[QUOTE="brokendownbro, post: 12253, member: 1926"] REPOSTED HERE FROM EXCEL MALE FACEBOOK PAGE Would you consider this a sound practice? I know that it is bad for estradiol to be high? There is no question about that. However, if a patient feels good on a dose of testosterone (160mg) and they aren't on any aromatase inhibitors, wouldn't you try prescribing the aromatase inhibitors before drastically cutting the dosage back down to 100mg?
