28mg/day? That's a hell of a dose.

The body of knowledge on hormone replacement isn’t exactly complete.

Could it be that your FreeT is nearly double the top range? Finasteride for this is highly questionable. Less sh*t. Not more.

In my experience with friends, either TRT helps within like a week or it helps never.

Anavar will lower shbg

Take Gman86's full advice and you will not have a hard time finding someone to put you on TRT.

Have you considered trying something like 10mg/day?

ZRT is in Theranos land regarding blood spot tests.

Direct Free T is the totally worthless test.

That's your legit Free T. Range on that Free Testosterone measure is 16-31. @madman is the expert on explaining that stuff.

Or you could just use this: TruT Free Testosterone Calculator by FPT

That would be a good argument to get people to wear a covid mask.

200mg once per week?

I haven’t heard many stories of thyroid treatment actually helping.

Road to 0.

Round and round we go. Where we stop, no one knows.

Treat your low LH

When I was on trt my blood pressure was higher and my pulse averaged in the 90s. Now that I stopped, blood pressure is normal and my pulse is in the 60s when not exercising. Sorry no solutions from me other than reducing/stopping.

What was your pulse before trt?

blood tests are a magic 8 ball.

I would often hit veins in my ventroglute. Thankfully I’m pale and thin enough that i could sometimes see them all.

I think a gallon a day is way lower than the amount you need to worry about washing away essential minerals. Especially if you are active / exercising at all.

Why do you think E2 is way high? See this: https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/predicted-estradiol-and-dht-from-different-testosterone-doses.20830/post-181191

So higher hematocrit doesn't increase blood viscosity thereby increasing pressure on vascular structures over long periods of time (ie: high bp)? https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/hematocrit-trt-systemic-vascular-resistance-response.18114/

Do your tests have ranges?

That is not ideal. If it were me I would start taking 1/4mg arimidex twice per week (half of what you're currently taking).

I’d recommend a gallon a day.

Sounds expensive.

My first thought is to try exercising your anxiety away or lower your dose. TRT and sedentary desk job sometimes don’t mix.

I would like to see studies [15] and [16]. I used 1ml daily of a 0.05% topical fin and it took my dht from the 60s (not on TRT) to 20s on TRT w/ test cyp with levels 1500+ at trough. Study [15] seems interesting at 0.005%. Study [16], I find incredibly hard to believe.

It seems to end up crushing serum dht even when applied topically. Might take longer to tank serum levels than oral finasteride but it will happen. Will drop serum dht by 60-70% over time.
