[QUOTE="cleverusername, post: 91939, member: 16141"] I am wondering the same thing, I was given free rein on my AI as I was very leary of it from the start of TRT with Defy. But now I am leary of changing things when I am so close to being 100%. No sir I have not. I am also pondering that if I were to get my trough down, would I even need AI any more. Ive lost close to 15 pounds since starting my journey. Perhaps I dont aromatase as much now? I'm 100% sure it isnt high E2, I stayed at 38-45 E2 for a long time before I finally dropped it down. I was so confused, my high E2 symptoms I swore were Low E symptoms and stopped my AI completely. Defy had me do bloods at 2 weeks out from my last AI dose, E2 come back at 50. The nurse calls me up, says get back on your AI, in fact add a third AI too that! 3 months later my E was at 35, TT was lower @ 840 but FT was still above range. My dose was increased, and my E followed. In August is when I was put onto the Mon-Wed-Fri, but I only did this for a little less than 2 weeks. Reason is I got bad anxiety, instead of riding out the change in hormones I got scared and went back to old protocol. After reading more about everyone doing good at either EOD or Daily I switched and stuck it out. I am happy I did, within 2 weeks I had adjusted and began to feel better than ever, I kept AI @ three times a week and within 5 weeks I was Low E. This is nothing like the feeling of High E, I can manage High E but Low E is nasty! My whole body has this feeling of a cold ache, kind of bone chilling. It is hard to describe, but its nothing like High E. Anyway, I think I need a T dose reduction or a smaller AI at more frequent intervals. Almost think if I were to get my TT and FT down, I could eliminate the AI completely. In short I need to get off my butt and get scheduled for my consult. Reading the responses and things I have wrote has helped me make my decision. I am going with full consult with either Dr Saya or Melissa.
