Methodology
Controlled human study measuring urinary testosterone and related steroid excretion in men after oral chrysin supplementation.
Key Findings
Oral chrysin did not produce meaningful changes in urinary testosterone levels despite in vitro aromatase inhibition.
Conclusions
In vitro aromatase inhibition by chrysin does not translate into measurable testosterone changes in men.
Limitations
Small sample, surrogate urinary endpoints, short exposure, no serum hormone panel.
Supplements Studied
Oral chrysin did not produce meaningful changes in urinary testosterone levels in men.
Outcomes Measured
Oral chrysin did not produce meaningful changes in urinary testosterone levels.
Oral chrysin did not produce meaningful changes in urinary testosterone levels despite in vitro aromatase inhibition.
