    gyno?/anastrozole?/HELP!!!

    let me try this again!!! just don't want to head the wrong direction down the road.....


    hello, i'm new to this forum. but, i have been reading from it for the last few months. i am 41 yrs. old and started HRT treatment. for 4 weeks i took 100mg of cypionate every week. then on the 5th week i bumped it up to 150mg. seemed like energy was falling off. anyway now i am back to 100mg. per week. HERE'S THE QUESTION... my nipples became sore/raw. i ended up seeing DR. yesterday and he prescribed me 1mg. of anastrozole per day. before i started treatment i had a list of ?'s and if i needed some kind of AI or SERMS was one of the questions. of course he said "no". so now here we are.... the best i can come up with is take 1mg. per day until soreness is gone, then some sort of low dose to keep GYNO away... what would your opinions be??

    Start with .5 every other day at the most. Split dose to twice a week may not need it at all.

    holy crap 1 mg per day! brother your doc is trying to nuke you and he has no clue why. 1 mg per day is like getting a chemo therapy session, my advice is to do BW testing your E2, sensitive assay is the preferred test, then treat yourself accordantly. if you can, do what 100% suggested to split your T dose to twice a week, this will help reduce the e2 conversion rate. BW first then treat.

    thankyou guy's. it's scary how little these DR.'S seem to know. so since i took 1mg. yesterday. wait until tom. to take .5mg eod. then split the dose to .25mg twice a week??? did i understand that correctly?

    reading what 100% suggested again. i believe he's saying .5mg eod then drop to .5mg twice a week. how long should i continue with .5mg eod???

    now i am confused again... 100% says split dose to twice a week. was he talking about ameridex or test? bass seems to be telling me to split test shots to twice a week to help reduce the e2 conversion rate.

    Split your test dose in half and inject twice per week. Less injected at one time equals less E2 conversion. If you still need an AI take the smallest amount possible 24 hrs after each injection. Like .25mg.
    Consider a short run with nolvadex to eliminate sensitivity / problems while you get things under control with BW.
    Your doc's a retard.

    Consider lowtestosterone.com as well. If you go to another doctor's office call them first and speak to one of the nurses. Simply ask them if the doc will treat you with test, HCG and an AI if necessary. Tell them you don't want to waste his time and yours by taking up an appointment if not. If they don't know ask them to call you back.
