[QUOTE="MensHealth, post: 134342, member: 38056"] Sometimes you can see an increase in IGF1 when T levels are increased. So I really wouldn't be worried. If you want to look at pituitary function ask for a Prolactin to be ran. All men in our clinic have that ran to rule out a Prolactinoma. Rare but we have still found some. Optimal Estradiol is 20-30. The idea T:E ratio is between 40:1 - 50:1. Your ratio currently is only 20:1. What was your T:E ratio when you started therapy? Most men in our clinic are coming in between a 10:1 - 20:1 ratio. We are always trying to improve that ratio. At the end of the day though all that matters are your symptoms though. Just don't bottom out your Estradiol. [/QUOTE]
