[QUOTE="jwpinva, post: 181226, member: 40086"] Hey guys, first time posting here, but I've been a lurker for quite some time. 48 yo 5'10" 195# Daily weight and resistance training Here's my protocol: 160mg TestCyp, injected twice weekly 0.4mg per dose. 1000 IU's of HCG , injected twice weekly at 500IU's per dose. Kids aren't really the goal at my age; it's more about the aesthetics. No AI at time time. After 10 weeks on this protocol, my labs came back thus: Total T = 971 ng/dL Free T = 34.18 ng/dL E2 (sensitive) = 69.8 pg/dL (!!!!) I'm not having any gyno or moodiness, but libido is just meh, and erection quality and orgasm quality are iffy at best. Obviously, I suspect the high E2 number is the culprit because the ratio is clearly WAY off... My doc crashed my E2 on my initial dose of AI (which was 1mg, twice a week), and I'll never forget how miserable that was, so I'm avoiding AI's like the plague. But now it seems the pendulum has swung the other direction. I really want to get dialed without an AI, having the benefits of optimized T, without the high E2 symptoms. So, I'm open to suggestions. I've considered dialing back one or both the T or the HCG, but I'd like input from peers with a broad level of experience. Screen shot of labs attached for reference. Thanks in advance for any input.
