I had someone recently express concern about Lavender being an endocrine disruptor, and the risk of inhibiting androgen levels, and boosting estrogen levels.
A quick search brought up this report from the National Institute of Health (NIH): http://www.nih.gov/news/pr/jan2007/niehs-31.htm
Should Men be concerned about using Lavender topically and internally?
I myself am a user of Lavender, and know its medicinal uses, but I'm also male, and am a little concerned.
Anyone know much about this issue?
