Actually your body knows how to balance T/E. The sudden increases cause effects. There is an adjustment period. Can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not. If so, just remember this statement above. Listening to knuckleheads on here would have you think that's crazy. The rest of "TRT...

If you want to quit your ai just start taking less and/or less frequently. If you’re experiencing symptoms you think warrant an ai, take a tiny dose. Take less and less over time. Eventually you just stabilize and that’s that. Lots of debate on here, but my conclusion is that the doctors on...

I just asked. I’ve asked about where the limits are, etc. it’s all about the end result and bloodwork. I disagree with the consensus on arbitrary limits here. So does my Dr.

That consistency is what I really have noted since quitting an ai. Libido and all is there 99% of days. I still use hcg as well.

You meant without? Yes, but it took time. Body adjusted. I used tiny doses of ai less and less often.

I would have if high e2 symptoms never went away. I’m on a high dose off 300 total weekly with 1000mg hcg split up daily and don’t need an ai. If bloodwork indicates I should or symptoms come on I will be lowering the dose.

My experience was that I had quite a bit of success with small doses of anastrozole. You’ll have high e2 symptoms, and anastrozole will crush that. You are great. The downside was that I could never keep on a steady regiment of it. I’d have ups and downs with mood and libido. Weaning off of it...

Solid information summed up in one post. It’s weird how some will decide that these findings apply to an exact level when the studies actually aren’t indicating there is a limit to these effects. Hard to let go of what you once knew was a fact.

I have none of the issues you mention. I’ve had other symptoms typically related to high e2 before. They are transient and possibly due to the rise in e2 and not the current level. They can be transient. My protocol is 300mg test cyp a week with 1000mg hcg divided into daily doses. It may be...

Actually they are sharing first hand experience. They are claiming estrogen is beneficial, and therefore more optimal to not suppress. I’ve done my own fair share of experimentation with dosing and ai usage. It’s been right at 2 months now since I quit taking any ai, and this is the best...

I’ve had the same experience for what it’s worth. A lot of what I thought was high e2 just fixed itself by waiting it out.

Notice how each reply in here is an opinion? We all really only have experience with one person. I weened off my ai slowly. I did feel tired at times, erection strength weakened, mood varies, etc. I’d take a micro dose of ai here and there. Basically just less and less over the months. Now I...

I weaned off anastrozole myself. Been off completely the past 7 weeks and feel great. It does seem to me that negative symptoms of elevated e2 may be transient. My e2 last measure was 90.

Well you continue to claim some things that cannot be proven. You’ve ordained yourself the person who gets to decide what is healthiest. We don’t have proof of these things. My statements stand on their own here. I’ll agree to disagree here.

I’m not on the same page or way of thinking as you are here. It’s fine if we call levels above a certain amount something other than replacement. I honestly can’t say what men need to feel like trt is beneficial. AFAIK you don’t either as you are only intimately familiar with the effects on...
