[QUOTE="strum, post: 102778, member: 18017"] Good morning Eudes, Re the aromasin dose, I would use half tablet twice a week (abbreviated biw) and recheck the estradiol (E2) level and keep below the lower limit of normal (usually 40 but depends on the lab). If the level is still high, I would ↑ the dose to three times a week (abbreviated as tiw) and again recheck the level. This is called TITRATION. This is an important concept in all of biology. Regarding hair loss and estrogen, I have not seen hair loss in men who are being treated with high dose DES (diethylstilbestrol) or with transdermal estrogen (TDE) patches for prostate cancer. If anything, it is the high doses of testosterone that may be a factor rather than the E2. Men who are on ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) to lower dramatically testosterone to castrate levels will lose body hair but some will sprout a full head of scalp hair. I would like to see any peer-reviewed literature citations relating to high E2 as a cause of alopecia (loss of scalp hair). I am here to share my experience but also to learn. [/QUOTE]
