What must be happening is that the stunning array of vitamins, minerals and trace elements found in pine pollen simply have an effect that more than counteracts the suppression of the T within it. This is pretty logical as if you provide a guy with all the vitamins and minerals he needs then his T will go up hugely versus a guy without, and the vast majority of people are deficient in many.
For this reason, i cannot see any value in taking the tincture when you can take the pollen in it's natural, cheaper form and get all the vitamins and minerals etc. that are the cause of the rise in LH in the first place. I bet you that if the guy experiencing higher LH on pine pollen tincture took the same tincture with the T taken out, his LH would be even higher.
Not trying to be argumentative, just stating the obvious given the fairly simple workings of the HPTA.....
