[QUOTE="Maximos, post: 99006, member: 17785"] Hello everyone! I've been reading this forum for about 3 years, since I got on TRT. Short version of my story: I've been an athlete most of my life and I was competing on a semi-professional level since I was 23. I used steroids and pushed myself in training multiple times but I was always careful not to overdo it. At the age of 26 (I'm 32 now) I had bloodwork done and my TT was 600. The year after I was working 18 hours a day and I wasn't eating well plus I had a ton of stress and that led to a really (really) bad case of tonsillitis. After that, even if though I fixed my diet, sleep and work schedule my TT was 350-400 everytime I checked for almost 2 years so I decided to start doing TRT. I live abroad and doctors in my country are pretty much clueless. I had to explain to my doctor all about the dosages and how arimidex works e.tc. Actually, most of the time I was just printing posts and articles from excele male and allthingsmale and showing them to him. My protocol is 120 mg p/w split into divided doses. I don't use HCG and lately I started supplementing with DHEAS and Pregnenolone. That combo actually gave me great energy and mental focus but I was also low on DHEA and progesterone. My problem, like many other guys around here is estrogen. First of all, there is no sensitive test in my country. On the non sensitive test I've scored from 40-71 (ref. 20-71). I've crashed my E2 5 times in the last 2 years while trying to find a proper AI dose. I've taken 0.5mg at the times of injections and crashed. I've taken 0.25mg 3 times per week and crashed. I started taking 0.25mg at the time of injections and I was feeling ok for about 3 weeks and then I crashed again. I actually crashed like 4 hours after I took the 0.25 dose! I want to follow a different route and control my estrogen with supplements or dosage manipulation. I also take: Vit D Vit b6 Vit B5 Vitc C I am planning on waiting for my estrogen to stabillize and then act accordingly. I skipped my last arimidex dose and my nipples are kinda burning retain water but that always happens when my hormones flunctuate. I never had any gyno or sensitivity. Now the question is, how long should I wait before my next bloodwork and what steps should I take if my E2 is high? I've already bought some DIM and calcium D but I won't use anything before my bloodwork. Also thank you all guys, this community has helped me more than any doctor [/QUOTE]
