[QUOTE="Gman86, post: 136209, member: 15043"] So you’re labs do look pretty good, apart from your E2. I would say it’s way too low, based off of your SHBG. With you having a SHBG of 51, you have plenty of room for your E2 to go up. So I would 100% stop taking the ai. You could also try dropping the HCG as well, even just temporarily to see if you notice any differences, good or bad. But I would absolutely stop the ai. I also agree with Captain, it could absolutely be related to the Zoloft. I understand you didn’t feel like this before TRT, so it seems like TRT would be the obvious thing to blame, but Zoloft messes with key mechanisms in your body/ brain, and TRT alters things as well. So it could be the combination of the two at the same time that’s causing you to feel the way you do. All I know though, is if I was on an SSRI, I would be looking for every way possible to get off of it. They definitely have their place, but me personally, I would hate putting that stuff in my body everyday, knowing the disregulation it’s doing in regards to neurotransmitter output, neurotransmitter receptors, and just overall how my body regulates serotonin.
