So I recently upped my dosage, about 2 -2.5 weeks ago. I've posted before, but was on this protocol for 2 months, plan was to take everything back to a starting point and slowly work our way up with dose increase like I should have done in the beginning. I felt shitty on the 50mg. Not as bad as before TRT, but just meh overall.
Old protocol
50mg test cyp e3.5
120iu hcg e3.5
Arimidex .25 24 hr after pin
Labs
Total t- 419
Free t 51(35-155)
Sensitive e2- 12 (8-35)
New protocol
66mg test cyp e3.5 days
120iu hcg e3.5 days
Arimidex .25 24hr after pin
Like I said it hasn't been long enough to get bloodwork done. I've just noticed some serious fatigue lately 4-5 hrs after my injection. Like struggling to stay awake, heavy eye lids, overall shitty feeling. Other than that my mood is actually better, and libido is starting to slowly pick up as well. I know I have to wait at least 4 weeks to look at test levels, but am I able to look at estrogen any earlier to make sure it isn't too low or too high? If not that's fine, just wanted to ask. I've got some time off coming up so there is no rush, and I purposefully only took one class over summer so I can deal with sides. I sleep 7-10 hrs a night, train 5-6 days a week, eat extremely clean(lean protein, good amount of carbs like sweet pot and rice, plenty of veggies, and healthy fats as well). Just looking for some suggestions.
Also I do know not many people need an AI with that low of a dose. Anecdotally I have dealt with high e2 sides since starting treatment hence the AI.
