Testosterone level 260 on TRT!

Alive

Member
16mg of propionate daily. I reduced HCG dose to 500 IU every other week to decrease my E2.

FT 6.8 in 8.7-25.1
DHT 32 in 30-85
DHEA-S 208.7 in 102.6-416.3
TSH 1.3 in .45-4.5
E2 10.5 in 8-35
SHBG 28.4 in 16.5-55.9


So I was successful in bringing my E2 down after all haha. Moral of the story, don't mess with the protocol without talking to doctor. I'll be talking to him next week. Not sure whether to increase HCG or propionate dose or even just go back to cypionate. Strangely my libido seems to be higher now compared to when I had higher T and E levels.
 
It boggles my mind how low my level was just 24 hours after injecting 16mg of prop. As a member demonstrated in another thread, your levels would be stable if you inject prop ED. Will be talking to my doctor soon.

Understanding Your Hormones

Estradiol (E2)

A form of estrogen produced from testosterone. Important for bone health, mood, and libido. Too high can cause side effects; too low can affect well-being.

DHT

Dihydrotestosterone is a potent androgen derived from testosterone. Affects hair growth, prostate health, and masculinization effects.

Free Testosterone

The biologically active form of testosterone not bound to proteins. Directly available for cellular uptake and biological effects.
