What happened in people?
A small study using honey and propolis containing chrysin found no change in urinary testosterone after 21 days. It did not test isolated chrysin or treatment of diagnosed low testosterone. 1
The laboratory rationale remains a research question; this human result does not establish a testosterone benefit. 1
Does blocking aromatase in a laboratory mean lower estrogen?
The systematic review includes different experimental models with differing results. It does not establish clinically useful estrogen reduction from an oral supplement. 1
Enzyme findings alone cannot predict a person’s hormone response. 1
