Hello,,,, Im on TRT ... 300mg E2W... recently it aggrivated my gyno so I had some blood work done.... Unfortunately the test was taken just when the sypmtoms were subsiding on their own... but the gyno was still being affected but not as much....
Free T4 1.0 Range: .9 - 1.8
FSH <1.0 Range: 1.4 - 18.1
Luetinizing Hormone <0.3 Range: 1.5 - 9.3
Testosterone, Total 751 Range: 241 - 827
Estogens, Serum Fract
Estradiol 16 Range: 18 - 67
Estrone 37 Range: ? didn't list it
Total Estrogens 53 Range: 29 - 127
I have been taking TRT for over 3yrs..... Recently I changed from Androgel to Test E. and my dosage was increased.... just before I changed I stopped my Androgel and waited... then tested my Testosterone level and it was just under 200... Then I started the shots.... The above blood work is with the shots of Test E.....
As you can see my LH has dropped to almost nothing but never stopped.... FSH is just under normal range... Testosterone is in the High end where I want it...
Total Estrogens is my problem... Even at the High side of Test levels the Estrogens are just mid way... but even at that level the gyno was bothering me....
So what I was thinking was a little Aromasin would help,,, I don't want to drop the Test E dosage lower don't ya know.... Also even though Im at the high end of the Test scale in no way am I as horny as when I was in my late 20's so just thinking about that makes me think that SHBG is playing a big role here....
On another note:
You might notice that my TSH looks normal but I have had Hypothyroid symptoms since I was in my 20's and the symptoms have increased... I have had Chronic Fatigue and mild depression for 2yrs and just a lack of drive for anything I used to love to do like hobbies ect...Keeping the fat off of me has always been a problem... My Free T4 is on the low end of the scale... The Dr. still thinks my Thyroid is ok... But he is completely wrong... I know my body and I can tell what is going on... So I recently purchased "Armour Thyroid" it's a desicated natural porcine derived with T4 38mcg and T3 9mcg... gradually upped my dosage to 2 tablets (1Grain each... natural desicated thyroid is measured in Grains) and low and behold all my symptoms evaportated... Chronic Fatigue-Depression--were gone!... I had energy and a new drive in life like I once had... There are many symptoms of Hypothyroidism and I had quite a few and still the Dr. said I was ok... but sure enough when I took the thyroid medication ALL symptoms were gone!... Dr's would rather put you on Antidepressants that never cure you and you have lot's of unwanted sides.... The Armour Thyroid makes me feel normal!
Thyroid also has alot to do with sex drive too... so bringing up my thyroid level might also increase my sex drive and Test levels more....
Testosterone and Thyroid work synergistically together... Im sure the combo of Test + Thyroid was the magic pill I was looking for... for 2yrs
If you have Chronic Fatigue this may be what you are looking for... it works fantastic for me!... for a long time gettting out of bed was chore! Now I feel great and Im ready for my first Cycle... Im going to Cycle with Primobolan @400mg EW for 16 weeks + my usual 300mg E2W of Test E ..... I don't care about getting huge... I gain muscle easy anyway,,, I just want to get a boost back in the game with something that will build lean muscle without fat and estrogen problems... I can't wait... Im counting the days until it arrives... 4 days more... Tick Toc Tick Toc.... Thanks GenXXL!
If anyone can point me in the right direction to get the best price for Aromasin I would definately appreciate it...
I just touched on some of the symptoms of Hypothyroidism above,,, I had many more symptoms like poor memory and concentration.... that alone was driving me crazy because I usually had a great memory and concentration.... Anyway here are some more symptoms...
