Test E cycle. was feeling great at first,. now tired, irritable, semi-emotional?

[hxt]

Im running test e 250 mg twice a week (M/Th)
Adex .25 mg EOD
and HCG 250 IU twice a week (M/TH)
im on week 4 of a 12 week cycle


at first I was feeling amazing, on top of the world. now I feel strange, almost emotional, Im running Adex so im not sure if my E2 is still to high or what. I just feel easily irritates, Im getting hot and sweaty easily. Im not super bloated but there is some bloating present.. absolutely no Gyno or sensitive nips. I know the general response will be "get blood work." which I will Just want to hear responses before My appointment on Wednesday.


also Ive been noticing, my erections aren't really staying hard. I have great morning wood but when it comes to sex. the organs is.. dull, and my sensitivity isn't as great as it used to be,


so im thinking.. is my e2 too high to low?

could it really get that low from Arimidex only .25 mg EOD?

Are you getting full extensive bloodwork Wednesday?

Personally, and some of the vets on here won't agree, but I never run an AI unless I start to notice sides. It should be noted that I am also on TRT from my doctor and all of my AAS cycles have been low doses. Again, this is what has been working for me, can't say if you'd experience the same.

Being TRT takes a lot out of the equation for me, PCT is not an issue as I am basically blast and then cruise with my TRT so "recovery" for me is different than others.

I know most people insist to run an AI the whole time but I'm not a fan of adding a bunch of compounds right out of the gate. I have adex, clomid, caber and hcg on hand but have never needed it. I get my blood tested every 60 days from my TRT doctor and thankfully have never been out of range except for the damn low t!!!

Yeah we don't agree beacuse high estrogen can lead to cancer and just beacuse you feel ok don't mean you are.This isn't the kind of advice you should share it can really hurt someone.

yes

But still hoping this confidence builds back up

[Dontworryaboutit]

Get a psych evaluation, depression?

As I said, I have my blood checked regularly with my doctor and estrogen is always checked and normal.

I wouldn't consider this advice, I am not advising anyone, I am sharing my personal experience.

This is exactly why. If you are the one person that can go full blast and have estrogen not raise, then sure, don't use an AI. But for 99.99999% of all people, estrogen will rise when cycle doses of test are used. So am AI should ALWAYS be used. Now if you're only talking about testosterone replacement, then you have a point. I don't use an AI for that because I domt need one. But if I use an extra 50mgs a week over my trt dose, my estrogen skyrockets. Estrogen, I've been told, is the most carcinogenic agent that can be introduced to a man's body. That says a lot when you compare that to smoking, drinking, asbestos, and other known carcinogens.

Again, I'm prescribed TRT by a doctor and have REGULAR blood work and the numbers have never called for it, on or off cycle. I was WAY low for when this all started,and not sure if that plays a role, but again I was only sharing my personal experience.

I feel like this horse is thoroughly beaten!!

pretty crazy that most of the stigmatic side effects that come from AAS, don't really even come from the testosterone increase, but the estrogen..

Yeah but these young kids don't always read everything so somethings are best left unsaid.
