Summary
He reported a chronic illness with high estrogen, gyno and severe underweight at 55 kg; a doctor told him his bloods were fine at 18. He illegally acquired an anti-estrogen after a doctor would not prescribe one, and within days had huge improvements in energy, though he said it did not fully resolve his illness. He later found selegiline controlled the gyno without an anti-estrogen.
