IGF-1 Levels for age 31

[NeedAdvice411]

Ok, I guess I am overreacting. I was just alarmed by such a huge drop from 293 to 123.

I take Anastrozole which is said to lower IGF-1. I might switch to Aromasin now though, I dont see a reason not to? Is there any big difference between switching from Anastrozole/Arimidex to Aromasin? And what would be the dose of Aromasin I should take in place of .5 of Anastrozole MWF?

I am not on cycle at the moment because I have a Doc appointment coming up and I dont want anything "fishy" showing up on my blood work. I take caber even off cycle sometimes because my Prolactin is naturally high and I like the added "benefits" of caber lol...but I am going to stop it now to see how it affects my IGF-1. How long will it take for my IGF-1 to bounce back from stopping/switching these 3 medications?

Anastrozole is the same thing as Arimidex, it is the generic/drug name. I have taken it and had sustained IGF-1 levels on it which then increased when I started a generic GH. I am not aware of it decreasing IGF-1 having only seen the study on the increases, and that was in a breast cancer study I believe.
Are you checking your estrogen levels to make sure of your dosage? That seems a little high to me on TRT but we're all different. I only require .25mg twice a week to maintain good estrogen on TRT.

As far as time for IGF-1 levels to rebound, I cannot answer that but I would not imagine it would be a long time (maybe check in 4 wks after dc of caber). I would not hesitate to start caber again with tren/deca, though. Benefits far outweigh the IGF-1 level.

Again, maybe some vets like kelkel will weigh in on the caber issue.
