Licorice root may seem to cure or help guys but here's what is more than likely the case...

Based off memory...Licorice raises testosterone but is apparently a 5ar inhibitor. Some guys will feel great because of that test boost, but it is more than likely at the cost of 5ar/dht.

Licorice is a common food in the diet of many east asians, they eat it from childhood, and mothers probably eat it when pregnant. You are what you eat, make your own connections...


It also helps with bile production if I'm not mistaken. A lot of things that reduce 5AR help us so if this is part of the mechanism it would help theoretically. Also consider that the sodium retention will retain estrogen and potentially help sensitize dht since eatrogen actually sensitizes androgens. It increases mRNA of the androgen receptors. So the 5AR inhibition combined with this could be a major factor

Cycle near everything. And risky things or things you don't want to take, microdose them (life long - no major drug effects). I mean real drugs: shrooms, mmj, wine, licorice, or this, that, and the third... not bs like FIN. And hard drugs too. Esp if you need them lifelong (a prescription), that way tolerance and damage is mitigated.

I could do this with illicit things and so prescribed things it's far easier (minus insane meds like FIN or Effexor... effexor I was like 19-21 so didn't know really either).

ALTHOUGH if I didn't get fucking 5mg pills and got 1 or .2mg (like in Japan), I'd have cut those or grinded them... and taken a tiny fraction. Fuck. Well at least super strong now. I'll get rich as fuck and replace lost hair with new technological innovations, then deal with those responsible, after becoming more Godlike. Tried too sick then, ppl thought made it up... gonna be enraged till the end of time now. I told all responsible to fuck off and that they are mostly garbage. Some more when I move back. Fucking cunts.

You could cycle or microdose all kinds of things and have near nothing negative happen to you. For instance, LiOr (still lean, still can lose fat - ripped usually anyways but for Randro - water retn), MMJ (should be horrible to people with my dx, and usually is, but 2.4mg -- sleep, or calm down), choline (and cycle off). You could do it formlessly and never even think about it after a few days. This gets rid of a lot of stress. --only time ever at risk of major health was when I had to obsess about potential side effects-- pharma drugs. People into psychadelics do this too (I don't, I don't need those things). Also, you could with food and calories in general. I don't cycle terrible calories, but hel Alternate day fast, be lean, skinny if you want... forever, with zero cardio (zero running) if you want. Cycle whatever. Not saying cycling roids all the time has no problem, I'm just saying this is a common practice for all non insane drug users.

I think maybe you can cycle or micro dose Licorice but it may not be wise for a developing child or teen to ingest.

-No one should injest anything until brain is fully developed (and also sexual maturity). But, I mean it's not a perfect world. Yeah I mean seasoned adult substance users mostly.
-SOLO, Licorice Root won't cure jack. Even for guys with 1-2 symptoms remaining and no other symptoms after 10 yrs. Could help me potentially, but not a priority (TEI is higher on list).

-Helping Bile production does sound good tho.
