For those who don’t know my history, I have a consistent lowish estrogen problem because I can’t raise my testosterone dose high enough to aromatize enough e2, due to erythrocytosis. Using 60mg twice per week right now and that has my Hemoglobin at 17 and hematocrit at 50.9 so far. Going to retest in a few weeks to ensure it doesn’t climb any higher. This has my e2 sensitive at 17, and I still get low e2 symptoms at this level.
When I was running ecdysterone for 8 weeks, my sensitive e2 climbed to 37 and I felt great. This isn’t the thread for “ecdy doesn’t work! It was something else!”. For this threads sake, humor me that it was the cause. When I dropped it, symptoms have resumed. I’ve tried DHEA and it didn’t cut it. It gives me a whole different set of side effects.
My question is, is there anything wrong with never coming off, say, 400mg of cyclodextrin enclosed ecdysterone? My lab work looked great, other than my LDL being 120, but VLDL and triglycerides were great. CBC and chem/liver/electrolytes were great. Other interesting note, in the doctor office a few days ago, my BP was 138/82. This is 2 weeks off ecdy. While on ecdy, it was 117/72.
Anyone have any thoughts?
