[QUOTE="Appassionato, post: 147541, member: 37892"] What are your free T, free E2 and SHBG levels? Also, I thought the whole purpose of TRT is to get close as possible to a healthy young man hormonal profile. I've been around natural testosterone optimization forums in the past and there were men that managed to get their total T exceeding 1100 ng/dL with an E2 that was never exceeding 35 pg/mL. So why someone on TRT and a total T of about 1000 should have an E2 of 90+ pg/mL? Furthermore, aren't these doctors basing their claims about high E2 being beneficial on the very same papers done on people not on HRT or even on women? The "not being symptomatic thing" is surely somethign to take in account, but I think many people are scared of long term effect on health, as no one is wishing to die from one day to another for a stroke. There are body builders on steroids with a total T of 3000 ng/dL and an E2 of 100+ claiming to feel great, or even an endocrinologist (or at least this is what he claims to be) on T nation forum with a total T of 6000+ ng/dL and an E2 of 40 pg/mL, saying he doesn't have any symptoms. Alright, but what do we know on the long term effect of such high hormones levels? What are the effects on aging organs? Just to be clear, my tone is not polemic, I'm just trying to understand, because we are all on the same boat after all and the common goal should be restoring people healths as much as possible.
