E2 Ratio

I was wanting to see if anyone could tell me with E2 of 33 with the sensitive test and T at 130 and 202 on two test if the ratio would be off so bad as to cause bad high E2 symptoms? Thanks for any help
 
What is the range for the test levels? If standard range then I would think you would feel like crap from that alone. However I recall a post on here where Nelson said the ratio of the two should be 14 or greater. Your ratio is 4-6. That is low and would suggest high estrogen dominance. I wouldn't suggest trying to improve that ratio by dropping estrogen levels rather do it by increasing test. I think you will find that others will also suggest many more labs be done to figure out the root cause.
 
The range for E<or= 29, Test range 130.5 280-800 ng/dl , 202 250-1100 ng/dl and yes I feel like death warmed over. I have had a lot of test done already, went three times and it is just crazy how hard it is to get in and then to get them to do all the tests you need. The bottom line is I wanted to know with my T this low and even though my E is not super high if it would cause bad high E symptoms (which I have) or if it was probably just from the low T. I read that article also about the ratio that Nelson wrote. Thanks for the reply

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.
