[QUOTE="Marco N Cognito, post: 24659, member: 13"] Thanks for getting back. Good you're getting a 2nd opinion, but I would be surprised if a cardiologist will have the knowledge base you need when it comes to HRT in general, as most will just side with all the crap studies that say TRT causes strokes, heart attacks, and clots. I agree with your prescribing doc. TRT is not necessarily the trigger and I find it nothing more than an assumption on Dr. G's part that your episode was related to an interaction between the TRT and LA. So, you're still on TRT and Eliquis? Did you ever stop the T? How long had you been on it when you had the clot and was that prior to being on Eliquis or any anticoagulant? Since that clot, have you experienced any new ones? What's your age? Had you experienced any clots prior to taking T? Any chance you knew what your RBCs. MCT, HGB and E2 were when the clot presented? Glueck says that E2 >42 is the major thrombogenic trigger. So, my question would be.....so long as you make sure and keep serum E2 levels <42 + anticoagulant prophylaxis, then would the so-called risk of clot induction from TRT be minimized? I don't think anyone can answer that with any certainty at this point. [/QUOTE]
