目前似乎还没有_明确的直接证据,但有几个角度可能值得探讨:
分子动力学(MD)模拟发现姜黄素是一种稳定的芳香化酶抑制剂(Singh et al 2016)。
芳香化酶抑制剂可作为治疗乳腺癌、子宫内膜异位症、子宫内膜异位症、利肌瘤(纤维瘤)、特发性矮小身材、妇科腺瘤和男性性腺功能减退症的治疗药物,因为它们可以防止雌激素的形成(Le Ray等人2012;Pavone和Bulun 2012;Singh 2013;Hero 2016;Blakemore和Naftolin 2016;Miller等人2016)。

这是相当有希望的,但目前还没有更多的研究。另外,鉴于此一诊断的原因可能https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gynecomastia/symptoms-causes/syc-20351793 )的众多https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/16227-enlarged-male-breast-tissue-gynecomastia )原因。
