39 years old, low bodyfat. Workout six times a week.
Current protocol:
150mg test cyp injected once per week
300iu HCG injected sub Q twice per week
Have anastazole, but have not used it yet.
Labs were done at different labs with different reference ranges.
Baseline labs (in July):
FSH: 1.3 (1.6-8)
LH: 0.9 (1.5-9.3)
TSh: 1.13 (0.4-4.5)
Prolactin: 2.9 (2-18)
Estradiol: 27 (> 39)
Total Test: 315 (250-1100)
Free Test: 62.1 pg/ml (35-155)
Hemoglobin: 16 (13.2-17.1)
Hematocrit: 49.1 (38.5-50)
Labs after six weeks of TRT:
Total Test: 884 (348-1197)
Free Test: 37.1 pg/ml (8.7-25)
Estradiol (sensitive): 44 (8.0-35)
DHEA: 190.5 (102.6-416.3)
Progesterone: 0.2 (0.0-0.1)
I experienced some nipple itching for a few weeks about three weeks in, but not that bad. No other symptoms of high E2 besides maybe some more crankiness now than I was when I started the protocol.
The protocol overall has made me feel like a new man. The cloudiness in thinking is gone; the low grade depression and anxiety I've had since I can remember is gone. Been having gains in the gym. Feel better and look better.
But, I don't like that the Estradiol was considered high on the last test.
At 44, is my estradiol high? Do I have to start thinking of the AI?
Thanks.
