[QUOTE="brokendownbro, post: 12317, member: 1926"] Thanks guys. This is the letter I sent to my TRT doc. "As I stated before, I believe that my physician ordered the wrong estradiol test for my bloodwork. Many clinics are using the wrong estradiol test that may be over-estimating the levels of this hormone in men. An [URL="https://www.excelmale.com/forum/threads/1178-Why-All-Men-Should-be-Tested-with-the-Ultrasensitive-Estradiol-Test"][U][COLOR=#0072c6]ultrasensitive estradiol test [/COLOR][/U][/URL]more accurately measures estradiol in men instead of the regular test that costs less. What a man wants is a sensitive estradiol test by LCMS technology. The standard test measured me at a level of 93.7. An independent second opinion told me that my estradiol via ultrasensitive is likely less than 50 pg/mL. It depends on how much inflammation I have as measured by C Reactive Protein (CRP). If you need more information concerning this topic, I am attaching a research study which compares the two methodologies when used in men. I am steadfast and determined to not lower my TRT dosage.

I do believe that this is the appropriate time to add in Anastrozole; because even if my estradiol is at 50, that is still probably a tad too high. However, the benefits I have experienced at a higher TRT dosage are not to be taken likely. I have already voiced my concern to XXXXX XXXXXX with BMG corporate. Let's try to be a little more open minded in my treatment protocol. We can take small steps. " [/QUOTE]
