I started my TRT a few months ago after having some ED and low testostrone numbers. I had very low sex drive or really felt really well at age 39. The doctor after a few weeks prescribed Viagra and that worked fantastic. After a few more weeks I wanted to try something more normal for sex life so we tried 5mg Cialis. This worked very well for 2 weeks. 1st round of blood came back with..
Testostrone around 750 (was 260)
E2 non sensative at 48
Total Estrogen at 188.
The doctor put me on 1mg Arimidex 5 days a week. And then the nightmare begins... the 1st 3 days I felt good I fact sexually I was able to have multiple sex episodes with my girlfriend on 2 of those days. By Friday I could tell my erection quality was getting poor and by Saturday very difficult to get an erection. On Sunday I felt so terriable I spent the whole day in bed to just try to sleep off the crash.
Called the doctor. They told me no way I could of crashed my estrogen that fast. Told me to take 5 days off the AI and go back on it 1 mg 2x a week. Well the whole week no moring wood at all anymore (before this moring wood was always there and getting better with Cialis). No ability to get an erection at all. Went another week of the 2x 1mg arimidex. Can't get an erection at all on Cialis. Tried Viagra nothing at all. Called doctor for blood work. Told me I needed to see head doctor instead because they use 1mg 5 to 7 days a week on all their male patients. We did blood work anyway. No more Arimidex for about a week now. I get weak morning wood and still nothing good for sex. I get a soft rubbery erection from Viagra that doesn't last long. I'm starting to get worried that this Arimidex has messed me up. I was doing very well without it and gaining confidence with sex and improvement overall.
Recent labs have me at
780 total testostrone
24 non sensative e2
65.1 total estrogen
It appears my estrogen is in the tank based on what my body would like to have. I'm worried because I've seen slight improvement in erection as the days go by but no real progress where I can have sex with a woman.
A mild case of ED low T has turned into a huge fiasco. Would you agree it's because of the Arimidex and Estrogen. How long will this go on for?
