[QUOTE="eyeheartny, post: 167075, member: 18882"] I am definitely worried about cardiovascular issues, as well as a supposition on my side that my libido and erection quality do better when my E2 runs a little higher. On test cypionate I never really had runaway E2 levels like some guys get, so I actually suspect that my water retention issues may have nothing to do with estradiol at all. Regardless of what I settle on for the androgen portion of my TRT (test alone or nandrolone + test) I will probably talk to Defy about a trial of eplerenone to see how a potassium-sparing diuretic affects me. If it helps I may go back to test only and a diuretic as my libido and erection quality are fantastic on around 140mg/week of test cyp. It's the water retention that is a problem. I notice it in my face, abdomen, etc. Occasionally I've gotten a bit of edema around my ankles or noticed my wrists swelling a bit but that's been coincident with eating more salt, drinking alcohol, etc. If I can have the libido/energy of a higher dose of testosterone and drop the excess water I'd be absolutely thrilled. I've tried both exemestane and anastrazole. If anything, the exemestane made me more bloated, especially in and around my face. I've tried anastrozole at everything from 0.1mg EOD to higher doses, and while I did notice myself peeing out more water, I tend to get migraines and didn't notice any improvement in other domains.
