My Estrogen Frustration

[BigDadd7]

In August, I was on 450 test once per week, with aromasin 12.5mg once per week. My estrogen was 104 on 8/8.

I dropped the the dose to 250 once per week and dropped the aromasin. On 9/12. My estrogen was 128. This had me worried.

I split the 250 dose twice a week and added aromasin 25mg 3x per week. On 10/12 my estrogen is 10.

I expected it to drop, but not that much. Last Sunday, I added in some EQ at 100mg week split into two doses. I'm going to drop a lot of the aromasin.

The question is. How much aromasin to drop given the low dose of EQ? Obviously, 75 mg a week was too much. Whatever I do, I'll retest again 10/30.

I'd drop the masin completely just to see where you stand with just EQ. EQ does take awhile to build tho.

I think you're right. Aromasin nuked damn near everything and e2 will take a while to build back. Hopefully in a few more weeks the eq will be kicking in. It's so frustrating because I've been dealing with this e2 for months now.

Dude I mean jeez why did you go from 12.5 once a week to 3x 25mg lol
You know maybe increase shit slowly next time xD

I know...it was so high for so long, and then it went up to 128. I'm too old to start growing tits. I had to learn the hard way, like an idiot. I'm too old for that too.

Mine normally rectifies itself in 3-4 days, but I’m learning I bounce back quicker than a lot of people. It seems like as my bf% decreases I keep needing less and less AI, so trying to dial in dosing is a bitch. My doses from last month will destroy me now and I’ve crashed my shit like twice this month. Hell it’s too low right now lol. How are you feeling today?

I'm feeling better. Ive been on a weight stable recomp for the last 6 weeks or so. Prior to that I was in a cut and dropped 25 lbs. I'm certain that was part of the e2 issue and overboarding the ai. I will recheck e2 this Friday.

AI is a slippery slope. I hate it, and still don’t have a great grasp on it.

EQ is great at controlling e2 in some & others they can run 1:2 test EQ ratio with no estrogen change.

Just be careful. I had some nasty panic attacks on EQ when I crashed my estro lol

 

[BigDadd7]

I'm going to keep the eq low for at least 8 weeks total to see how it washes out.

im so happy i found this thread

ed dosing to e7d to chill out on scar tissue

went from 1g test = 90pg estrogen easily controlable with little ai

to 175g test 116pg/ml

doing 300 test 300 eq testing estrogen in few weeks on week 6-8 of test eq with frontload on both twice. bought ai. might just have to do e3.5d injection. such a bummer issue. will add ai in first before switching to e3.5d

think you have everything under control and then boom fuck you, what would we do without bloodwork.

 

[BigDadd7]

I think switching from cutting to recomp played a role in there, but I'm not certain how.

 

[BigDadd7]

So, I dropped the aromasin and added 150 eq on 10/5

250 test c and 150 eq left my e2 at 9 on 11/6. Lol

I've changed up to 300 test c and 100 eq. We'll see what it looks like in a month. For what it's worth, I feel like hammered dog shit.

I’d drop Aromasin entirely to see how much the eq does. Otherwise there’s 2 different compounds effecting e2. I like to isolate variables and if I can avoid taking Aromasin I will haha.

 

[BigDadd7]

I did drop aromasin a month ago
