Trt issues

I started trt on Dec 30th 2020. I do 100mg of test weekly split into mon, wed, Fri injections. I take. .125mg of ai on mon, wed, Fri
I'm wondering when I should take my ai. I can't get into the Dr's until March 1st so I'm asking you guys. I'm currently taking too much ai but wondering what days I should take the ai to make sure it's still in my system while I inject more t. I started taking it because I got puffy sensitive nips at the 3 week mark. They aren't that sensitive anymore but still get puffy almost every evening/night time. Weirdly my bloodwork points to the fact I shouldn't be getting this. I had to start taking tamoxifen because I don't want my gyno to come back. If I keep injecting mon, wed, Fri what days should I take my ai? This bloodwork was done Wednesday morning before my ai and injection. Thanks in advance!

Serum t is 844. Ref rage is 264-916
Free t is 21.2 ref rage is 6.8-21.05
Prolactin is 4.3 ref rage is 4.0-15.02
Sensitive E is 19.1 ref rage is 8-35

This is a common occurrence when one is adjusting to a new protocol or someone just starting out on TRT.

Once hormones are stabilized these symptoms usually subside. By the way puffy nipples in no way mean you will get gyno.

If you're currently taking too much AI, try taking two doses twice weekly instead of three times.

Thank you for the response. I'm going to try the 2 days per week but which 2 days should I do? I don't know how anastrazole or the half life works. Would every Monday and Thursday work if I keep doing mon, wed, Fri injections?

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.
