[QUOTE="VitalityD, post: 199629, member: 42547"] Hello all, I apologize if this the right place for this post. I’ve been lurking around the site for a few weeks now looking for answers and decided to ask for some guidance from some of the more experienced users here. Long story short, been on TRT since Nov. 2020 through my urologist. Started on 100MG a week split into 2 I.M. shots every 3.5 days. After few months on that protocol ran bloods and the results were as follows: 04/16/2021 Test Total: 1041 Test Free: 281.7 Estradiol: 54 CBC was normal hematocrit in range. Felt like I was getting some estro sides so changed to 100Mg a week split EOD I.M. Instead to try and lower T to E aromatization. Ran that for a while and continued feeling bad. Brain fog, bad memory, headaches, bad sleep, libido issues, very tired irritable and a kind of wired but tired feeling where I’m tired but have too much energy to sleep. Began taking Pregnenolone micronized 50MG and DHEA micronized 10MG. Had added that for about 2 weeks before bloods. These are the latest results: Test Total: 1006 Test Free: 207.3 Estradiol: 46 Dhea-S: 499 ( above range) SHBG: 20 Dropping DHEA after this as it looks like I’m overdoing it but continuing Preg unless someone advises against that. Also waiting on HCG to arrive to see if that would help as I’ve read that can be helpful to some. Where do I go from here? Is my estradiol still too high? Should I drop my dosage? Currently EOD Sub Q would ED be better for me? Im also thinking of running a full panel for thyroid and a 4 point saliva test for cortisol as I read these can be issues as well. If anybody can shed some light on my situation I would greatly appreciate it. Feel like I’m going at this alone right now since my urologist is no help at all past prescribing the actual medication. Thanks for your time everyone. [/QUOTE]
