromatase inhibitors (AIs) are effective, they’re often overprescribed and come with side effects. In this video, Dr. Chancellor Harn, ND, MS, explains how DIM (diindolylmethane), a natural compound derived from cruciferous vegetables, can help modulate estrogen metabolism—offering a gentler, more balanced alternative in appropriate cases.

We’ll cover how testosterone is converted into estrogen, the problems with both high and low estradiol, the drawbacks of conventional AIs, and when DIM may be appropriate either alone or alongside a pharmaceutical approach.
