[QUOTE="Cataceous, post: 239519, member: 38109"] With twice-weekly injections, peak testosterone can be 40-50% higher than trough values. I agree with @sammy: 80 mg per week would be more reasonable—2 x 40 mg. Your estradiol is about 0.9% of testosterone. This is quite high, considering it's typically 0.3-0.6%. Apparently you have plenty of aromatase—or else inflammation that's falsely inflating an immunoassay-based measurement. Even if the elevated estradiol isn't—yet—causing problems, it may be helping to push up your prolactin. Some men experience problems sooner or later at these levels. It's a minor nuisance, but if you're stuck with 300 mg/mL TE then you might consider diluting it for better precision. This would involve transferring some to a new sterile vial along with some carrier oil and benzyl alcohol. [/QUOTE]
