Don't get fat: Fat tissue actually synthesizes estrone which is a female hormone. Believe it or not, everyone has both male and female hormones present- obviously though for the male gender there's much more 'male' than 'female' hormones in circulation. Think of "man boobs" for example- don't let excess fat get the edge. I believe cutting body fat to an absolute minimum may help u out here.
