[QUOTE="Riptide, post: 126868, member: 30767"] Hey thanks guys, [USER=18511]@fifty[/USER] that's a great point! I need to remember that while there's lots of help to be had--trt forums are a bit like yelp where you get a higher concentration of people who are unhappy or still ironing out their protocol. It's funny because on here (and other TRT forums) I'd say its 50/50 or 60/40 in favor of no AI, but my dr. at Defy told me that over 10,000 patients maybe 2-3% get crashed from a very low dose AI like mine, and maybe 2-3 % are underresponders and need more on that dose--but about 95% of his patients responded favorable to a low AI according to him (at least people who "said" they responded well--of course a few probably say that and don't take them, but I doubt that's a huge population). Anyhow, your idea of the data being skewed here towards side effect issues is really important! So okay, say I'm going to take the low dose--should I wait 4 weeks or a few weeks for my E2 levels to rise a bit, or should it rise right as soon as my first shot? I'm willing to believe that a .125mg 2/week dose won't crash me on the peak of my 1200-1500 ng/dl TT levels, but with an E2 at 14 right now should I wait at least for a few shots to build up so my E2 has a chance to rise before my first Adex dose? I think the dr wanted me to start adex day 1 on shot one. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
