The provided sources explore diverse aspects of hormonal influences and potential interventions in various health conditions. One study investigates the impact of **3,3′-diindolylmethane (DIM)** on estrogen metabolism in patients with thyroid proliferative disease. Another examines the effectiveness of a **proprietary blend of pomegranate and cocoa extracts** in alleviating symptoms of aging in males, focusing on perceived stress and safety parameters. Several sources discuss **testosterone levels in men**, including the effects of aging and exercise, and the potential of **aromatase inhibition** to restore these levels in older men with hypogonadism. Lastly, one article reviews the role of **black pepper extract (Bioperine®)** as a bioavailability enhancer for iron supplementation, particularly in physically active individuals, to combat iron deficiency and improve athletic performance.
