High E2 signs and symptoms???

[ceomuscle58]

I have my follow up labs in 4 weeks since starting testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) two weeks ago. I was just curious what are some signs and symptoms you guys have had when testing high for E2 on your labs?

Thanks,

The only time in my life I had ED was went my E2 went too high. I could get and maintain wood with total test levels of 87 (not a typo) but when my E2 spiked (about 2-3 months after starting TRT), I couldn't get/keep it up.

Here is some good info on E2...

Cry watching a chick flick more than you should. Sensitive nipples. Sure signs. Plus what Nordic said.

I am pretty sure I am going through this right now. No ED, but no desire, either.... like I was before starting testosterone replacement therapy (TRT). I am 7-8 weeks in on 100mg test cyp E7D. I felt awesome for the first 6 weeks. I knew I was starting to get kind of depressed a week or so ago, but kind of chalked it up to stopping one of my other meds. Then, I started feeling like I wanted to cry during a made for TV Disney movie......WTF!? Going to see if I can get a total blood workup done at the doc's today or tomorrow.

lethargy, water retention, depression, grumpiness and not being able to keep it stiff all that stuff is related to your E2. Ever notice your grandma cussing out your grandpa cause he is being such a prick? lol thats cause of his excessive aromatizaton.

when your E2 gets high other things like prolactin can start getting high too. its almost impossible to get prolactin high without E2 being high, at least from what I've seen.

you should try and get it under control, then you can take a blood test and then you will know what works for you. basically what you want is to being feeling great when you get that blood work so you can have a roadmap to success. then you will know were everything needs to be in order to make you feel good.

Once a test has confirmed your E2 is high, what do you do to bring it down without reducing the amount or dosage of test your taking

just kidding.

You need an Aromatase Inhibitor. I have always taken Adex (Anastrozole) as part of my protocol and I believe it may be the most commonly prescribed, but there are others to choose from.

I take .25g EOD and my E2 stays pretty well in check 15-25. Of course this in now way means the same does will work for you, just an example.
