It's more common to get ED from low E2 or high E2?

I have read that high E2 levels can have an negative impact on libido. Alright, but does that means that ED will also be a consequence of having high E2 levels.... even for a person that haves high Testosterone levels?
Because from what i have researched, it's said that having a low E2 level, even if with high Testosterone levels, can be worse for libido and can result in ED that will be more difficult to deal with.

My question is... if a person is on TRT and have a high Testosterone level, what would be worse for libido? Having a higher E2 level or a lower E2 level?

Yes there's many more issues with low estrogen levels then high levels. So many trt doctors subscribe an AI without proper labs.

For me low is way WAY worse. Not just ED but all things mental as well. Train wreck city for me.

Excuse me if I'm wrong...but you seem to be using "libido" and "ED" as interchangeable terms. They have two different meanings.

Do your questions focus on libido? That means your awareness of someone as a sex partner (real, potential, or fantasy). A sense of feeling sexual, being aroused.

Or do they focus on ED, erectile dysfunction?

For me, high E2 has been way worse for libido and ED.

I would prefer to be on the high side, I've heard others explain when they've tanked or otherwise been, <20, that there's no amount of Viagra going to work. If that's true. But I like my friend CW's comment about needing to parse out exactly what you're talking about here. I term it like this have you lost all interest in sex and are apathetic to it, or are you interested but experience ED? Two different situations.
