I am following this thread as well. I agree with Muscle Mechanic, I don't care about the number as much as the feel. If my estro gets high, I can feel a lump growing under one nipple and I up my anti estros until it goes back down.
 
I hear you guys. I finally feel pretty good now. I have soreness in the nipples but no lumps. I'll keep things as is and see how I feel and adjust accordingly.
 
just read through this post. after reading you first one, i wondered why you were dong an ai with just a trt dose. it was the first i considered you had done was crash your estro. as for hcg and keeping the boys hanging a little, i prefer not having that banging bag getting squashed all the time. heck, mine still drop even on cycle sometimes, lol. if your concerns about the estro are still there and you think you might need something, though, i'd consider a serm first, nolva or clomid, before an ai. i could of used a serm or an ai when i was a natty. i convert test to estro i think at a higher rate than most and developed gyno as a natty, especially after 50. you know old man boobs, lmao.
sound like you're getting it adjusted though, and that's good.
 
Sounds like you have a serious case of Human nature lol, sorry, not trying to make light of it, just being stupid, cause I use to say that to my wife all the time or use to when she would get anxious before we knew how bad it was, or rather before i knew how bad it was as she always said it was terrifying. My wifes anxiety is like nothing i have ever seen before, nor heard about people being this bad until talking to doctors and therapists etc.. SHE is notorious for making mountains outta mole hills, but she is bipolar and when i tell you its bad, i honestly can not describe it with words. Manic over the dumbest shit, talks a mile a minute like shes all coked up, or she doesnt say shit at all. So i get it and i hope you figure it out, they had my wife on all kinds of shit until they found what works best for her, so hopefully you get it figured out.

I know it can take years to finally diagnose an ongoing issue. Hows your memory? Short term specifically? I ask because thats finally when my wife got serious about doctors. She would ask me to come home early from work, and take her and kids to go out to eat, and i would get home 30 minutes later and she would be in her pajamas and didnt remember asking me to come home and go out and it got to the point where i wouldnt even say shit, i would just act like i just got done work and not bring it up otherwise world war 3. Anyhow, thats why asked about memory. I know "bipolar' sounds bat shit crazy, and it can be, lmao, until your on the right meds. Then its daily life business as usual, with a few manic spots here and there lol.

I do hope you get to the bottom of it brutha man! And Not suggesting your bipolar! Just pointing out my wife shared similar issues and she is in fact bipolar. Thast all

lmao, presser, but i know what you mean. my daughter is bipolar and i'm glad she's old enough to be on her own, because it gets to be a real trip with her. when she wasn't medicated, it was like a box of chocolates. didn't know what you was going to get from one moment to the next.
 
Ok guys here is the update with my last round of blood work. I have been feeling pretty good and the acne has subsided. The doctor said everything is looking great but I still feel that Estradiol results are a bit high. I was considering splitting my dose and injecting twice a week but doctor says that I shouldn't change anything. What do you think?

T Total: 845
T Free: 29.5
Hgb: 16.5
Hct: 46.8
ESTRADIOL, SENSITIVE: 43.1

Previous results from July

T Total: 920
T Free: 34.7
Hgb: 16.5
Hct: 48.9
ESTRADIOL, SENSITIVE: 10.8

How many days out were you when you had your blood drawn?
 
Splitting your dose will help with your E2. I pin every 3.5 days and that's it. Now if you decide to split your dose you may feel out of it for a week or so. It's just your body adjusting to the new dosage. Keep us posted.
 
Try pinning like 100mg of test prop eod and you'll notice within a week if test will make you feel better or not. If it's depression, try doing some HIIT cardio. 10-15min is more than enough.
 
Back with an update. It has been about a month since I started splitting up my 200mg/week dose of cyp. I am now injecting 2x a week (M and Th). Hair has stopped falling out and acne has been reduced. I still get some on my face here and there but that I expect. Lumps under nipples have gone down but there is still some sensitivity. Overall, I feel pretty good. Hoping maintain proper levels for a while so I can blast in spring. Thanks for the support guys. I will continue to report back with updates.

Thats awesome news man! You never know what little adjustments here or there will do until you try
 
I'm late to the party here, but I also pin 2x per week amd don't use an ai. Regarding estrodiol level, the rario of estrodiol to testosterone is important, not just the estro number. I feel beat with my test around 1000-1200 and estro in the mid 40's. But I'm like MM and Chihuahua in that I quit giving a shit about the number and go by how I feel.
