Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
Actually, I like this idea and will try it first. If it doesn't work, will go the compounding (or maybe the DIY) route.- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
Wow. This is really frustrating. Still, if others have had to use such small doses (and they work), then I can't be only one having this difficulty. Thanks to everyone that responded with a similar suggestion. Question- if the API is equally distributed within the tablet such that a quarter of...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
Libido improved after only two weeks then suddenly ED problems again. Out of curiosity checked E2; it was 48 on the labcorp 7-42 scale. Somehow it went too high for me again; my guess is decent to optimal for me is 30-40 which is a narrow window. Not taking any adex. Any suggestions on a very...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
One more question- The time I felt best was back in Nov. when my E2 was 40 with the Quest <=39 scale. It obviously doesn't need to be that high; I'm sure I would be quite content at 30 or over. Since it was 13 end Feb. as posted above (Labcorp 7-42 scale), is it possible I will just sit at a low...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
CoastWatcher, I hear you. I provided some details in response to Ero that should better explain my situation. As you are a moderator- great forum; Ero and some of the stickies gave me enough info/confidence to ask about the twice weekly. Granted, he obviously knew but I had no way to predict...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
Ero, you are obviously really sharp and I'm confident you picked up my saying "depression" was major issue; libido, etc. was second. So I owe you the balance details- He wanted to see me once a week for shots (I refused as I noted) because for people with MDD and taking ADs, moods can go in a...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
As said, he wanted me to get shots every week. Coming in that often was a problem. I can actually make that work, though. So, I will go to every week. Yes, the adex and dose were my idea. I'm posting this because I'm hopeful someone (an experienced patient) will look objectively at my situation...- Finallycured

Can't figure out Estradiol extremes
Hi, I am a 54 y/o doing trt for about 6 months. Dose is 400mg T cyp two times a month. Major issue was depression and lower doses were not that effective but 400mg is effective. The twice monthly schedule is also good; more frequent (one a week) made no difference in mood. Also, re libido, this...- Finallycured

Interesting. I didn't know more frequent injections = less E2. I just called, he (his nurse) said do every week if I am willing. Again, primary issue with me is depression. She said it's a frequent request to help keep mood stable. So, dose is now 200 mg/week for a total of 800 mg/month (no...- Finallycured

Ero, the actual adex dose was 1 mg, not 3mg. A typo, my mistake. Taking that into account, does it look my idea of .25 eod might help or should I start with even less of a frequency (3 x week)? Thank you!- Finallycured

Hi, First time posting. I am very confused about what happened after I took Adex for first time. And, what happened after I stopped taking it. I need some help. Here is history and current issue: Am 52. Started trt last sept. T was 186. E not tested. I will never know why, but doc started me...- Finallycured
