Adjusting T levels and the right estradiol test question

I have never had some key tests done as I'm now finding out...no DHEA for example or DHT.

My thyroid tests were:
T4: 9.2 ref range 4.5 - 12.5
TSH High Sensitivity: 0.64 ref range 0.45 - 4.5

Prolactin 7.8 ref range 2.5 - 17.0

My E2 on Androgel was 30, recently 47 and 40 on last two tests respectively.

My intial T level was 220 at the time of being diagnosed. 5g of Androgel put it at 453 and about 600 at 10g. The 30 e2 was at 10g Androgel.

All other tests like blood lipids and CBC came back normal.

When i get me next tests done, I'll ask that those you suggested be included. Thanks again for your helpful advice.

You should expect E2=30 when on daily T-shots.

If you end up with e2=30
on this test:
(Estradiol, Ultrasensitive, LC/MS/MS (30289X)

think twice before making any attempt on lowering it.
With this prospect for E2=30, lets say that for now you are not going to inject (T or HCG) around (fat) navel.

Jansz I respect the idea the fact that you are trying to help, but when dealing with the ultrasensitive range <29 your goal is mid range depsite the old scale it does not even compare to this one. I have results calibrate from numberous rhiens labs and blood test drawn the same day to correleate the goal is mid range of <29 range. So do not get the 2 confused. My rhiens came out to be perfect with blood serum matching it at <12. i have others that are coming up <7 and <16. These are healthy young bodybuilders steroid free at 20-25 years old hitting t levels of 600 but with good bio T so I have been creating a optimal male model for the new e2 ranges..

Yeah, I'll definitely not be injecting any T into navel area. The leg is very convenient and as i mentioned in previous posts, quite fat free in my case. I'll be very curious to see if after a couple weeks I feel better and also to have the additional blood work done and get a good picture of what's going on. Thanks again!

Han;
friendlymachine was all over the place, on large T-shots then on Androgel.
On Androgel he was E2=30
I think the most important is to get him into proper and stable levels for prolonged time.
The attempt is to get him there without use of any AI, Arimidex(pills)=Liquidex(liquid)=Anastrozole(liquid)
Right now I posted goals for him, post #2 this thread:

Goals:
DHEAS(500-640)
E2(25-29)
DHT(60-90)
BAT(460-575)
BAT=BioAvailableTestosterne

-----------------------------------
After hi is stable and within those goals, we can revisit E2 and see if he can buy any improvement tweaking E2.
In my opinion most any hormone is better when at higher end of desirable range, probably only cortisol is exception.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
As you know, when using AI E2 levels are hard to stabilize.
It is impossible to find correct AI dose that would work for more than month or two.

=============================================
friendlymachine decided to do daily T & HCG shots
I think he have a good chance at stabilizing at his body's optimal levels.
