[QUOTE="bluezebra5, post: 29261, member: 2803"] Hey guys, I posted way back about switching from HCG monotherapy to testosterone/HCG. Having been on some sort of HRT for almost 2 years, I'm beginning to develop a stronger intuition for when things "aren't right", and I'm beginning to suspect anastrazole may be the culprit behind malaise I've been experiencing for quite a while. I've brought this up with 2 HRT docs, as well as an endo and 2 GPs, all of whom turn to the standard E2 lab and note that it is high-normal (even on 2 mg of arimidex per week). Out of curiousity, I ordered a Total/free T and sensitive E2 panel through DL. I purposefully tested the day after T injection and administration of 1mg adex, as we usually test trough levels (2x/week injections). The panel came back: TT > 1500 FT 37 E2 15 (8-35) WOW. Was not expecting such a spike on 2x per week given that my troughs have been ~800-900. And clearly the T:E2 ratio is blown. What would my best course of action be? Should I begin by cutting the adex into quarters (I currently take one 1mg tab after each injection)? That would put me at 7/8 of my current dose and possibly smooth things out. Given the half life of anastrazole, I'm tempted to just cut it to 1 or 1.5 mg per week and retest in 6-8 weeks. Thanks as always friends. [/QUOTE]
