[QUOTE="slicktop, post: 168837, member: 39800"] I'd kinda do something in between. If it were me, I'd drop to 140mg a week of test and drop the AI completely until the flag is flying at full mast again. Three 1mg tabs of anastrozole is a HUGE amount, and your symptoms and test results indicate that's way too much for you! Anecdotally, when I was just starting TRT and over responding and had high E2 symptoms, I was taking a total of 1.5 MG and that brought me down from an E2 of over 90 to the mid 20's, and my SHBG was almost identical to yours. Your initial, pre-TRT numbers weren't bad at all for 50. It's actually hard to believe you were started on 200mg a week at those levels. There's kind of a split here on EM- those that find E2:SHBG to be the ratio that best reflects their ideal TRT "sweet spot", and those that look at testosterone to estradiol. You might be in the latter looking at your pre-TRT numbers, whereas I'm solidly in the former. Lastly, and not to use chick language but, empower yourself to be the master of your health. A doctor isn't a god- you do NOT have to do everything he says. If you want to lower your weekly dosage, that is YOUR RIGHT to do so, especially in the presence of negative side effects! [/QUOTE]
