First off, I'd combine the hcg with the cyp and cut your injections down. Cutting it back may help but remember a lot of hcg's E2 conversion is intratesticular and not affected by AI's. A thought would be to skip your HCG for a handful of days prior to your next BW and then test. See the difference then you can evaluate it better. If I recall correctly you pull BW very frequently, correct?

Still think a decent option is another small titration down based on your FT level.
Curious. How would it benefit me to inject hCG the same day as the Cyp?

Another thing, I seem to remember some controversy about whether hCG's E2 conversion is only intratesticular. My thought is that if the testes is making more T that ends up in the bloodstream, you're gonna have more serum E2 along with it. That's the reason I cut back on my hCG to begin with.

I'm also reluctant to titrate down my Cyp much lower as I feel I do better on the higher end of the scale. This is subjective, of course. If my E2 was lower and my libido improved, I'd be very satisfied with lower T levels. I've got to bring that E2 down.

Yes. BW every 4 weeks or so.
