Does taurine / creatine /coffee worsen gyno?

[Dgc12]

I'm thinking about taking tourine and maybe creatine as well as a supplement (1 g and 3 g respectivelyper day) for his health benefits specifically fitness

I'm also planning to start a morning cup of coffee every morning for cognitive benefits but again read some information. Caffeine can imbalance hormones

But doing my usual Google search for oestrogen plus the supplement, there is one case studies showing these exacerbated gyno

so I was wondering if anyone here knew or have used tourine And if it made the GYNO worse? Would you expect it to?

Consider this:  20 Billion people over 200 years have been drinking coffee... how many men have boobs from that?

From AI:   

Taurine and Creatine in Relation to Gynecomastia:

• Taurine:
  
  • No direct link to gynecomastia: Taurine is an amino acid involved in various bodily functions, such as regulating calcium levels, reducing oxidative stress, and supporting cardiovascular health. There is no scientific evidence linking taurine supplementation to gynecomastia.
  • Potential benefits: Interestingly, taurine may have anti-estrogenic and pro-testosterone properties in certain contexts. Some animal studies suggest it can reduce estrogen levels and protect against testosterone decline caused by oxidative stress.
• Creatine:
  
  • Potential link (indirect): Creatine itself does not cause gynecomastia, but it can increase dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels. DHT is a more potent androgen than testosterone. Elevated DHT can sometimes lead to a hormonal imbalance, which might, in rare cases, trigger gynecomastia—especially in individuals prone to estrogen sensitivity or with pre-existing glandular tissue (like yourself).
  • Studies: A study on rugby players found that creatine increased DHT by around 56% after 7 days of loading, which remained 40% higher during maintenance phases. While this doesn't directly cause gynecomastia, it could theoretically contribute to a hormonal imbalance in some individuals.

Translation:  I don't think you have much to worry about.  

So unless your super sensitive, (I am in some regards BTW) coffee shouldn't have much of an affect.  



Looking into other supplements and compounds is absolutely wise!  So kudos on the question!!!!
