E2 Sensitive 276 - Help!

[zentech]

Hey guys,

I got my results back the other day and the sensitive test was reading as a whopping 276 (see attachment). My TRT protocol is 125mg sustanon a week divided into 2 shots (62.5mg per), plus 500iu HCG 2x/week. For some reason I convert a lot of test into estrogen and need an AI to balance it out. How much Arimidex/Aromasin would you guys recommend?

Cheers

I would not do anything except continue as you are and retest that, labs do make mistakes and making changes to your dose would not be warranted. Verify that value and then adjust.

That seems like more of a lab error than anything else.
Where are you located?

Hi guys,

We use pmol/l in Australia. 276 pmol/l is equivalent to 75 pg/ml, which is still over 3x the desirable level (assuming a 22 pg/ml optimal target). My symptoms are low libido, ED, brain fog, fatigue, depression. Apologies for the confusion

You will get many varied opinions. 75 is high and would be way too high for me. No need to be at 22 or any other specific number. If you are having high E2 symptoms and you have high E2 numbers, you should treat the problem. I would start low with the anastrazole and monitor symptoms. Perhaps 0.25mg at the time of injections for a week and see how you are feeling.

22pg/ml optimal e2? Sounds like you’ve been hanging around t-nation? It will be difficult to interpret you value because that range isn’t typically used.

How long have you been on this protocol? I would drop hcg, keep test dose the same and retest in a month.

True, is a very poor forum...the standard AI dose there is .25mg EOD if I remember right!

That's like saying everyone should aim for a total testosterone of 500, because all men will feel optimal at that range, right?
