[QUOTE="pistolero, post: 94817, member: 17334"] Hello, brothers! I found this site just a few weeks ago and I decided to jump in with both feet and contacted Defy. Completed the initial phys/blood work consult and got accepted as a patient. Basic backstory is in my first post in the "Introductions" forum: [url]https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?13049-Wassuuup-%21%21%21[/url] So I finally got my prescription last Friday as follows 70 mg test cyp twice a week 500iu HCG twice a week .25mg Anastrozole twice a week Dr. also recommended 25mg a day of DHEA, and vitamin D3. One of my first questions is about the Anastrozole. Given the dislike for AI in general here in these forums, unless and until negative estrogen effects occur, would you start off with that dose right off the bat? Is there something about my e2, SHGB levels, or anything that would indicate I should start with an AI? Estradiol @ 26.1 a little high to start with and just a precaution? The Dr. was very informative and willing to answer questions, it was just a lot to take in at the time and now I've read a lot more here about AIs and most advice here leans toward avoidance if possible. Original lab results = Testosterone,Free and Total Testosterone, Serum 343 ng/dL 264 - 916 Free Testosterone(Direct) 11.8 pg/mL 6.8 - 21.5 Luteinizing Hormone(LH), S LH 5.0 mIU/mL 1.7 - 8.6 Prostate-Specific Ag, Serum Prostate Specific Ag, Serum 0.5 ng/mL 0.0 - 4.0 01 Estradiol, Sensitive 26.1 pg/mL 8.0 - 35.0 Sex Horm Binding Glob, Serum 31.2 nmol/L 16.5 - 55.9 Thanks so much for having this forum full of so much good info!
