[QUOTE="Jerajera, post: 222639, member: 40995"] Thanks for the in depth response, I really appreciate it. The hot flashes are typically a symptom of low Estrogen, it could be from too much DHT. DHT is an Estrogen antagonist at the receptor level ([URL="http://haidut.me/?p=1317"]DHT is an estrogen (receptor) antagonist – To Extract Knowledge from Matter[/URL]) so it's not going to lower your Estrogen levels on a blood test but will still act as an AI. The cream applied to the scrotum disproportionately increases DHT levels because of the high concentration of 5-alpha reductase enzymes (responsible for converting T to DHT) situated there; it's not uncommon for men on the scrotal cream to have DHT levels 3-4 times over the top of the range. If on top of that you add pure DHT your DHT levels might be so high that even though your E2 looks pretty high on paper, most of it is antagonized by the DHT at the receptor level, leaving you with some symptoms of low E2. I'm about to give the scrotal cream a try myself, but if you have access to actual DHT cream it might make sense to get on injections for normal DHT conversion, and use more or less DHT cream to fine tune your protocol if you've never tried something like that. I know from the "Lifting Dermatologist" guy on youtube that it's really hard to get DHT tested in Belgium but it might be worth it in your case to see what's going on there [/QUOTE]
