[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 20427, member: 2624"] For the past nine weeks I've been injecting 60mgs of test enth every 3.5 days. Results on a "peak" (24 hours after injection injection): Total Test: 1035 ng/dL (348 - 1197) Free Test: 20.3 pg/mL (7.2 -24.0) Estradiol (Sensitive LC/MS/MS): 55.6 pg/mL (8.0-35.0) SHBG: 27.3 nmol/L (19.3-76.4) Results on a "trough" (just prior to injection): Total Test: 733 ng/dL (348 - 1197) Free Test: 14.0 pg/mL (7.2 -24.0) SHBG: 22.8 nmol/L (19.3-76.4) Estradiol (Sensitive LC/MS/MS): 31.8 pg/mL (8.0-35.0) Even on twice-weekly injections I clear testosterone more quickly than I'd like, but I feel great. The estradiol level might suggest concern, but applying the ratio that Nelson and others use as a factor in evaluating e2 puts me in a comfortable spot at the peak and only slightly above the suggested value at the trough. As noted, I do fee good. Would you agree that there is NO NEED for an AI? I would think any adjustments could be made by pulling the total test dose from 60mg twice-a-week to 40mg. But I'm inclined to leave as things as they are, enjoy how I'm feeling, listen to my body, and test regularly. But I would appreciate any thoughts as to this approach. [/QUOTE]
