[QUOTE="Appassionato, post: 170876, member: 37892"] The ranges are extrapolated from clinical observation of healthy young men. This is how, for example, the famous 20-30 pg/mL E2 optimal level has been extrapolated. Just a reminder you're doing Testosterone Replacement Therapy, which means trying to emulate what a healthy man hormone profile should be. So your analogy doesn't hold. There shouldn't be an E2 range for people on TRT and another one for normal people, because this undermine the whole purpose of TRT. Now, no one is telling you you have to be within this E2 range, because then it depends on the free amount of E2 that is circulating, and on your receptors sensitivity. Hence why everyone has been proven to be more or less sensitive to total E2 values. But saying that is healthy walking with E2 level of a woman is so ridiculous we shouldn't even discuss it. And especially here in the US, you have problems with two lobbies called FDA and medical insurances trying to lower ranges of total testosterone numbers, so that should be taken with a grain of salt. You don't develop symptoms from HCG right away, it takes time in some people. Especially gynecomastia. About 50 years of successful TRT protocols without checking numbers, well, that means you should go back injecting one every 2 weeks like they were doing 20 years ago. [/QUOTE]
