[QUOTE="saberx, post: 106455, member: 13264"] Hello everyone, I have been on TRT for a number of years now and after speaking to a multiple endocrinologists and an anti-aging doctor, I have not been able to get a definitive answer on a hormone program that works. I understand that all bodies are different and require different dosages and I know that there is no single "cycle" for everyone, but is there no basic guideline? I'm 43 years old, 6'1" tall and weight about 220lbs. I workout 3 times a week and eat as clean as possible.:) My current cycle is: Delatestryl Testosterone - 100mg/week (50mg 2x/week - Monday and Thursday) Omnitrope HGH - 2iu (mon, tues, thurs, fri, sat) Injected in the morning on empty stomach HCG - 250iu 2x/week (Tuesday and Friday) DHEA 25mg daily Arimidex .25mg 2x/week (recently increased from once a week) As you can see i'm not doing anything crazy, but for some reason my Estradiol number is very high. Estradiol 155 pmol/L on a scale of 0 to <157. All other numbers are well within range. So, the only changes that I have made to the cycle recently is that I have raised my HGH from 1iu to 2iu. This change was made about 3 month ago, but has resulted in some severely tender swollen nipples. In the last 2 weeks I have increased my arimidex to .25mg twice a week from once a week to try and combat this problem. Prior to increasing my HGH, my Estradiol was always between 40 and 50 pmol/L. What I can't understand is how its possible to have such a drastic side effect from just increasing HGH by 1iu? So, my questions are: 1. Does anyone have any experience with a test/hgh combo cycle and do my dosages look normal? 2. Is there any obvious error that i'm making and should I be taking or not taking any one thing? Again, I have only increased my Arimidex a few weeks ago so I know that it will take some time to work, but I have always had a hard time understanding why I would need to take something to keep something else in range and why not just reduce what causing the problem. In the past I have had a very hard time using Arimidex and shutting down sex drive, etc. so I usually try to steer clear of it or use very minimal dosage. As a past heavy cycle user (more than 7 years ago) I can't remember having such swollen nipples, even with 1000mg of test weekly. Now, it seems more difficult just to keep my body balanced. The main reason why I increased my HGH dosage is because I felt like after almost 2 years of using only 1iu I wasn't getting anything out of it, except spending a lot of money. Since increasing to 2iu of HGH my strength has gone up, even though every doctor has told me that 2iu of HGH will give you no strength gains only cosmetic benefits over time. Anyway sorry for the rambling and I greatly appreciate any help that you may give me on my journey to find balance, strength and harmony. Thank you, Sab [/QUOTE]
