So i’ve been reading that green tea increases your testosterone levels, and lowers your estrogen levels. But black tea decreases testosterone levels and increases your estrogen levels.

Is this true?

Because if this were true, wouldn’t drinking green tea cause hair loss? Because high testosterone causes male pattern hair loss on women right? Meanwhile, higher estrogen levels cause thicker hair on women right?

Actually now that i think about it, if green tea increases testosterone it would do a lot of bad things…..

-cause acne
-oil skin
-hair loss

so does drinking too much of it do this?
Lol well i know it sounds bad. But i was thinking about it, and i drink a lot of green tea and i have oily skin and I’m prone to breakouts. So i was kind of just putting the 2 and 2 together. I just want to make sure that in the long run I’m not going to ruin my hair because of drinking green tea, when really i could just switch to black tea.
I never really thought about sugar before. I use honey so i didn’t think it matters because honey is natural. Well i probably drink anywhere from 5 to 10 cups a day, and for each cup i have a teaspoon of honey.

I’m a 41yo woman. Lately, much to my chagrin, I’ve been feeling a sort of hypermasculinity. I also have acne along my jawline, which I’ve read can indicate an excess of androgens. Could both of these things be indicative of menopause? Are there any natural, vegan, non-hormonal remedies?

ive already seen my GP but he wasnt very helpful..i would like to go see a specialist but im not sure which one to choose..?

about me
-17 yr old female
-5'2" & 110 lbs
-severe hair loss, started 2 years ago (possibly androgenic?)
-excess hair growth on legs, thighs, arms, stomach, facial hair
-moderate acne
-lab blood tests: testosterone levels normal, estrogen low normal range
-family history of polycystic ovaries
-otherwise in good health

right now my main concern is the hair loss, im pretty sure its related to my hormones, who should i go see for this, plzz help

thanks so much in advance

This is a repeat. I got one good answer the last time, but I wanted to post this during a higher traffic time to see if anyone else had suggestions. ‘m a 41yo woman.
