Assuming one is on anastrozole for a a few weeks, would the E2 levels stay relatively constantly all else equal or does it continue to drive E2 down over time? Basically what I'm asking is how long does one need to be on anastrozole to know if they are on the right dose?
So after trying injections for 2.5 years I went back to testosterone pellets. I'm one week in and my libido is already coming back strong. I started on pellets 6 years ago and stayed on them for 3 years and they always worked great. I stopped them because every now and then I'd have one that...
I’ve been on TRT for about a year now and taking test 200 cyp @ .4 2x a week along with HCG @ 500 iu’s 2x a week. Started taking anastrazole .125 2x a week about 8 weeks in because a lump develop under nipple. Took tamoxifen, started anastrazole and it cleared up. Fast forward approx 6-8 months...
Hi fellows,
I'm currently taking .125mg of Anastrozole 2x a week. I'd like up my dosage but not by a 50% and .125mg capsules are the smallest I can get and it's important I take them on certain days of the week as I try to match the peaks and valleys of my AI to my T levels. I use this...
Hi guys,
I'm currently 150mg T/weekly (subQ) and feel really good. 2x a week I take 1 capsule of Anastrozole (.125mg). My labs all look really good (T, FT, E2, even progesterone).
My gf and I want a kid and my doc has prescribed 500iu daily of HCG and then bump it up to 2000iu every other...
I'm on a 120mg test C, 2000ui HGC and 1 mg anastrozole a week split into two doses.
Lab tests have historically been stable
Total & Free test is around 1200 - 1300
Free test is around 24 -26
E2 is between 22 - 35
My Doc wants me to stop anastrozole. After all the touted benefits of estradiol...
Hey all - I've been on TRT for 10 months and just found this forum today - what a MASSIVE wealth of information! I've been relying on a single thread on another forum that's totally unrelated to health, and it's been a huge help, but nothing like this.
I could really use your help today; TRT...
So, funny story. (For those that aren’t me lol)
I keep my Arimidex on the left, viagra on the right.
Evidently during cleaning my wife swapped them not knowing.
I took 3 and thought man, I’m getting low. (I wasn’t but hindsight - wrong bottle)
so I’m aware the dosage for full blown cancer...
After asking if the doc could split my dose into twice a week here is the protocol he recommended:
Sunday evening: 75mg Test C taken intramuscularly
Monday morning: .25mg HCG taken sub-Q
Tuesday: 0.5mg Anastrozole
Wednesday morning: 75mg Test C taken intramuscularly
Thursday morning: .25mg HCG...
I was looking for the experiences of guys that have successfully gotten off of an AI. How long did it take to feel better? The anti-AI crowd swear with 100% certainty that your body “just needs to adjust”. Some say a couple weeks and some say a month or so. I have never been able to successfully...
My testosterone levels have been on the higher side since starting TRT. And after my last consultation with my doctor they suggested if I wanted to, I could try lowering my weekly injections from .45 ml twice a week of testosterone with .125 mg anastrazole 3x a week...to 0.37 ml twice a week...
Guys... Need some help.
When I'm high or low with estradiol I'm sensitive where I have a hard time with erections or get soft ones and have no penis sensitivity. Also I have low shbg which is between 13 and 17 depending when taken. My daily dose of test cyp is 30mg and hcg 300iu 2x per week...
Hey guys,
I've been on TRT for about 9 months, and had a very positive experience thus far. Unfortunately, my most recent blood results indicated a couple of anomalies and I was hoping that some of the more knowledgable members here might be able to assist from a knowledge point of view. I've...
I took my first dose of 0.125mg yesterday and now it's like I've run a marathon. Have you guys had similar reactions? Does it stop after a while or is it persistent?
I'm guessing the reason is that it can reduce red blood cell count and I, for genetic reasons, have low hemoglobin.
I'm a 35 year-old with secondary hypo due to chronic illness. My symptoms are ED, fatigue, muscle pain, and low motivation. I hit a major obstacle when I became unable to take an AI due to adverse reactions, I'm now looking for other options.
Here's a summary of my treatment:
Clomid, 12.5-50...
Hi guys, I know that the responses I’ll mostly get is to have my blood tested since it’s been 3 months or more. But I’ve been dealing with dialing in my levels for years now. So I’m looking for some general advice an insight before getting my labs done again. I’ve had to over the years split...
I ran out of my current prescription for Anastrazole and every day since Tuesday, I've been taking some three year old Anastrazole I had left over from another medical provider. I've read that medications generally lose potency as they age but most don't go bad.
Does anyone know if three...
Hi guys,
My first post and grateful this site exists.
I'm about to start TRT and don't get my labs back for a week. I had been on it before but discontinued when hospitalized for some stuff (unrelated and now gone). I'm going to start with 100mg a week of either equal parts (deca, cyp, eth...

I started TRT back in August 2018. My primary care Dr. suspected low T after suspected Gynecomastia (later confirmed with Ultrasound & monogram).

30 hours ago took first dose of hcg 400iu and anastrazole .125 bloating. Gas stomache pain and then finally violently ill puking until everything was out of me followed by extreme dry heaving for a couple minutes until i was sweating shaking pale and sweating. Mucus consistency chunks that...
I just started this week on my new MWF 50mg each injection. The first week has been okay. I am going to avoid an AI if I can. I was just wondering if their are any members on here who do specifically 3 days a week and how it’s been going for them??? Thanks!
So after going over labs today with my doctor. (Not going to post them, just because essentially from all the research I have done on this forum and others things seemed pretty normal.) I will just post the basics real quick tbiugh

SHGB- 26
Prolactin- I can’t...
Here are my labs, I just started seeing a new doctor. These labs are from last doctor awhile ago. My main reason for posting them though, is I am wondering just how much or how little my PA was testing for... thanks.
I’m currently on Dr prescribed TRT at 200mg/week of Test C. My Estradiol is 104. My doctor prescribed 1mg of Anastrozole 2x week. Does this seem like a high dosage? Thanks
Hi
I inject T Enanthate EOD 25 mg Sub Q. My readings are :
Estradiol 29 pg/ml (7-43), Free T 18 pg/ml (1-28), T 4 ng/ml (3-8). SHBG 28.8 nml/l (17-77).
Now, I decided to start with 0.25 mg EOD Armidex to combat my (presumably) high E2, as:
1) My libido is low
2) I have high blood pressure, most...
Hi All,
I was on a really bad TRT regimen for many many years (inject 300mg once every 3 weeks). I did not take HCG with my dose either. I was never monitored nor had blood panels. I was taking this dose from 2010 until 2018. I never bothered to get blood panels or check my hematocrit or E2 or...
My protocol is 60mg twice a week Monday and Thursday. I take my anastrolze on Tuesday ‘.25’.
So Thursday of last week I got my labs done just a quick E and T check. My e2 came back undectable (roche test) and my TT is 1140. Anyways what’s weird is I felt fine pretty much Wednesday - Sunday. Then...
Update:
Ran with the majority opinion; didn’t change anything and waited for the end of week 4 for a retest. Still on the initial, prescribed protocol of subQ injections on a MWF schedule. T-Cyp 25 mg (200 mg/ml – 0.25 ml) along with HCG 300 iu.
Still running the initial protocol with a Defy...
Hey guys I just got recent blood work done and I’ve decided to switch from anastrozole over to aromasin. One reason is I’ve heard there is no rebound and even on a daily dose of arimidex I experienced rebounds in estrogen and very quickly. My protocol for these bloods were - 40mg test cyp eod...
