    There is no female hormone called "estrogen." Do you mean estradiol? Or estrone? Or, do you mean the cancer-causing metabolite 16-alpha-hydroxyestrone??? I mean, it's difficult to take seriously any study that lacks even a remotely adept reference to anatomy, physiology, or the endocrine system in general. Besides, since cholesterol is paramount to healthy hormone production, this study is rather short-sighted, as the problem isn't with cholesterol at all but instead with the METABOLISM of that cholesterol.
