[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 213760, member: 38109"] I wouldn't increase the testosterone dose, given that free T is close to top of range. Your low SHBG is what makes total testosterone relatively lower. Increasing the dose also won't improve your E2/T ratio. But at 0.32% the ratio is still in a normal range of 0.3-0.6%. With these numbers I would try lower dosing for a period to see if it helps, say 20-30% less. If that doesn't help and you still suspect estradiol is too low then you could consider supplementation. It's less common, but a few of us have tried it. Dosing would be tricky since it takes very little to push your level up a lot. You might only need 5-10 mcg of an injectable product. With a transdermal you'd want to apply more like 50-100 mcg of estradiol. I think you can get bi-estrogen cream over the counter, but you'd need to be sure you can measure small enough doses.
