Thanks Dr Saya. I'm due for a follow up in March so we'll discuss what I should do then.

Thanks for your reply. I know that we all respond differently but it's good to hear from others like yourself.

Thanks for the post Dr Saya. When switching from e4d to ed injections should a guy expect to feel some low T symptoms until a steady state is achieved?

Lol. I just know you would love me if we met in person. I thought I read a couple posts where guys were using 29g x 5/8" needles. I googled and found nothing. Maybe it was a typo and/or I'm over thinking this stuff.

Thanks for the link but those are 1/2". Does anyone have a link to the 29g 5/8"?

I saw where you posted before you used a 29g 5/8 needle. Is that a one piece or just the needle? I've called the local pharmacies and non can even find that size.

51 years young. 6' and 265 lbs, but not obese at all but could lose around 40 lbs. I walk by a gym and grow muscle lol. I actually started riding a bike to get away from the muscles and now my quads are huge. I've been on prescribed test cyp for over 1 year now. IM e4d for the most part. Tried...

Is anyone doing every day IM injections? If so what gauge and length needle? I tried subq eod but my total and free T plummeted and e2 shot up.

I actually have Copenhagen in right now! 51 years old. Dipped/chewed over 20 years, then quit for 12 yrs and started back. And married to a dental hygienist to boot! Nicotine is very powerful and addictive. Through those 12 years I wasn't dipping I was coaching football and would be around those...

Thanks Nelson and G123. None of the local pharmacies carry Watson, Sandoz, or Pfizer, so I guess I'll try the generic.

I also suffer from anxiety and have had panic attacks off and on since a teen (I'm now 51). I take Celexa and Xanax and have for a long time. My Dr started me on 200mg shots of test cypionate and I just couldn't handle it. It would cause my anxiety to spike for days! That was over a year ago and...

Is there any difference between big name depo test and generic? I purchased my last 2 10ml bottles of Pfizer Depo Testosterone from Costco for around $58. Now they stock generic brand West Ward. I called several local pharmacies and most all have this brand. They can order the Pfizer but the...

Blood work every 4 weeks. IM yielded total T @ 725+, above range free T , and E2 that didn't require an AI. Switched to subq and watched total and free T steadily drop over a 2 month period and E2 rose to highest level ever. I wanted so bad to do subq as I don't like the idea of scar tissue...

subq produced higher E2 levels for me vs IM. Also lower total and free T on subq.

I was doing IM and my total T was 725+, free T 30.3 (above range), and good E2 levels. Switched to EOD subq and total T and free T dropped (free T down to 13), and E2 rose to highest level ever. Now I'm back on IM. We're all different. Just because something is working for 99 other guys doesn't...

It's only 6 days until my follow up so I'll wait and see what the Dr says. Thanks for the input.

One more thing worth mentioning. I have a prescription of 1mg Anastrozole tablet from the local pharmacy that I cut into quarters and I also have a prescription of compounded .25mg capsules, and I really believe the capsules are not as potent as the pills I quarter.

Yes the swelling in the face went away and helped with ED too. I've read that low E2 symptoms are similar to high E2, but I've been able to perform great sexually with E2 in the teens. I do notice popping in the knees and some kidney pain at times but that's it.

My follow up is 9/15 so I'll stop the anastrozole until then. Thanks guys.

I was put on Anastrozole when labs showed my E2 got up to 54. I have never experienced nipple itch/sensitivity but my face would look bloated and ED (sometimes bad) for a few days after injecting. Does keeping E2 20-50 apply to everyone, or is it possible some are more sensitive?

Thanks Nelson. In Sept/2014 when my Total T was 395 my E2 was 16.5. Should one expect their base E2 to increase somewhat when on TRT? Is the T/E2 ratio important?

Hi all. I'm on Dr prescribed Test Cypionate, HCG, and Anastrozole. My last 2 labs have shown high T/E2 ratios. From a couple months ago; Total T 731 (348-1197) Free T 18.9 (7.2-24) Sensitive E2 9.5 (8.0-35) Last week; Total T 771 Free T 18.5 Sensitive E2 13.4...

I just bought 10ml Pfizer depo test cypionate 200mg/ml from Costco for $53.

Update; I took .25mg of the Anastrozole on 4/28, 5/02, and 5/06. No more. Had labs on 5/13 (7days after last AI dose) and below are my results. Testosterone 688 (348-1197) Free Test 13.6 (7.2-24)...

That's all I needed to hear. Thanks Nelson

I have been ordering Ultra-sensitive E2 thru DiscountedLabs which has been #500108 and says "Estradiol, LCMS, Endo Sci". Ordered same thing this morning from them and received order of "Estradiol, Sensitive", which is #140244. This isn't the ultra-sensitive is it? What's the difference?

Thats a good reason! I'll include Prolactin and post results when I get them. Thanks much!

Why prolactin?

Gene, my libido is down quite a bit but that's the only other symptom other than the crappy mood. I don't have a lot of energy but didn't before, and feel hot most all the time. I was so hoping subq would benefit me as I use 31g 5/16 and injecting is a breeze. I'll have T, free T and ultra...

Well it's only been 10 days since I started the Anastrozole. So far I'm still doing 25mg subq EOD and have taken .25mg E4D of the AI (3 total) and for the past few days my mood has been bad! I feel PO'd at the world. My poor wife. Is it too early for more blood work or do I need to wait it out a...

Thanks for the input Gene. I really appreciate it. Nelson, I asked my Dr yesterday for a prescription of Novarel and he said no way. I really didn't think he was going to prescribe the AI. If I dropped the AI and added HCG wouldn't that increase my E2 even more? I really appreciate your reply...
