Real World DIM Experience?

[Metalman69]

Wondering if anybody here has any good experience with DIM and how much I could expect it to lower my Estradiol levels and what's a good daily dose?
I am using Test Cyp. 125 mg/week, Dr. prescribed. (Will probably go back to every 6 days shortly, that seemed to be the best schedule for me)
My trough Test is 474 (348-1197), and Estradiol is 43.7 (7.6-42.6) on my latest blood work.
I am very happy with my treatment and results I have been getting, But I'm pretty sure this borderline high E is messing up my sex life a little. Or maybe I'm just getting older...
Anyway, on the "Bro-Science Morning Wood E - Scale" I'm probably a 2 out of 10.
Gonna talk with my Doc about it in a couple weeks at visit but just wondered if DIM was even worth a try? Doc didn't seem interested in any AI in previous conversations, and I like the idea of DIM being a natural supplement. (But I did buy a bottle of Liquidex from board sponser just in case....

what's your bodyfat percentage? If you get leaner you should get less aromatization of testosterone. Something that really helps libido out is supplementing Zinc. It's an aromatase inhibitor too.

Yeah, My Endo keeps telling me to lose weight, body fat scale (have 2, hand held and a scale) consistently put me around 21%. I know I need to work on it but I kinda feel like it's harder to lose weight with the high E2. I know that sounds like an excuse, but I am working on it. Those damn Docs just look at the BMI chart and mine looks worse than it is.
I tried bi-weekly injections for a while too and my E2 was still borderline high.
Still losing fat, my progress has just slowed. So, you think Zinc, or zinc and DIM together would be as effective as Arimidex?

I'm a big fan of DIM. I've had good results with it with labs to back it up...It's cheap enough and really has no negatives. I suggest you give a shot.

That's what I wanted to hear, can I ask your dose experience and what kind of results you got? And you do take daily, right, not just around shot time like arimidex? I need to lower my estradiol quite a bit just to get in the middle range, as I am over the top right now. Thanks!

I use Nature's Way DIM twice a day (morning/night) from Amazon...4 caps a day is 200mg. My E2 went from the high 30's to the high 20's with DIM only...

Thanks! I'm going to order some, and hope I can "feel" the effects, if you know what I mean.

I am curious if you can take DIM in combination with a AI, anyone know?
