[QUOTE="IronKnight, post: 103052, member: 17473"] I agree with others here: A level of 16 seems too low for E2 and you are not feeling right, so you need to find your sweet spot for E2 which probably will be above 20. There are reports of some people needing E2 to be around 30-35 to avoid joint issues, everybody is different so I suggest you experiment to find your own level. As your E2 is too low you might want to consider: 1) Dropping your AI 2) Adding HCG 3) Adding DHEA Another thing is the Ferritin although it is not very low now, 69 is not optimal. If I were you I would: 1) Donate blood (to increase your margin of safety) 2) Supplement Iron heavily for 1-2 weeks (or whatever it takes) until Ferritin is above 100, then stop supplementing to avoid fueling another HCT increase Background for that 2nd recommendation: Dr. John Crisler: "I want to see Ferritin at 100-150" - [URL]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ynHXydSGRR0&feature=youtu.be&t=618[/URL] [/QUOTE]
