I have tried to taper my arimidex down throughout my treatment and my total estrogen has been in the 130-150's. Not sure how this relates to E2.
But at my current dosing the only way to keep my total estrogen within range is 1mg adex a day.
How do I get my E2 checked?
I just checked my TSH for all my labs. I believe the reason is as follows:
It took a huge downturn in late March of this year when I went on a cut diet. I did HIT cardio on my off days and steady state cardio on my on days for about and hour each time. The HIT was only 20 minutes of the total...
I was giving blood once a month. I was in the 51-52 HCT range on 100mg e5d which I thought was ok, but I am no Dr.
The plan became to drop me to 75mg e5d and donate once a month until HCT at or about 43. No anemia history.
I have always had total Estrogen tested. Never had E2 tested.
I am 46 yo. The reason I didn't return to 100mg e5d is because I was at 1400 test on a trough. So doctor dialed me down some. I used to do 200mg e10d, but at the advice of people on this site I changed to 100mg e5d unbeknownst to my doctor. The end result is more consistent test levels...

Been on TRT for quite a while. Maxed out at 100ml e5d. Blood work perfect.
Jumped up and ran a cycle for 7 weeks of 500ml every week, pinning Tuesday and Friday and 1mg arimidex daily.
I know the arimidex is high but I estrogenize the test quite easily.
Had OK gains, maybe needed to eat more...
Thought I would report back. Since switching to 100 E5D I feel much better and have seen some gains. On my last blood test on a trough I was 1440 total and my estrogen was 68. As a result doctor cut me back, so now I will be dosing 75 E5D. I am due back for blood work in three months. My...
Megatron, IDK if you recall but I made this switch by your suggestion. Appreciate it brother.
I saw the doctor today, he is sending me for a body fat analysis. If I am below 15%, which I know I am, he plans on cutting my doses down and see how my body responds.
He explained that the idea is...
As the titles states, I switched about the beginning of the year and man do I notice the difference in how I feel. Additionally I am making gains in the gym again. However I have an issue. At my previous trough my testosterone was 600. This last time it was 1100!
I see the doctor tomorrow and I...
Megatron: If I pin e5d for more stable levels and I go back to doctor on a trough then my levels would have been the same as my last results?
If so I am due a shot today. I am sure this will lower any E spike I am experiencing and possibly raising my estradiol.
I asked my doctor upon recommendations here about splitting my dose every five days and he got mad and told me that if I did so he wouldn't treat me any longer.
I have considered running a blast and yes I am on 1mg of Adex daily.
Other than the fatigue I felt and small increased...
Doctor put me on TRT back in 2012.
The good:
Recover quicker from work outs
increased muscle mass
The bad:
muscle mass increase not as much as expected. Arms went from 15 to 16.5
1RM have not changed significantly compared to before TRT
I don't have a lot of drive. Guess it could be my...
