High BP, HCT Now Insomnia

[ipi]

Gentlemen

I have some sensitivity in the breast area, high BP form before and on Sunday I played soccer. Had the energy but when I came back had a protein drink then couldnt sleep properly at night, hardly 3 hours. This morning pains but I don't feel tired to sleep. I lowered my dose from 80 mg twice a week to 60 a couple of weeks ago and still on 350 iu HCG.

I take my HCG and test cyp IM but I read on defy that subq will help lower e2. I have been prescribed AI but don't want to take till I could becuae of clotting concerns. Does high estrogen cause all that? What else could I do?

It may be caused by e2, but here's a good post on insomnia https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?3863-Can-HcG-cause-insomnia

Vince does HCG increase E2 as well or is it just the test cyp?

HCG can induce aromatase synthesis so this is something you should know.

It also increases endogenous testosterone in the Secondary man so you could have elevated your total testosterone serum levels even more with the addition of HCG as well.

Estrogen via the testes via HCG is not a product of the aromatase enzyme and thus unaffected by the typical AI like Arimidex/Anastrozole.

I'm past being mildly surprised that you're with, you say you're with, Defy, yet you don't go to them with these extensive problems you have, problems you have time after time after time, day after day after day, I just don't get it because you seem to need a higher level of intervention that guys on the internet could ever provide you.

VincenCarter, These are not extensive problems. The more I read about it and learn it from people on this forum the more I find out that these are common issues that people are facing. Insomnia, BP, high HCT. All issues that I have are very common side effects. Btw I talk to my doctor every month but if I expereince something after my appointment i try to find out here. Does it make sense?

Do you have any current labs that could be discussed?
