Question, estrogen is high on cant remember the scale but the range high was like a 42 and and I am almost a 53. I am on 100mg of E every 6 days and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) every other day. I can tell my testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) has not been as good for a while. Good thing is my E is the same on Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and without. Another good thing is I am working with the Va and the endo was a no go on everything but T, but the uro will do everything, hes not as aggressive as a clinic which is fine personally id rather play it safe. But question is can having high E be the reason losing the weight is such a bear.

Are u going to start taking ai's to address the high estrogen or dial back on your test or consider dropping the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG)? I would imagine the water retention & bloating caused by the high E would have an impact on your inability to shed weight.

The uro wanted to see blood before he gave me an Aromatase inhibitor (AI), which the results posted is what I just had done, but dont have an appointment for another week, but im sure he is going to give it. Like I said my e count was almost the same before and on Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG), so I dont think it warrants coming off specially since my overal T count is only like 400-500, plus my sperm count is low so must stay on it.
 
I hear you bruh about staying on it. Are you experiencing any other sides of high estro? I remember your older post regarding dosage questions. What dose did you settle on?

To be honest with you the inability to lose specially on an agressive diet work out regime, I would say probably some brain fog goes on and off, and some mood swings. But really the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) didnt really spur anything different.
 
That's the weird part. According 2 my hrt guy & along with a few published reports touted Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) as a weight loss enhancement tool. I think it has 2 be run @ a higher dose than I'm running in order for it to have weight loss benefits. I'm only running 600iu's weekly & that's just because I want to keep the boys looking fuller.
 
Yeah, high E is a pain in the arse. My E came back at 80 last week and I started an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at .5 mg every 5 days. I'm pretty sure thats not a high enough dose as I don't feel any better and my research has shown that some guys require 1 mg EOD or every day to get their numbers down. I'm at 26.67% BF at 280 pounds and 6'3 and I suspect that my fat stores are causing the aromatose process to kick into high gear. The problem is that I don't want to take an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at .5 mg E5D for three to four weeks only to get bloodwork again and have it be high. Then I would have to up it, wait another few weeks and get more bloodwork. From what I'm hearing from these guys, high or low E is quite easy to discern and adjsuting your medication until you feel better is kosher. For the record, I'm on 150 of T-cyp by injection E5D for 500 of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) two days prior to every injection and the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at .5 mg the day of or the day after each injection. My sysmptoms are moodiness, feeling out of it emotionally, ED, lack of libido and depressed feelings at times. Good luck with your protocol and please keep us up-to-date on your prgress so others may see what may have helped you along. Cheers!

I have read a lot on that as well, just google it once. But I have also read a lot of nay saying as well who knows. I basically run 250 eod, which depending on the week is either 1000 or 750 ius a week. I think im going to start doing 500 like on monday and thursday.

Whats funny is that my e level was the same before Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and when I tested for E before while on just T I was doing 160mg of Test e6d. The recent test was the same when I was on the Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) and 100mg of test every 6 days. The issue was my PCP started me and did not do all the test right away. She did ok, on testing most things, but left out Estrogen so I dont know what it was before anything. At this point I am kind of thinking higher estrogen production was a problem from the start. And because of the excess fat I have and the higher estrogen its like a never ending cycle dont matter what I do. I am hoping the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) will help.

The new doc seems pretty onboard with things. I have plenty of Test to do extra, and his thing is he wants a10:1 ration of Test to E. Really I dont think my E is to terrible just enough to keep me fat and enough to make me feel kind of terrible. But since I know his ratio, all I have to do is add test before a blood test and that should shoot the E up. Well see what happens
