These hormones are basically estrogen and testosterone and you have them both no matter if you are male or female. For discussion purposes the ideal female may have 60% female factors and 40% male factors. The ideal male may have 60% male factors and 40% female factors. Page found that deviation from this ideal causes body chemistry imbalances. Very few people are ideal. For example if you have excess testosterone you are called andric, no matter if you are male or female. If you have an excess of estrogen you are called gynic, no matter if you are male or female. Certain physical characteristics can give you clues if someone is andric or gynic. For example the pubic hairline of gynic females goes straight across the abdomen, in andric females it peaks toward the navel. Generally if your shoulders are broad and your hips are narrow you are more andric and vice versa if you are gynic. Andric males tend to bald on their forehead if they also have the baldness gene. They also have thick necks unless they are very thin. Andrics also tend to have high blood pressure, they think logically, they like to have things their own way, they are often leaders, they can be coarse. Gynics can have low blood pressure, they tend to think more intuitively and they may follow more than lead depending on what their pituitary gland is doing. Everyone is usually one way or the other but sometimes you can’t tell from the physical clues. If you are uncertain , a blood test is first done on a controlled diet. If you then give someone some testosterone and do a blood test and if the blood test comes out worse, then they are andric. You gave them more of what they already have too much of. If you give them some estrogen and do a blood test it will improve because it counteracts the excess andricity. The opposite of this is true if the person is gynic. It helps to know this. For example, if you are andric and you are taking testosterone to build muscles, then you can do yourself serious harm. If you are a gynic female and you are on hormone replacement therapy after menopause, and you haven’t had your ovaries removed, you can again do yourself harm if you take estrogen. You already have enough estrogen, perhaps too much.

Page found that certain diseases are associated with excessive andricity or gynicity. Excessive andricity is often associated with duodenal ulcers where there is excessive hydrochloric acid, high blood pressure, heart problems, periodontal problems (inflamed gums when the serum phosphorus is higher relative to the serum calcium), and some cases of prostatic cancer. Likewise excessive gynicity is responsible for similar gum problems for the same reason. Page also believed that it is responsible for much of the breast cancer, schizophrenia, lung cancer, and cancer of the liver and intestinal tract. Page believed that andric/gynic imbalance " is the cause of much pathology, possibly more than any other glandular disorder ".

The andric/gynic balance also affects marriage patterns because opposites do attract. Andrics marry gynics and vice versa, This can make for a happy relationship unless they are too far apart. After the physical attraction decreases their different interests can draw them apart. Page believed that andric/gynic correction can save some marriages.

It is Page’s use of the sex hormones to suppress an overactive anterior and posterior pituitary gland that is in my opinion one of the greatest discoveries of our time. Not only does it suppress this gland but it also improves the andric/gynic balance at the same time. Andric/gynic correction is extremely important. Unfortunately it is either not done and when it is done a shotgun trial and error approach is used instead of the precise and measured approach of Page.
