Estrogen is a hormone which is responsible for sex, reproduction, metabolism functions in female's body. When entering menopause, estrogen level is low in ovaries so in order to make estrogen, the fat cells have to store more fat. This leads to weight gain. Normally it is seen that estrogen level is very high in the people who are underweight and too low who are overweight. So, it can be said that estrogen contributes in weight gaining or weight losing.

yes and no, testosterone is very good at shedding unwanted fat, but also very good at adding muscle, and for women.. growing beards, enlarged clit, smaller breasts (since they are fat), hairy chest hairy ass receding hair line... so if you are a female please do not take it, and do not advise any other women to take it. simply get up go to the gym, eat small portions throught out the day (eating about 5 or 6 times a day to keep metabolism high, but healthy foods) also a natural way to increas testosterone release in your body, EAT YOUR GREENS!!! they are known to make people release more testosterone.

Do you need to take estrogen suppression if you are taking testosterone?

No, you really don't need estrogen blockers if you are taking testosterone as part of replacement therapy or a sex-reassignment program. That said, taking estrogen blockers may help decrease feminization and make the testosterone replacement more effective in the case of sex-reassignment. However, men who take testosterone and/or anabolic steroids for performance enhancement reasons would generally block the aromatase enzyme to prevent testosterone from being converted to estrogen. Excessive amounts of testosterone causes breast growth since the body converts extra testosterone to estrogen. As always, you should never take any sort of prescription medication that is not prescribed to you, and nothing said here should be taken as medical advice.

How do I get my testosterone levels up?

You need to be eating healthily, plenty of broccoli and vegetables with iron, but that isn't all. Exercise is important along with losing some weight if you are overweight. Get out in the sun and increase your vitamin D and try and get more Zinc in your meals or by taking supplements. Medication can have a negative effect on hormones such as Testosterone too so talking with your GP may help. Reducing stress is also important.
