Arimidex=less fat storage so where does it go?

[Güclü_oglan]

I'm big enought to admit that I was wrong about the estrogen/fat burning issue. Never heard of it before. I've been wrong before and I know I'll be wrong again in the future. That's why we're here, to learn.

This board tends to become like family in a weird way. If you can't joke around with your family once in a while, then what makes this board different from any other? Lighten up bor

sorry bro no hard feelings, just got a little upset

Actually there have been studies showing that estrogen does promote fat burning.

True women seem to utilize fat more efficiently than men during exercise....but women also have more fat than men....something to think about. also aromatase enzymes are in fat cells.....so the fatter you are the more estrogens you likely have....easy to lose fat when you are fat

 

[Güclü_oglan]

yes, another thing is a phenom in cows that lacks aromatise are alot fatter then cows where it functions. Same thing with people who don't have the enzyme

Estrogen also inhibits apetite to a certain degree

 

[bigrand]

Yep, estrogens, their receptors and aromitase are present in areas of adipose tissue and without estrogen (lack of arimotase perhaps) those cells cant undergo fatty acid synthesis and storage.

BY the way, here's the original thread that opened my eyes to how complex the interactions among testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone can be:

Why are women fatter than men?

From research done with M-to-F and F-to-M transsexuals, it's clear that by manuipulating T,E, and P levels we give someone a nearly ideal male or female body composition. However it seems to be more the ratio among these than the absolute levels.

yea that makes sence nice link

I spoke to a doctor today aswell and he said that progesterone is one of the biggest factors when it comes to fat-distribution in women. Hehe sometimes these things aren't as easy at seems, but hey if we weren't that complex we would all be immortal
