Waiting on labs...looking to stop...PCT questions

So as some of you have probably read on past posts I have made, I have never really felt GREAT on TRT.
It has been one big try this, try that, ok, stop this, add that, etc.

I give a BIG way to go to those who have stuck with it for years trying to get dialed in. For me, I am kinda over it at this point.

I just had a blood draw to see where things are at, and unless there is some glaring issue that can be addressed, I am planning on pulling the plug for now.

Now my question is since I seem to be very sensitive to E and things that make E spike, I am worried about Clomid. And as well as hCG as it causes my E to spike.

So I have read that Nolvadex seems to work better for some and does not seem to creat the high E issues.
Looking for input from those who have used it before and what to expect.

Again, maybe something in these latest labs will convince me to stick it out, but I want an exit strategy if not.

Thanks

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.
