Please help. Reandron 1000 and AI.

[CJ_SPARTAN]

Hey everyone I am new here.

I hope you guys can help me out.

Cut the long story short.I was diagnosed with low test levels and was feeling like complete shit for many years. So I decided to do something about it.

my doctor decided to put me on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) to see how I respond to it. He is treating me with reandron 1000 but it doesn't seem to be helping me. Still feel lethargic and no libido and haven't been able to get an erection for years now.

1 month after my shot I had another blood test and my e2 levels were at 170 ( reference range is 150 so it was over borderline high and my test levels were at 13 still.

my doctor is kind of clueless when it comes to treating hormones and I feel like he might end up killing me

I had to do research all on my own and asked him to prescribe me with aromasin and adex to lower my e2 levels

so I had another blood test and these are my results

LH - 2
E2 - 70 ( reference levels 150)
Testosterone 13 ( reference levels 10.0 to 33)
Free testosterone 50 ( reference levels 60 to 130)

as you can see my E2 levels have come down but my test levels are still low.

I have no idea what I am doing. I have been taking half a pill of aromasin everyday and not sure that is the right thing to do

please guys. I really need help. Should I continue with the reandron 1000? what Aromatase inhibitor (AI) should I be taking?

I have adex, novadex and aromasin at home

any advice is much appreciated. I just want to get better

Uh... Your test is only 13??? Is it like highly scaled or something. My lowest test was 280... And now at 850...

Hey mate

yup I am not sure

its measured in nmol/L

not sure what that means though.

 

[Spunkey71]

My test level before I started testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) was 64 so I am sympathise with your situation.

Hey mate

yup I am not sure

not sure what that means though.

It is a unit of measure. Whereas the 280 is in ng/DL. That's why you always have to include reference ranges. Numbers alone are not very helpful.

Thanks guys

anyone recommend where I should go from here?

should I continue with Aromasin with a daily dose? and should I switch from Reandron 1000 to sust?

 

[Megatron28]

Use Test cyp or Test E and inject every 3.5 days. Normal dose is 100-200mg per week. At a minimum, inject every 7 days. Monitor your estradiol; but you very well may not need an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) if you inject every 3.5 days.

Thank you so much for the reply man

I will let my doctor know about this, but I am very worried. He has no clue when it comes to things like this, he even told me I can take as much Aromatase inhibitor (AI) as possible because he thinks men do not need estrogen...

I might change doctors.

Im assuming your in Australia mate? Or perhaps the UK? If so did your doc do the loading phase for reandron? From memory its a first shot then 6 weeks later another shot then adjust every 8-12 weeks from there or something like that? Also from what ive been told reandron takes a while to accumulate ive been told up to 12 months.

 

[toco]

But perhaps tell him to change you to test e and inject as stated e3d. BUT problem with this is ive talked to many guys on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) and docs wont go any less than fortnighltly injections. So your probably going to just have to shoot 0.5ml per week and save the other half ml for another time. But I would stikc with reandron, just give it some time to accumulate and make sure your doc has done the loading phase.

 

[CJ_SPARTAN]

Hi mate I am from oz

Yup I made sure the doc did the loading phase. I have been on reandron for 3 months now. So you think I should stick it out and see how I feel in 12 months?

 

[CJ_SPARTAN]

Hey guys

sorry for the bump

but can someone explain the difference between nolvadex and aromasin?

should I take them both in conjunction with each other?

Hey Spartan, just wanted to see how you were going with the Reandron? Have you started to see an improvement yet? What dosage are you on?
