[QUOTE="Vince Carter, post: 148703, member: 2657"] I admire that you're pushing the envelope here. When I tried it I got to 10mg/D and just didn't feel good, Estrogen was still high. I think there's several problems here, the wrong Estrogen testing, you can't (should not) use that test as a part of your plot to make adjustments. Cortisol is a very poor blood serum test, better tested and more accurate is 4 tube saliva. At some point you have a diminishing return whereas you reduce the T to what amounts to a level that is below therapeutic value. At some point you might get the E knocked down but then you're bridging a low T state so you'll have some trade off and suffer libido and erectile function because of low Test. If an AI is necessary then you should take a run with that. UltraSensitive LC/MS/MS is the proper E2 testing. Too, if it's affordable for you I like to recommend for low SHBG guys (like me) to include a second test, "Estradiol, Free" to get another picture of where your estrogen is. [/QUOTE]
