I have really low SHBG and my doctor says that makes me more sensitive to E. I only had the standard E test done but asked for the sensitive test when I get new labs done in a month.
I am not on any AI. This will be the first time one one. I’m currently taking 50mg of test Cyp twice per week for a total of 100mg per week. Besides not being able to loose any weight on trt I have been having some side effect attributed to high E and my doctor started me on this AI.
My Doctor just started me on letrozole and doing some reading on this site I think there was a mistake in my dosage. I’m a low SHBG guy and my last E lab was in the upper range of normal at 44. But I have not been able to lose any weight with diet and exercise, I’m currently 6-0” tall and weight...
Had my doctor's visit this morning. I have a few things on my one after this visit so bear with my rambling.......

Calculating my dosage for twice a week injections is straight forward, but how should it be done for EOD injections when a week is an odd number of days?
Then only thing that comes to mind is to do the calculation on a 2 week / 14 day interval because is an even number of days
Weekly dose...
My doctor is very open to suggestion and I have no doubt he will let me change to twice a week or EOD injections. Before All my previous visits with him after starting TRT I was feeling great and there was nothing to change. This will be the first visit we’re things have regressed and I am...

I had an at home sleep study done in September. The results were that while I had loud snoring my breathing and blood oxygen levels did not indicate sleep apnea. Looking back I was very anxious that night and barley slept which could have screws my results. I might need to have another study done.
I have an appointment with my endo coming up next week and just had some blood drawn for labs. There are several things I want to bring up with my doc based on how I'm feeling and my reading on this site.
My current dose is 125mg TestCyp once per week which I have doing for the past 18 months...
