I had this whole debacle with arimidex monoteraphy while ago which I believe started a cascade of all kinds of issues with me. I had full head of thick hair before that experiment but during and/or after that I started experiencing thinning at the front and slight recession but my hairline has...

I think my hot flashes are getting worse along with the chest itching. Feeling pretty shitty overall, a big lack of energy. Doctor has yet to contact me back I talked with little under 2 months ago, I am thinking of booking another endo appointment. This is so weird, like I have high and low...

My DHT is at the very bottom of the reference range, like just 1-2 points above the lower limit, although my total testosterone is around 600 ng/dl... Is this an issue? My E2 isn't over the range but its upper level of ref range and I got itchy chest area and perhaps a mild gyno. I've read DHT...

Well the itching all over my body, hair loss, especially the excessive sweating almost 24/7 is definitely real which ALL started after the intake of anastrozole and happened before I ever read anything about bad side effects of AIs. I just thought I'd try few months trial to see how I would feel...

I was doing arimidex monoteraphy to boost my testosterone levels which looking back now was really stupid idea but it has been done and it's even used in pubertal boys to delay the fusion of growth plates. Right now off everything, my testosterone is normal. Latest numbers from October...

I supposedly crashed my E2, never took labs initially during that time though. I used arimidex monoteraphy for about 3-4 months with varying dosages of like 0.25-0.5mg ed or eod. I quit cold turkey. I never had E2 issues before and what I can remember my baseline E2 before this was quite low...

Reporting back in. Visited a doctor. Explained to him how anastrozole use caused these symptoms and even though E2 theoretically is in the normal range, I am experiencing what I guess are low E2 symptoms (hot flashes, fatigue etc.) so theoreticized it being some kind of receptor issue. Only...

I have symptoms for both after messing up with arimidex. More low e2 than high but labs are normal which is the most frustrating part.

Well I got hairloss from arimidex. Not sure about tamoxifen although I used it too.

Well I got quite a few symptoms from messing with anastrozole but I think low DHT could atleast cause libido issues. The thing is my T is normal, what would cause reduced conversion to DHT?

I took them twice in two different labs that had different ranges but: DHT: 1.1 nmol/l (1-10) DHT: 1.0 nmol/l (1.03-2.92)

Welp, just got my E1 (estrone) results back. They were in the normal range I guess right dab in the middle, so there's that. Still suffering from hot flashes, itchy skin, fatigue all the usual good stuff.. Went to an endocrinologist, she didn't say my symptoms couldn't have been due to...

I too got itching in my body (mostly stomach and breast area) after most likely crashing my E2 with arimidex for awhile.. Might need to run more estrogen test to see E1 etc.. this is so frustrating.

Yeah. Unfourtunately I went and took letro in small doses that was prescribed for me for few weeks during the summer when I thought part of my issue was still too high E2. I think that set me back big time.. Have you checked your cortisol? Mine is normal thankfully. I guess estrogen plays a big...

Hello. Took some blood last week, been off everything of any dosage(serm, AI etc. for over a month) Bad symptoms persist. I feel EXTREMELY fatigued 24/7, my scalp is itching and I'm sweating a lot. Also get out of breath really easily now, I can barely walk, feel very weak. Stress test, ecg...

What is also interesting that there is studies with arimidex/letro used on pubertal boys for short height along with GH. They used doses like 1mg arimidex per day or letro 2.5mg day and they dont report adverse effects that would come with e2 crash etc.

I seem to too have some circulation issues after this E2 disaster.

Thanks for the info, damn sounds like yours was a pretty close call. Only thing that is reassuring was that I did not experience any ST segment changes during the test, just few skipped beats during recovery. Felt pretty dizzy for awhile after it though.

Yeah, definitely experience high levels of anxiety too. I had my e2 most likely crashed and feel like I experienced some type of rebound that made my e2 permanently higher. Just have been feeling this weird ache/pressure in my left shoulder and now lately some pain around my chest area. Trying...

Has anyone experienced shortness of breath (or rather inability to take deep breaths at times), dizziness and chest pain while E2 either too low or too high? I have had echocardiogram, stress test and ECG, all have come clean (except for few skipped beats during recovery phase in stress test...
