Blood results - advice needed!

[tlowemm]

Hi all,

I recently started at Test E and Tbol cycle, running 500mg/week Test e/0.25mg Arimidex EOD/500ui HCG /week.

Last week I got bloods taken, so by this stage I had pinned 5 times and got results today, a few of which concerned me:

Testosterone : 37.8 nmol/L (range: 8.6-29.0) (or 1089 ng/dL)
Oestradiol: 528 pmol/L (range:28-156) (or 143 pg/mL)

So clearly my estrogen is high, so I was planning on doubling my dose of Armidex to 0.5mg EOD, does everyone think this would be enough?

I'm also worried that my test might be a little lower than it should be? I suspect underdosed gear, however my friend who is on the same stuff has a test level of 50.5! (I'm 24 FYI) Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

If your E is through the roof that indicates your gear is good. T turns to E. Up your adex dosage. Everyone aromatizes at different rates.
You need to give it more time for your test serum to build, that's all. It takes time.
Great job testing though. Smart and more should follow suit.

First post as well. Welcome to the forum. Be sure to read all the educational threads. Particularly Austinites Educational Articles Database.

Thanks for the reply! I have read in a few places that Test should be sky high, not just elevated as mine is? Do you think doubling adex will be sufficient?

I'm quite lucky in the testing department in that a local council-funded clinic offers free blood tests, so I will be going again in 2 weeks for further tests.

I have read them all many times over! My protocol is actually from Austinites thread.

Everyone metabolizes differently and as stated, serum levels take time to build. Just be patient and they'll get there. You need to up your adex. Doubling may be to much but only BW will tell. Luckily you have great access to it. Slow, incremental changes are best or you'll end up at the other end of the spectrum. Glad you read his stuff. ALL is well written. Think he has a ghost writer.......jk
