[QUOTE="jobshopper, post: 246913, member: 41989"] Systemlord, Thank you for your reply. Therein lies the rub as they say and the source of my confusion. I looked at the lab numbers posted by a well known and well respected member of this forum; Vince. Here are the lab numbers he posted in April 9, 2022: ### My protocol, same as last labs. 16 mg of testosterone cypionate daily, 500 iu of hcg twice weekly and no AI. Pregnenolone 10 mg and 25 mg of DHEA. My last injection before labs, about 28 hr.s. Testosterone, Total, LC/MS, 1035.9 High ng/dL 264.0-916.0 Testosterone, Free 33.77 High ng/dL 5.00-21.00 % Free Testosterone 3.26% 1.50-4.20 DHEA-Sulfate01 499.0 High ug/dL 30.9-295.6 age adjust Dihydrotestosterone 56 ng/dL Estradiol, Sensitive 18.7 pg/mL 8.0-35.0 Sex Horm Binding Glob, Serum. 41.2 nmol/L 19.3-76.4 Hemoglobin. 16.7 g/dL 13.0-17.7 Hematocrit 47.7 37.5-51.0) ### I'm sure you will notice that he has an E2 of 18.7. That makes his T/E2 ratio 55.4 His Test C is 16mg D (112mg/wk) and he uses 500iu of HCG 2x/wk. So my question is: which one is kingmaker? Is it having an E2 <29 (Quest Ultra-Sensitive Estradiol range) or having a T/E2 ratio between 14 and 20? I have seen other examples on this forum where E2 numbers were in range but the target T/E2 ratio was out of range. I dropped my Test C to 60mg E3.5D a few weeks ago. I have no problems dropping it further to bring my E2 down and/or adding an AI and/or Hcg if it will help to restore my libido, sexual functions and help to restore my testicular function. Currently my testicles are about the size of a grape. I am hoping that there are others here who have been in this situation before and can guide me through it. Thanks [/QUOTE]
