Candida and hormones

I noticed that birthcontrol pills are often referred to as a problem regarding candida, maybe PM couyld be a problem as well (like HMR reportedly) ..

cpio - 7-HMR isn't a problem with Candida, but they just won't work, as far as enterolactone conversion, since there isn't enough good microflora for that conversion.

PM Kudzu uses a weaker estrogen mimic, (estriol), whereas birth control pills are a toxic form of the much stronger, estradiol.

It may not be that simple. If candida in its fungi form have a receptor ability to bind estrogenic type molecules,
then it may feed of PM as well as HMR.

cpio - Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case. With 7-HMR, there's two questions on that issue. (1) Would it even convert to Enterolactone in an Candida overgrowth environment and (2) How would it behave?

7-HMR works by using weaker forms (easier to get rid of an not toxic) of estrogens that prevent the actions of stronger estrogens from occupying the receptor. While I'm not sure how this works out in Candida overgrowth, it seems overwhelming the tougher case of Candida, the less likely one will respond to treatment.

PM Kuzdu would be another unknown on this too.

Enterolactone by injection might bypass this problem. I read some studies using this approach. That stuff is probably hard to find.
