Pretty incredible levels of testosterone, at 1100! I'm surprised that it kept going up even after 2.5 weeks after stopping the SERMs. I wonder if the Aromasin is influencing this. My Estradiol is slowly coming down, and this week I increased my dose of Aromasin a bit to accelerate getting it back into the 20's. And shortly after I did this, guess what happened... My libido came back with a vengeance. I'm pretty sure the culprit was the high estrogen. Lesson learned for next time: start low dose Aromasin concurrently with PCT instead of waiting.
So a happy ending to this story (pun intended). Test is very high which makes for great workouts, a sharp brain and high energy. Libido is great again. I've kept all my gains and strength from the cycle. And as a bonus, my LDL is the lowest it's ever been, which I attribute to the GW and the extra cardio that I've started as I go into a cut to lean out a bit, since the 2-3 weeks of low T and high E definitely made me gain some fat.
In another week I'll stop the Aromasin and 2-3 weeks after will do a final set of bloods to see where my values stabilize. At that point I'll consider this case closed!
it can take months to fully recover.. i recommend you run a full 4 weeks pct.. wait 4 weeks and do bloods.. if you see you haven't recovered youll run clomid at 50mg 3 times a week for a few months to help
