E2 question

[Ryan624]

Alright so long story short i am on day 15 of my 500 test e cycle. Split into two 250 shots a week. Started with adex .25 mg eod and pretty sure ran e2 too low. Its been three days since my adex . Today i switched to aromisin 6.5 twice a day. I am getting blood work done in a week but am trying to figure out whats going on in the mean time. i have had daily morning wood. Not much of libido. Kind of on and off. Not a great erection. Lack of Sensation and dull orgasm. Itchy scalp and dry skin. Any thoughts on these symptoms?

[clarky.]

Did you get pre cycle bloods ??

After reading all the stuff about crashing your e2 and all that I've found for me I feel best with e2 is low as I can get it. Been staying between 8-20. It might be high. Bw. Also especially if u are using liquidex.

[Ryan624]

Yes i got pre cycle bloods. I can post later this evening. So you think possible high e2? I was thinking the opposite. Contemplating on taking .25 adex and if the problems go away ill know it was high. And vise versa. Just thought soreness at the gym, tiredness. Morning wood but low drive and peeing alot were all low e2 symptoms.

[RA]

This your first cycle?

[Ryan624]

First test only cycle. My previous cycle was test/ deca . Had trouble dialing e2 had to drop the deca

[RA]

Changed my mind. You definitely ran your e2 low. Back off on the ai and post up your new bw when you get it.

[Ryan624]

ok i just went back into workout journal...i didnt post my test shots on this but i do 250 test e every 3.5 days

may 14th adex.25 - felt awesome high libido great erection-

may 16th .25 adex didnt log workout

I really doubt that you crashed your estrogen on that dose unless your gear is under dosed. It's very common to run adex at .5 mg 2xew even on a trt dose of test.

[2iron]

What adex are u taking

[Ryan624]

liqui-dex from ar-r

[Ryan624]

RA what made you change your mind?

[Bio-Active]

liqui-dex from ar-r

I would question the test being under dosed

[Ryan624]

i have blood test from last cycle to show that test was through the roof. im using the same stuff

how high was your test level? Maybe you were not taking enough adex and your estrogen was high as well. .25 mg eod is a pretty low dose

[RA]

I assume you've been running .25 eod from the jump right? Your body takes a little time to increase the e2 to compensate. So you made it dive before it increased. That and your symptoms go along with that theory.

liqui-dex from ar-r

My mid bw using ar-r stuff was never close. 2x I ran it e2 was in 500 s and 300 s, use pharma stuff now and don't have a problem

[Ryan624]

when i get home ill try to dig up paperwork for bloods from last run.... and i started with .25 e3d after a week or so i jumped to eod. i almost wanna just take a dose now and if i dont feel better by tomorrow i can be pretty sure it was low. i dont go into drs for over a week so just trying my best to have a decent week until then.

[Ryan624]

what was your test dose and adex dose at the time??

[2iron]

what was your test dose and adex dose at the time??

500mg of unigen test e

[2iron]

I took over a mg a day for 3wk and e2 was still like 374

[Ryan624]

the only reason im thinking it may be high is because yesterday I took 6.5 mg of aromisin just to start low and try a different way. about an hour or so after. I had an immediate huge increase in appetite and felt a strong burst of libido. it was short lived, 5 or 6 hours later i felt back to the way ive been. could have been just the sugar pill effect. not sure if thats how fast aromisin does its job or not.

[2iron]

Getting dialed in is frustrating you have to really hammer bw it's the only way.

[RA]

Hows your water intake and diet?

[Ryan624]

yes im def going to get blood work done multiple times during cycle im sure. Another thing i failed to mention was that my bf % is 15 or 16%. I would think that i would be more likely to have high e2 symptoms than low. my hands also feel a little swollen. im thinking of trying 12.5 mg aromisin and seeing how i feel. pretty sure that stuff starts working right away so i should know whats what.

[Ryan624]

diets clean for the most part. 3,000-3500 cals a day. atleast 2 gals of water. 250 grams protein. atleast 300to 400 carbs

[Bio-Active]

The best thing you can do is get those labs done and take all the guess work out

[Ryan624]

whos the chick in your avatar?? holy shit

[Ryan624]

Estradiol, Serum Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
Follicle-Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Testosterone , Serum (Total Only)
Complete Blood Count (CBC) Comprehensive Metabolic Profile

I use personal labs. estradiol sensitive test, and basic erectile disfunction test

[Ryan624]

Thanks. How long of a process is it from order to results with personal labs?

[2iron]

Thanks. How long of a process is it from order to results with personal labs?

Takes minutes to order and print out lab order. Estradiol from blood draw to results 3 days max. The other test has highly sensitive testosterone test in it so for some reason it can take up to 10 days. Mostly 4 or 5 in my experience though.

[Ryan624]

l thanks. i failed to mention that before this cycle i was on a low dose clomid for hrt for 3 or 4 months. im sure this had my estrogen high going into cycle. and the test shot it even higher.
