I'm a 26 year old man and I just tested testosterone at 691.2 ng/dl (24 nmol/L) and estradiol at 40 pg/ml (147 pmol/L). The E2 is just below the upper ref limit in Sweden, which I believe is too high at 150. In any case my E2 is clearly high and needs to be lowered. I'm increasing my zinc picolinate intake from 15 to 30mg a day, along with more copper to keep the balance. I'm going to shed as much body fat as possible. What else can I do to get it down? Should I take chrysin + piperine or such?

Latest blood test (early May) showed my estradiol at 156 pmol/L, up from 147. Excess estradiol in men doesn't exist as far as the Swedish medical field is concerned. I'm seeing a few doctors now but I'm doubtful any of them will offer treatment.

Actually I took 3mg melatonin every day for a while late last year, and lost fat on my chest, handles, and ass without any other changes. Taking it now messes a bit with my sleep, though, so I'd prefer a straight aromatase inhibitor like Arimidex.
