Nah, I'm not going there, grapefruit metabolism is too rapid (it's like the H-BOMB of citrus metabolism).
I'll give my own experience here, I've added 2 oranges per day (sliced) and what I think how it changes bio-active hormones.
Lab tests (October)
Total T @ 52 ng/dL
Estrogen @ 510 pg/mL
December
Total T @ 29 ng/dL
Estrogen 814 pg/mL (normals is 200 range)
December dosage was @ 3 mg of E2 (estradiol) per day, previous was 6-8mg estradiol valerate per day).
Spiro @ 50 mg per day, (oct test result was .5 mg per day of dutaseride).
What does this say?, well for starters it's less meds with higher test results, the only difference I can trace is the oranges.
The 1% crazy shit:
Free Testosterone 0.329 ng/dL = 1.13 %
Bioavailable Testosterone 7.54 ng/dL = 26 %
Edit: these are serum results.
