How bad is this T:E ratio?

So I inject 100mg weekly and I’m about to split my dose but until then I got my bloods back and e2 was high. I’m curious about how off this ratio is though? 2 days after injection T is 1066. 4 days post injection T is 865 and E2 ultrasensitive is 59pg/ml. I’m waiting on trough results.
 
To answer your question, the T/E2 ratio is a little on the low side. Flipping it around to an E2/T ratio, it is almost 0.7%. Normal is more like 0.3-0.6%.
 
Your estradiol is fine.

Yeah I’m not too concerned about the number but rather the ratio since I have pubertal gyno and I’m getting other effects I’d rather even it out. Thanks Nelson I found out from discounted labs since my doc doesn’t check shit I always end up having to take care of myself. I think I’m gonna try lowering the dose a tad by like 10mg and if that doesn’t work I’ll split it
 
Your ratio is over 14, which is good.
Remember that there are other factors involved in gynecomastia beyond estradiol.

I am glad DiscountedLabs.com has been able to improve your access to monitoring.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
