Got Blood Work, Looking for Advice

[Chainman]

I'm taking Test C 200Mcg E5D, 500IU Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) E5D, and 1MG Anastrozole E5D. Bloods done 4days after Test shot. I feel great but a few of the numbers seem to concern my PC.

Test Serum 1483
Free Test >52
Estrodiol 13.4
Progesterone .2
SHBG 18.9

Estro a bit low watch for joint pain, sleepy ect... If this happens maybe decrease your Aromatase inhibitor (AI) a bit.

So is that saying that your free test is over 52?

Like dfeaton said, estradiol is on the low side. Many say mid-twenties is what you should be shooting for.

Yes free test greater than 52, is that high? Would it be prudent to cut Aromatase inhibitor (AI) in half and do bloods again in 4-6 weeks? Thanks

Also depends when you took your ai! 1mg is a lot so you could have took blood right after you took your Aromatase inhibitor (AI) causing low numbers.

 

[bigherm2121]

Also imo its better to take your Aromatase inhibitor (AI) at a smaller dose every other day so you can have pretty stable blood levels. 1mg. Every 5 days is crazy. You prob should do .25 eod or .50 ed

I have the same protocol as you and my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) was 15 taking .5 2x week, I'm going to cut my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) down to .25 2x week. Want my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) to be around 20-25 so I would agree to cut back on AI

Closer to thirty is optimal, 28ish

I slightly disagree. E5d causes a spike e5d. Now it depends on the specific Aromatase inhibitor (AI) on what's best. Adex needs to be in the blood or else it will unbind. But the levels will really only be high on the next day and the day after that. In my opinion on e5d, I would do .5 day after and .5 2 days after.

Did u read what i wrote before that? I said did you take bloods after you took your ai? 1mg is a lot of adex and would def tank your e. The half life of adex is approximately 50 hours.

Cutting Aromatase inhibitor (AI) in half, still e5d, will see what that does. Would Nolva be a good alternative?
