    Bloodwork results

    Will using an AI increase test levels dramatically on bloodwork?

    I have heard only a slight increase or just a better t to e ratio giving a similar affect
    One of my doctors considered ai only treatmeant as sort of a hormone therapy

    Thanks for the info. I just added an AI to my regiment, and didn't want to go the dr and my levels be too high.

    Do not overdue the AI. Way to many people have been crashing their E here by using too much. Be careful with it. Less = more here.

    I've learned a lot on these forums, and have taken note of that trend. Tanking e2 doesn't sound like anything I want any part of! I'm starting at .5 every 3 days, might consider every 4 since I have 10 days between injections.

    What are your E2 levels?

    Did you get your blood tested?

    I've had bloodwork done, but no mention of e2 levels from my dr. I'm prescribed 200ml evert 10 days. I've had problems with acne on my chest and back, and holding water. 2 doses of AI and probs have resided. Just don't want test levels to go up too high. Is it advisable to use AI 'as needed ' basis?

    AI's are one of, if not the trickiest part of male HRT. it's a trial and error thing and nobody is the same.

    start out very slow with it. many people crash their e2 with aggressive AI use, but very mild use is often plenty.

    If your self-injecting, split the dose and go every 5 days. You'll feel a lot better.
