Just came across this article whilst looking for something else and don't recall seeing it posted before. I thought it might be of interest.
Hi , thanks for posting this, I’m interested in info re possibility of increased susceptibility to Covid, with reduced oestrogen. I’m not going to stop taking my oestrogen busters (Anastrozole) but I like to be informed. Forewarned etc. I looked at the 2 main authors of this paper and they both look eminent in their fields, both in Turkey and internationally. HFxx
The link to low oestrogen was made last summer, and given as one reason more younger men than women are very ill. I stopped my exemestane in November when it combined with my Zoledronic acid infusion sent me fo A&E with blood pressure of 193/92 approx and everything spinning for days. They did it was chemically induced and took a short break, but didn't restart as planned as later that month my daughter caught covid at school.
