    Question Effects of low/high estrogen levels on cycle??

    Hey fella's and ladies of course..

    Out of curiousity i was wondering what the effects of having too low or too high of estrogen levels while on cycle and how it would effect growth? In a recent topic i started about libido (libido probs on striaght test??) it was suggested to use an AI to stabilize levels and to get blood work done to check for such issues. I am looking into it and thankfully have noticed no signs such as gyno at all, but are my gains suffering or is it souly for the purpose of controling side effects? Also.. what are the risks of having 1. too low of estrogen and 2. too high of estrogen?
    Thank you for sharing any wisdom...

    Stats:
    29
    5'11''
    191 lbs
    BF: 9-10%
    first cycle, 3 weeks in, 500mg per week
    Testosterone , teston-B injection 400mg/mL
    Each mL contains:
    175mg test cyp,
    175mg test enan,
    50mg test prop.



    P.S ** Ont, Canada users ** anyone know the best way to get blood work done in this area? thinking just walking into my docs office and asking for random blood testing is kinda sketchy. How do you go about getting bloodwork done. Please tell your stories.. thank you

    I think too low estrogen and your libido will suck, too high and you might be very prone to gyno.

    Don't quote me on that though, wait for a more experienced member.

    Its all about balance, you need estrogen for growth so reducing it to much will have an effect on your gains. Having to much will create sides which will also will have an effect on your body gyno, libido ect. You dont want to completely rid your body of estrogen so finding the right AI and the dosage is vital. If your suffering from sensitive nipples/gyno/low sex drive you will probably be out of balance and you will need an AI to reduce it. Try a-dex 0.25EOD which ususally does the trick and is a good starting dose.
