Controling my E2

[Spinkter]

What are you other levels like?

see attached. This was before I started ameridex, which I believe I have now went to low. Still low libido but can still function. Tomorrow is a week since last .5 adex, and also due for T shot.

You double your testosterone dose, as you suggested in another post, and you introduce a new variable into the equation, another moving part to be accounted for. This is a long race, not a sprint - be patient. Dose your testosterone as normal.

lol thank you for that, i'll stay the course.

i would do .25mg twice per week, .5mg is too much, youre likely going from too high, to too low.

Concur with Vince. Low E2 can be just as bad (and sometimes worse) than high E2. The number one and two complaints I hear when someone has low E2 is low libido/sex drive, and always feeling tired.

OP,

Stick to your normal test dosage...don't double up anything. One variable at a time, as Coastie said.

Adex is a powerful drug. If you did in fact crash your E2, it's going to take some time for it to rebound. I've heard of many guys here taking a good month or more to fully recover. Don't panic, it will adjust back up again when all the Adex is cleared from your system, and your body makes the adjustment.

Last night was one week with no AI, and continued low E2 symptoms. Really had a difficult time getting erection last night, thought for a moment it just wasn't gonna happen, after what felt like 20 mins of concentration and the wife's physical stimulation we got going. Once up and running everything else was normal. The 20 mins was probably less than 5.

Today I got alot of chores around the house (outside) done but felt so wore out most of the day but pushed through it stayed hydrated etc. Still gotta hit the gym too at 830pm. Although I'm quiet certain it's low E2 as this whole thread reads. I'm gonna pay for the E2 only labs tomorrow just to confirm levels it's $40.00. I realize this could take 2, 3 or more weeks to recover but man this isn't fun since I'm used to sex 3 or more times a week.

I have a question. If someone crashed estradiol, even standard test will shown like 0 estradiol?

I have crashed my estradiol in past and standard test says 40 pg/ml for me. My estradiol came back?

 

[Vince Carter]

The standard, for females, test problem is that it won't read levels that low such as seen in men, let alone report values accurately.

Estradiol, if not continuously suppressed will indeed return over a few weeks time.

Sorry but i dont understand exactly. Standard test says 40 pg/ml for me. It means my estradiol came back? Or it is meaningless 100% ?

 

[trt4me]

I had almost the same thing.
.50 Adex 2 x a week in going is too much for most including me.
When E2 went down to 12 I skipped one of two for the week and I am now using .25 and will retest.
E2 adjustments for myself are seen in 1-2 weeks.

So last night 9th day post E2 crash, Libdo was alot better didnt need wifes help getting going, today 10th day still feeling better. Hopefully im feeling the effects of E2 raising.

 

[Spinkter]

Had a blood draw just to test estridol to confirm suspicion. Still feeling alot better than when I started this thread it's the 10th day now. I'll post results of estridol panel when I get them. Just checkin in for both my self and others who crash in the future and can see my experience.

Thank you for updating.

 

[Spinkter]

I'm definitely in the sweet spot right now, judging by how I am feeling. Now I need advice on when I should re-introduce adex, its dose. Or should I not and maybe wait until I feel like the sweet spot is fading?

 

[Steve Williams]

The standard test is absolutely useless for men because it reads other compounds as E2. Nelson posted an article on the forum. Do a search for "Ultra-sensitive E2"

 

[trt4me]

If you are using the sensitive test I would cut your dose bit continue it but you should mention it to our dr.

 

[Steve Williams]

Here is information on why you should request the proper Estradiol test:

just to update what I changed and im currently feeling good. My script is 200mg a week split. I dropped it to 75 and 75 and saw an improvement in libido. I then dropped it again to 50 and 50, so 100mg a week as of now my libido and pecker are working normal. for so long my total and free test were high along with always having high E2. I focused on the E2 for so long using an AI and was stuck on the roller coaster. Latest bloods came back 1438 total 308 free and 36 E, while on the 200mg a week. I have no blood work since recently changing/lowering my dose since I just did it after getting bloods back on the 21st. So Im wondering if since im sensitive to high E that maybe less of a dose is better in my case for libido.

Everyone is different. There are guys who feel at their best when total testosterone is in the mid-700s. Others have to push the number over 1000. Finding what works is an individual exercise. Good luck!
