I have a similar story, just haven’t been on TRT for as long.. but I thought and was told I needed an ai because my e2 was 72.. turns out I didn’t need the ai, I dropped it 3 months ago and went to daily injections . And feel so much better.
It’s not that I won’t pay $50 for a blood test, the reason I said I’m still blind is because I just got my bloods drawn 2 weeks ago. It took a week for them to come back, when they did come back apperantly it’s the wrong test.. so when deciding to stop or cut the dosage of anastrazole I’m still...
Sorry Nelson I just saw this now, I lost about 20 pounds, within the first 2 to 3 weeks of starting anastrozole .. Prior to that I had been eating a clean, calorie deficit diet, and I couldn’t lose a pound, I started to notice the water retention in my lower legs and feet. My doctor put me on...
Because of poor protocols to start with, I have never had the chance to run just test at the right dosage and see where my estradiol would be. I don’t know if you remember but they started me off at 200 MG per week with hCG and no AI
Thank you guys for the response, so I guess because of the wrong test order, I am still kind of blind, in your opinions should I run a new E2 test now and continue to take the .5 twice a week anastrozole, or should I just run my test injections with no AI for six weeks and then test my e2
I have gotten some really great advice from some of you guys on the board, my estradiol is now under control, at last labs my estridol was 16, down from 72. Also my FT and TT are within range. I do have low SHBG And it was recommended that I dropped my dose to 125 mg per week and have been...
*** update ***
I change my protocol six weeks ago and got my new bloodwork in today. I changed from 140 MG per week split into two doses, to 17 mg ed, as suggested due to my Low SHBG, and I started taking .50 MG of Arimidex to times per week, due to my high estradiol symptoms . My estradiol is...
Thank you.. I’m trying to research, trying to get as much info as I can on shbg, also trying to lower my e2, it’s been a mind fuck for me wether to use my ai or not, i just want this water weight, swelling in my lower legs and feet to go away

Here was my original thread
So this time I had to have my labs drawn through quest so the levels are a little bit different. Three weeks ago I changed my dosage from 200 MG per week, to 140 MG per week, injected EOD. My biggest symptom I am having his water retention in my lower legs .. I have also still been taking 500iu...
So I got some more labs done and this time they were done thru quest.. I dropped my t dose to 140 mg per week about 3 weeks ago as recommended by some of you guys, the ranges are different on quest so if you guys can help me with some input
So I have asked a few questions on here and appreciate the help, through talking to some of the members on here I have decided to drop my test injections from 200mg weekly to 120mg weekly, my estradiol was elevated and and was told lower my dose would help, but I am currently suffering from the...
Thanks.. So if my doctor is suggesting 200 per week, what is the point that I should start at if I’m going to tweak it myself, Will I feel effects from cutting back my dose that I have been taking . 50 eod which you suggest is the the max, or just pick something lower and see how I feel?
