On 500mg test and sex drive dropped to zero?

**VR4** · 04-01-2010, 07:46 AM

I'm on week 5 of 500mg/wk test e. The first 3 or 4 weeks my sex drive seemed to be going up, but now it's dropped rediculously low and I am having trouble achieving an erection.
I believe my estrogen is going too high...?
I have almost every ancillary on hand...I'm wondering what I should take. I'm hoping a low dose of arimidex will be sufficient to recover my sex drive.

ARent you the one who did Deca only a while back and said that you had zero issues?

Anyways could be a number of things but yes first get your estrogen under control. You having any other estrogen related signs?

Prolactin....not too sure bout that spiking but that is huge when it comes to killling your libido as well.

**VR4** · 04-01-2010, 12:39 PM

Ya that was me. But I did get problems a couple of weeks later.

But no I don't have any other estrogen related signs. Except maybe being lethargic..but I'm not so sure on that. Never had any gyno issues whatsoever either.
I have caber on hand also...but I don't think that would be an issue with my cycle.
So...where do I start?

**BOBBY D** · 04-01-2010, 12:58 PM

test e or any administered test should give you raging hard ons all throughout cycle.. My only guess is that your gear is fake?

I would go to the doctor & get your testosterone levels checked to see what the hell is up..

**VR4** · 04-01-2010, 01:55 PM

The gear is legit. I've been making good gains so far.

**Spartans09** · 04-01-2010, 01:59 PM

Work in the arimidex at .25 mg/day for about a week and see if that helps. If it does then I would slightly back down from .25 mg/day. Maybe .25 eod or .125/day. You dont want to crush estrogen too low or you'll end up with problems too.

**VR4** · 04-01-2010, 04:12 PM

Ok thanks....Does everyone else agree with this?

**slimy** · 04-01-2010, 04:42 PM

I'd start with A-dex. If it doesn't help, try Cabergoline. That stuff makes me horny as hell.

Dukkit put up a Caber thread, check it out.

I would definitely be using some type of estrogen control.
Also a super addition to any cycle,,,especially to help increase
sex drive is some PROVIRON . It helps free bound test,,and even acts as
a mild anti E.

i had the same symptoms pretty much. and i started Adex at .3mg EOD. cleared me right up.

**lovbyts** · 04-01-2010, 08:35 PM

Agreed, arimidex at .25 mg/EOD

**smiler** · 04-01-2010, 11:01 PM

NO WAY!!! I don't think your gear is fake but no way it's test! I bet deca . simple label mistake. there is no way bro sorry

**VR4** · 04-02-2010, 09:51 AM

Thanks for the help guys...I'm in day 2 of adex...hope it works.

this is absolutely possible with his estrogen being to high low sex drive and being lethargic are perfect signs of an over abundence of estrogen
I totally agree with adex i would run the dose .25 eod and see if that clears it up if not then up the dose.

Peace

**dieseljimmy** · 04-02-2010, 11:01 AM

did someone say proviron ? if so I agree with them.

sorry nope!!! i don't care how much estrogen he has, he got it by the conversion of the test. NO WAY IN THE WORLD!!!!

**smiler** · 04-02-2010, 02:11 PM

high estrogen would affect your sex drive if your test was low. sorry guys but nope

No.

Get a BW first and then decide what to take.

**BJJ** · 04-02-2010, 02:13 PM

Also, next time you run a test cycle, stack mesterolone with.

i just dug out my paperwork from last BW total test 3865!!! estrogen, total...319 both very very high. had this checked after coming off adex to see how high it would get. have no estrogen sides so no worries. used to take adex daily but after all the debates here i decided to try without. my estrogen is thru the roof an so is my sex drive!

i am now doing .25 adex 2xew. i will see how that works but let me assure you, if your estrogen is high due to conversion from the high test...your sex drive is huge!!! your shooten deca and I'd bet on it. easy, simply mislabel problem.

Sorry, I just want to ask why is it not good to run Arimidex every day. On the main page of the site most cycles mentioned use a .5mg/ed!!

there has been so much debate on whether "some" estrogen is good for serious muscle gain or not. i actually don't know. i used to take .5 ed and thought i wanted zero estrogen, or as close as i could get to zero. now im just not so sure. i do believe we need some but how much? who knows. i do know when i come off adex completely i get no estro sides except moody like a girl. so why take it? like i said i now take .25 twice a week. will see how it works for me

I agree. Only a blood test will tell you if the test levels are an issue. I cant see having your problem if the test is legit.

**durak** · 04-06-2010, 06:28 PM

I have seen this in several threads but never a final answer.

depending how much estrogen you actually have. running adex everyday, can crash your estrogen too low. which can give you a lot of sh!tty sides as well.

i had mine done....still doesn't answer the question about estrogen, if it's way high is that a bad thing? if it's way low? i don't think we truly know just yet

you dont want too low, or you can get lethargic and sacrifice gains. as far as it being high, thats more personal. if you arent getting gyno, and crying when you see commercials with cute kittens. then dont worry about it. but generally high estrogen has a host of sh!tty sides that you dont want. i dont need BW to know my estro is getting high, i can feel it in my mood. thats when ill start adex.

BW is definitely a helpful tool. but while youre sitting around waiting a week for results. you could fix a lot of problems by comparing your sides to what others have, and taking the reccomended drug for your likely condition.

i used to believe i wanted zero and strived for it. i took an entire adex ed (script) i don't seem to notice a difference either way. if i had to choose i think i got better gains taking adex more and more often but.... i still think we just dont know. prolly not enough research here yet. post some up if anyone has some. i may be wrong
