Wow Aromasin is strong stuff.

[oakdad]

I started off with just 100 mg a week (done by the nurse)
I had the following values from a Noon Tuesday blood sample (do shots Thursdays around Noon)
Estradiol 57 (no ranges given sorry)
Free T 13.7
Total T 458

I got the doc to proscribe me Aromasin because the E levels where just to high.
I got the 30 Pfizer 25 mg tablets (man are they ever small) and spent over 2 hours quartering them.
For 2 weeks I took 1/4 tablet or ~6.25 mg of Aromasin every day.
This time the sample was taken on Thursday noon just before my shot and the last piece of pill the night before at about 8pm
My values changed to
Estradiol 22 (again no ranges given)
Free T 27.4
Total T 652

Now those levels sound killer, but it is now a week and a half later and I am starting to get the tender knees, feet, fingers some peeps talk about when their E levels are to low.

Would like to know do you guys think is it possible 2 weeks wasn't a long of period of time for the full effect of the Aromasin?
I am now thinking perhaps Aromasin might simply be to strong and that perhaps I should be using Proviron instead of Aromasin. After all the whole reason we started TRT was because of ED issues and my E level of 30 before starting HRT is about right to begin with.

P.S.
I had also started my own shots so the amount of T could be higher since I push some T out of the needle until the top part of the plunger hits .5 ML.

you didnt mention if your primary symptom improved is this now a secondary concern now that youre askin about the sore knees?

How do you feel? How do you felt before and now? Thank you

[j4ever41]

instead of taking everyday try eod

[oakdad]

Well adding Aromasin made a world of differance compared to not having it and I felt I was on top of the world when that blood sample was taken. My consern is how my hands, feet, and knees feel now. I am also not getting any morning wood now, 2 weeks ago I was at least noticing something was going on down there when I woke up. Which is sadly the best I have had in ages. I so would like to just get it on with the wife at a moments notice. I so hate the well give me an hour and I will be ready to go stuff.

[j4ever41]

i hear on that hour thing,tha hell with that, i would try eod with the same dose and see how that works,that should let you e rise

[zaggahamma]

agree wit fellas above...eod is the most common dose

[ecsaaron]

supplement with a little cialis with the eod on the aromasin and see if that works..I use the liquid from arr and I like it better than the pharm grade.

you have your dosage to high i have even gone with E3D as 12.5 kicked the crap out of my E2.
On that type of dosage i went from 46 to <10
test range of <10 to 54

I just got another blood test done and I was right my levels have lowered.
I came back with the following.
Total T 535
Free T 16.1
Estradol 15

Now what I don't get is why my Free T and Total T numbers lowered also. (though I am guessing my bodies T production is still falling)
None the less I am thinking we need to up my injections from 100 units once a week to 160. Mathatically that would mean an increase of 1.6 to all those levels so my Total T levels would be 856, Free T would be 25.76 and the E level be 24.
What do you think is it going to be as simple as increasing me injections as above and all 3 of my levels will drop into place?

Nope first question is while covering up the numbers do you feel better?
Did the EoD application of Aromasin help fix the wood issue? I am so sensitive to it I am taking it only when I feel my nips get super sensitive and my wood start to go BLAH.. Once a week seems to lower it enough for me but I am going to get an insulin needle and try some lower EOD doses as I am starting to notice my ups and downs.

[oakdad]

The funny thing is other than maybe loosing about 5 lbs nothing was changed between the 2 text which are 4 weeks apart from one another. (well unless Test. gets weaker with age since it was the same bottle for the past 3 months)
So I am going to talk to the doc next week as to what we can do to get the numbers a bit better. My thought I was put it out here to see what you guys thought before talking to him.

All you need to do is spread apart your dosages of Aromasin ..... try e3d dosing...... your e levels will rise and once the wood returns and your feeling good that will be your sweet spot... it takes about a month or so to figure what dosages your body needs in regards to test and E.... its all trial and error.....
