It could be that your LH is now shut down and your body is trying to make adjustments to back fill...so you might need to add another hormone to your protocol to back-fill this void and get it back again...dhea and prog did it for me.

I recall Nelson recommending a lab in the Uk that had started carrying out the E2 sensitive test over here. My Doc is very knowledgeable but she runs the normal female protocol e labs and then adjusts for a male. I'm not sure how accurate these are. I can normally detect when things are not...

I live in the Uk so I will ask my doc if she can script me Arimistane...thanks Sammmy

Thanks Guys. Toronto if i dont keep my e in check I get anxiety...I currently take .25mg of arimidex once every 2 to 3 weeks subject to how i'm feeling. My aim is to phase out completely. Tried DIM seems to have little or no effect.Take 50mg zinc a day and have been doing for many years has no...

Found it... this is the substance in the article, Calcium D-Glucarate ...have any members tried this for natural e-control ...would be interesting to see if it works.

Jerry Brainum recently posted an article about a natural substance that was as effective at controlling E as arimidex but with no sides....I think it was an amino acid. Cant find the article now.....have any other members come across this substance and if so can they remember what its called and...

Back down your dosage and phase out...could mean your body has adapted so you no longer require the A ...only requires your body fat levels to drop which well dialled in T will make happen. Labs should let you know where you are.

I always thought that T was the antagonist for cortisol...either one is up and the other would be low. When my cortisol was spiked and my sleep all over the place it was because my T was rock bottom. Once i started my treatment and raised my T level my cortisol levels dropped. Could be a thyroid...

Are you running Niacin, I found that when I was taking Niacin and high dose vitamin D it totally screwed my sleep.Took me a while to sus out what was going on but eventually got round to dropping the Niacin as a process of elimination and found out that was the cause. Dont know the science...

Well NATE1278 you made an excellent choice by signing up to Nelsons forum. There is a mass of info and knowledge with the all these guys so you are in a good place. My advice would be to go for it but be involved and learn all you can about the sides/feelings and not be a passenger with your...

DHEA can follow a couple pathways and increase anxiety in some people subject to to the conversion but I have never heard of it crashing E2 before so I very much doubt if that is the case and without labs you are not really going to know. Must of the guys on here have crashed out one way or...

Just ride it out... it passes shortly and as Vince saize a lot of guys get it in the settling in period once starting therapy.

I was running doses of 500mg 3 days times a day as recommended by my dietitian....i was on this dose for over 12mths...never made any difference to my LDL though Pushed my daily blood blood sugar reading up over over 5.5-6 mmol/L even though my diet was dialed in tight.....that said my HBAC1...

I was running high dose niacin to help with the an old LDL issue. But I had a couple of problems manifest from doing this...one it pushed up my blood sugar levels and the second was a bit more complex to detect. I have always loved the sun, worked out in it in the Uk for most of my life with no...

I have mine done every 6 mths just for peace of mind...if I feel off piste and a tweak is required then a spot draw can be useful to keep things in check...

Here in the Uk you can run the labs...called fractions where they drill down into whats going on with your ldl looking for the bad guys. As my LDL is raised and tends to stay there I thought I better have a closer look at where i was so I had the fraction labs run in Jan...all was good but its...

Been on T-gel now close to 3 years.....dose 3 times a day...on waking, middle of the day and evening...maintaining levels in the upper area...rotating sites and using moisturizer to enhance absorption.....no problems with my lady shes happy and smiley, never been a problem with a little...

Uk labs

I live in the UK which doesn't have the sensitive test...at first I had no E2 control in my regime and crashed big time ...anxiety,BP up you name i had it...My general Gp had never even heard of e-control...so now I work with a Harley street doc and run .25mg twice a week and boy do you know it...

My recent labs have shown my Hct & Haemoglobin are at the upper levels.......3 years on T and they seemed to have settled down around this level...my docs happy. What I have noticed is my GFR rate has dropped to 77 ...i'm guessing this would be normal if the platelets have thickened up its going...

Here in the UK my lady is on Bio hormones... E2, Prog and DHEA all compounded creams...they have totally transformed her into a new woman...she is post menopausal and has her 60th bday this year and we are having a ball. She is now hitting the gym and I cant believe my luck ...lol.......bring it...

I have used a post workout shake that heals the shoulders. But I used it before I was on T therapy so i am not sure if it would work for me now...but it definitely worked and healed them after around a week or so......this was several years ago when I had a nagging problem....guess i would of...

DHEA ....as Vince points out it always one to watch...that and thyroid can really help with feeling good and benefiting from your protocol....def no feedback loop with DHEA........just have to watch it doesn't take the E pathway.

I would go along with madman...if i drop my carbs to low it trashes my sleep......if I go lower than around 75g of low gi carbs my sleep turns to crap...it took me a while to find the sweet spot where I am dropping BF but sleeping good...tried to tough it out on several occasions but it was...

I'm on .25 of a tab every 4 days....if i miss it I know about it, start to feel like crap and look the same...as LF commented we are all different. One supp that did make a hell of a difference to me was Al-carnosine helped me big time in the orgasm/sensitivity department. I dont eat a lot red...

Thanks guys. I live here in the Uk. I work with 2 sets of docs ......it was my local GP who flagged this up in a routine blood T...and started flappin hence why I thought i had better cover my back. Wasn't overly concerned but my BP had stepped us as well, within range but on the higher side...

As you say guys could just be a spike and not a trend...so I have booked CBC again for three months time just to keep an eye on things. I was just wondering if any other member had modified their diet or supps to help matters stay on the right side of the line. Thanks...Dt

Hi Vince Been on T-Gel now around 2 years...started of with 2 applications a day then upped it to 3 doses a day .....150mg in total along with 5mg of prog.......T level is now in upper range, free T good as well. Has always been below 50 ...last labs showed 48.5 ...& then 49. I have recently...

just had some labs done and my levels have crept up to 50.5 ....I am normally under 50. Researching this I have picked up on a couple of items and wondered if any other members have come across these. If you dig deep enough you can find a connection between high e2 and increased htc....as I...

frosting At first I was getting poor absorption....my doc at the time was less than useless...on researching i could see i was getting what Dr J Crisler terms as frosting ...gel sitting on the skin and not absorbing...once I sussed this and started moisturizing ...bingo my T levels went up...

Absorption issues can be sorted with a moisturizer...I use an organic one which takes around the same time as the t-gel to be absorbed ..which I rotate the sites I use so I am always good to go. I do suffer from aromatisation so i have to keep this in check with a low dose of arimidex. But I...
