The starting dose for miscarriage treatment was 5mg per day (and often reached 125mg per day or more towards the end of the pregnancy - more than 40 times the dose required to chemically castrate an adult man). <br />Given that testosterone plays a crucial role in driving male sexual development in the unborn child, what do you think DES did to the DES sons who were exposed to it in the womb? Not surprisingly, most of the ones I've been in contact with over the last 18 months are physically and/or psychologically intersexed, and problems with fertility as well as endocrine problems and hypogonadism appear to be really common as well. Why do you think there are so many middle-aged men undergoing sex change procedures? It's not due to some sudden craze for gender diversity; it's because exposure before birth to female hormone treatments such as DES (or the drug that replaced it, hydroxyprogesterone caproate) is creating large numbers of people with male bodies but heavily feminized brains!Hughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11023840719337673405noreply@blogger.com
