[QUOTE="CSI007, post: 94450, member: 13062"] Thanks for the additional info Nelson, I have read that metforim can lower serum testosterone but no that it can raise. So maybe its acting as an aromatase inhibitor (unless I am reading this wrong?) which lowered my E2 all the while raising my T. I have been reading that it seems to also lower hematicrit in some people on TRT. The interesting thing is. The past 3 days I feel like my levels of T and E2 have crashed. I am sweating, joint and muscle aches, I feeel weak. I have felt all of these things before (when I started the T cream and my levels crashed), but with the flu going around among other things I am hesitant to point the finger at TRT failure (because of metformin?) Not pressing the panic button yet since I also have had some pretty bad nausea and diarrhea. If I don't get full blown illness in the next day or two but continue to feel this way I will REALLY be interested to see my blood work when it comes in. I guess I will be a good case study for metformin and TRT! [/QUOTE]
