I just started taken DIM with Calcium , but now i'm hearing that DIM blocks the effects of testosterone and also androgen receptors.. Really really bad if you trying to build muscle .
@@thejdocrealminute4648 Yes i watched "The DIM Benefits For Men" ... you talk about how DiM frees up bound testosterone , but what good is that if it also blocks the androgen receptors ?
@@jaypaige7550DIM does not block the androgen receptor, but it a Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) that no one wants Because it causes male pattern baldness. It shares some similarities with finesteride as far as hairloss and prostate cancer goes
But the androgen being blocked is DHT, not free T - correct? Stands to reason since both DHT and estradiol are metabolites of free testosterone. Like DIM, zinc is also similarly anti-estrogenic, anti-androgenic (at the DHT level), and free T enhancing, so the moral of the story is anti-androgenic isn't necessarily always a bad thing.
I have a question I hope you will address. Should a postmenopausal woman discontinue taking DIM? I’ve been taking it for estrogen dominance. However I learned today on another channel that postmenopausal woman produce less estrogen and therefore there is no benefit in taking.
Any pro tips for dealing with the severe headache I get when taking DIM. This, and Dr. Jawads previous video, make me understand why I have them. But would sure like some advice or strategies on how to effectively deal with them. Thanks!
@@thejdocrealminute4648 Thank you Dr. Jawad! I am going to take your advice, and give DIM another go. Your video's are awesome. Easy to understand, and chock-full of the kind of information we need. Thank you once again. God bless you sir...
@@thejdocrealminute4648 thanks for the response I notice dim basically cleared up my acne which was probably hormonal but I feel like my libido took a hit. You think it’s a temporary with the hormones trying to rebalance
Hello doc...thanks a lot for making a video on this topic. My daughter has androgenic hair loss and baldness and pcod . When i got a hormone test done for her she had high testosterone levels. You mentioned that DIM increases testosterone but it works well for androgenic hair loss...so i am a bit confused shld I start with DIM for my daughter??
Dear Doctor, your info is phenomenal. Thank you:). Kindly advise if DIM and CDG can also be given to teenage girls with estrogen dominance and irregular periods.
Hey doc. What's your opinion about dim and tudca and bovine gelatine (for glycine content) for detox, plus boron at 9mg for one week cycle at the same time ?
I bought CDG I’m hoping this isn’t true but tonight I stopped my dose after 2 days. Headaches have been on the rise but I was assuming because it was excreting all of the bad. Only thing that stopped me today was hearing that some people were saying it’s possible it also excretes testosterone alone with estrogen while it filters it thru.. maybe thats only when taken alone? I’m just not sure doc. Lmk if u hear anything! Thanks
@@thejdocrealminute4648 no hate, love your vids bud it’s just if you go online and search things up they will say things like in mice they lower testosterone, but what about humans is my question. Lots assuming it lowers it as well but I guess I doubt it I just wasn’t sure if you had any knowledge of that or found others saying some of the same things
@@ty8473 The only research I found was in mice. Men can greatly benefit from DIM supplements because they free up bound testosterone and optimize its performance in the body. This lays the groundwork for a healthy hormonal balance, which is the foundation of good sexual, physical and mental health

This has been so helpful after years of birth control. I also grow broccoli sprouts...I am very happy with my results.
I stoped DIM because it made me the most irritable person. And can I take it while taking macuna? Thank’s great video as always.
Yes you can! Remember, you are cleaning out the liver pathway so, irritation may happen.
I just started taken DIM with Calcium , but now i'm hearing that DIM blocks the effects of testosterone and also androgen receptors.. Really really bad if you trying to build muscle .
I heard it can do that if you take over 100mg a day
Have you watched my others videos for DIM?

It sounds like the effects of detoxing the liver. The headaches will go away over time. Take Magnesium Glycine 300 mg before bedtime.

@@davetherave4599 thank you for your support.
Has anyone used this while receiving cancer treatments, any benefit to help with lymph and detox
heard you have to work the phases 1-3 backwards.....
Never heard that....
What about dim with milk thistle since milk thistle is a liver detoxification supplement?
That is great as well. I take both.

Yes, absolutely ---- HOWEVER, I always mention --- START with Diet.
@thejdocrealminute4648 cannot thank you enough, Doctor, for your prompt reply. Will surely bear the diet advice also in mind. Good day to you.
Good luck!@@berries2511
Excellent Intro!!!!!
thank you!

I don't see anything wrong with it.
Thanks for another informative video!
You bet! -- Thank you for your support.
Will DIM decrease testosterone in women? I want to take it for estrogen dominance but I do not want to decrease my testosterone.
Yes, it decreases the over load of Testosterone. ---- It will 'balance' out the two.
Super!
Thank you! Cheers!
Ok during pregnancy?
I feel like this product will make a woman less feminine. Not sure if I want to take this.
The opposite --- watch my Estrogen series. ua-cam.com/video/Y3AxZpMEOAk/v-deo.html
Calcium d glucorate made me feel awful
I was reading into this recently but I heard CDG can lower testosterone is any of this true?
