Can HCG elevate my E2 level too much?

I have an 5000iu HCG here with me but i am afraid of using it and increasing my estradiol levels too much.

These are my levels at the moment:

ESTRADIOL Result: 31pg/mL
Males range: Inferior to 44 pg/mL

TOTAL TESTOSTERONE: Result: 1431,41 ng/dL
Range:: Males 18 to 66 years old: 175,00 to 781,00 ng/dL

FREE TESTOSTERONE: : 20,216ng/dL
Range, males: 17 to 40 years old: 3,400 to 24,600 ng/dL

Is there a range of how much my E2 level can increase with 700ui of HCG/week?
I have been told that if i divide the HCG shot by 100iu every day it will not convert as much into Estradiol. Is that truth?
 
HCG does not convert to E2. It stimulates your balls(Leydig cells) and if your balls start making more T then some of that might turn to E2.
Do you know what hi and low E2 feels like? IF so you can try the HCG and just keep track of how you are feeling. When my E2 gets high my nipples get sensitive and I can have small waves of emotions while watching TV.

Leydig cells, also known as interstitial cells of Leydig, are found adjacent to the seminiferous tubules in the testicle. They produce testosterone in the presence of luteinizing hormone (LH) and HCG mimics LH.

At the most adding 350-500iu HCG twice per week to TRT increases estradiol by no more than 10-20 %. I inject 500iu of HCG every 3 1/2 days.
 
Marmaromb are you primary or secondary?
If you are primary, basicly your balls are broke like mine, HCG will make no T or sperm so your E2 will not go up as a result of injecting HCG.

Primary
. This type of hypogonadism also known as primary testicular failure originates from a problem in the testicles. Secondary.
This type of hypogonadism indicates a problem in the hypothalamus or the pituitary gland parts of the brain that signal the testicles to produce testosterone.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
