About this study

The goal of this study is to determine if estradiol and progesterone are involved in appetite regulation and energy balance. The study aims to complete a 13 day randomized controlled trial (RCT) where oral supplementation of estradiol only, progesterone only, a combination of each, or a placebo in young males will be provided. During the supplementation period, participants will complete two in-lab sessions where they will complete an acute bout of high-intensity interval training or a period of seated rest (completed on separate days by each participant) and have blood samples and perceptions of appetite measured taken over the course of the in-lab sessions. At the end of each session participants will consume an ad-libitum meal and participants will also track free-living energy intake and wear a thigh-worn accelerometer to measure energy expenditure for three days (day before, day of, and day after) each in-lab session.
