High e2 on 2.5mg anastrozole per week

Seems strange. Have you considered doing your bloods work by another company?
If your e2 is not moving then switch to aromasin

Ive had one test done elsewhere and the results were consistent. So its not like the place I usually go are just making the numbers up.

Anastrozole definitely used to work fine for me on the Testogel. I had 2 tests without anastrozole, and 3 with, and anastrozole consistently halved my e2 on 1mg per week.

Maybe aromasin would make a difference. But I don’t see how.

You can’t just not respond to it. Aromasin is completely different than arimidex. It’s a steroid and it’s suicidal. Switch to that and retest

I think it’s more likely the subq causing the high e2. Then again, I also thought it was the HCG and I was wrong about that lol.

I’ll try a different AI if it isn’t the subq. Thanks for the help!

I’ve done the maths on it. Assuming HCG doesn’t affect my e2 at all, at 210mg test per week and 3.5mg anastrozole per week I am expecting an e2 of 107pmol/L based on my last blood test.

This assumes testosterone and anastrozole linearly affects e2 as a multiplier (double the T means double the e2, and double the anastrozole means half the e2).

If my e2 is around 107 or higher, I will assume either:
-I am not actually going IM with the test
-I am going IM and thus anastrozole doesn’t do shit for me now
-my total T is somehow incredibly high on a low dose

If my e2 is significantly lower, I will assume either:
-IM injections give me lower e2
-anastrozole works much stronger with just 1mg a week more

I’m still confused why my e2 is so damn high. Nothing makes sense

I got 83pmol/l. Close enough to 107 for me to conclude the following:
-IM doesn’t affect my e2 much
-either anastrozole doesn’t work well for me, or my total T is somehow very high

Sorry to quadruple post. Just wanted to update anyone who’s interested.

I’m now taking 100iu hcg every day. 90mg test enanthate every other day subq. 12.5mg exemestane every day. Gonna retest and see what happens to my e2

IM doesn’t affect my e2 much

I meant IM vs subq seems to make little difference

-90mg TE EoD subq
-100iu HCG ED
-12.5mg exemestane ED

These are the results 24 hours after last TE injection, and 12 hours after last exemestane dose


I guess the exemestane isn’t any more effective than the anastrozole.

I have noticed awful joint pain since starting the exemestane, but maybe that’s a coincidence.

What’s the next move here? Take 25mg exemestane a day? Seems a bit excessive.
