Low Estrogen

When you do daily injections you don't have any peaks or valley, it really makes a difference in your testosterone levels. I was injecting 180 mg a week and when I went to daily I'm only injecting 112 mg. When I tried injecting 20 mg daily my levels were crazy high.

I'll try 70 mg 2 X a week starting next week. With the hcg on same days @ 500

Are you changing from 60mg a week NO HCG to 140mg + 1000IU HCG a week? If yes that is too big of a dosage increase in my opinion. You might go from low estradiol to high estradiol, high hematocrit etc. Your FT is not bad. If I were you I would only add HCG and restest estradiol in a few weeks
 
Generally speaking if you increase your testosterone dose you will increase your levels of DHT.

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.
