Since estradiol is unregulated (in the US anyways), does this mean that you could theoretically make estradiol gummies or put it in energy drinks? (hexbear.net)

So after doing a bit of searching I found this article: https://www.uclahealth.org/news/article/3-ways-increase-estrogen-naturally

This seems like a bit more of a realistic plan for designing foods/drinks that help boost estrogen levels. Not a substitute for HRT by any means, but rather something that could supplement/enhance it that is also relatively safe to consume regularly.

What's better than oral e?

[–] pooh@hexbear.net 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Injections. I haven't really done research on it myself, but others told me injections are best and also where to get it, so that's what I've been doing so far. I probably should do more research on this.

So what you're saying is, instead of spiking our energy drinks with oral E, we need to spike our injectable E with energy drinks. I like the way you think! thonk-trans

Edit: DISCLAIMER: Do not, under any circumstances, actually try to do this! E needs to go into either adipose tissue or into a muscle, and energy drinks probably aren't even safe if taken intravenously (and with the carbonation removed).

Injections or transdermally (i.e. patches/gel)
