OK went to daily injections with no HCG. Injecting 10mg/ml a day for a total dose of 140 mg/ml a week. Just got my labs back and they are pretty damn perfect, i.e, total T = 1039; free T = 19.7 (7.2-24); DHEA = 256.1; Estradiol = 20.4 (8-35); SHBG = 31.1 (19.3-76.4). Pretty damn perfect, right?! So I am prone to aromatizing E2, so there is no doubt that daily injections "cured" my E2 issue. However prior to this test I also stopped the HCG because I thought it was probably spiking my E2. I still think that is the case. So if I want to continue using HCG I am likely going to have to take .25 mg of Anastrazole twice a week after my 2x a week HCG shots. I feel like HCG helps with libido and I hate shrunken balls. That said, with or without HCG I still feel like I retain too much water. Water retention is worse with HCG however. Any ideas on the water retention issue without the use of yet another drug would be greatly appreciated.
