Adding Dhea to trt?

[Mmaman]

It’s possible, thought there could be something else going on.
I am personally a low aromatizer as well, but nowhere near as bad as what you’re describing. Basically, on my normal TRT dose (100/week) I’m still barely in the normal range (it hovers between 14-16). Even when on 500+mg cycles, I barely break into the low 60s. I’ve just learned to live with it, because nothing that I do, short of getting fat or introducing exogenous E2 seems to bring it up.
As I said, I tried DHEA, and all it did was give me bad skin and burning nipples, and did precisely nothing to increase my E2.

What do u mean something else going on?

What is your total and free test when E2 levels are this low?
How about DHT?

1500+! Free t 393 ,dht 328

Interesting.
What’s your current body comp looking like?
Mainly asking, as you may be in the same boat that I am. Some people just don’t have much in the way of aromatase enzyme production without being excessively fat. Or you could just have a high production of 5a-reductase, which would explain the DHT levels and is basically causing a “starvation” of available test for estradiol production.
On the bright side, this would mean you’ll never have to worry about E2 skyrocketing on aromatizing compounds. On the downside, it means that you’re probably going to have to, as I do, live with it, get fatter and hope it works, or go with my original suggestion and microdose estradiol.
When I say that, I mean the lowest possible dose you can split down to, ride it for a week, see if symptoms improve, get new bloods, and repeat until you are where you want to be.

With the lockdown I’m still waiting on my power rack Im def not skinny prob around 20 percent body fat! I also only do delt injections as I hear that’s best for absorbing it!

Rotate the injection sites and dhea won't do shit for E2.

Definitely rotate your sites. I have 16 that I use, purely to avoid building a shitload of scar tissue in any single muscles.
If you’re actually that high in body fat, and your E2 conversion is that low, you’re definitely going to want to follow the exogenous route. Frankly, I cannot think of anything else that could be causing it, unless your gear lab got the bright idea to put AI into their blend.
That sounds stupid, but fucking doctors everywhere are currently having TRT patients stuff compounded with built in AIs, and it’s fucking people all up.

Ed injections help with lowering e2?
