Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Men and Estrogen: This is a common problem, especially if one is overweight. Those darn fat cells make too much estrogen. So, if the fat is diminished the estrogen is diminished and one's natural testosterone production can indeed increase. So, yes to your question.
