HRT question on sustanon

[ToonNoon]

my doctor has me taking sustanon 250 every 3 weeks, i suffer from hypogonadism, atleast that was my diagnosis from him. the problem is my estrogen came in at 50 which is way above normal where it should be. i am using adex .5mg EOD but since i started i am dealing with feeling tired and weak. my doctor said its normal. that true?

 

[dylangemelli]

how long has this been going on? have you had your estrogen checked again?

 

[SteveMobsterG]

It's an issue when estrogen levels are off yes.

That is an awful protocol. You should fire your doctor and get one that has a better understanding of a good HRT protocol. You do not want to be using an AI on TRT. Estrogen in the right amount is neuro-protective and essential for the body to function normally. What you want to find is a protocol that will put you in the higher end of normal regarding test without having estrogen issues. I find more and more that the estrogen issues are not due to the test dose but the actual frequency of pinning. I recommend pinning every day if you can or EOD at minimum. A good dose is going to land around 100-200mg per week. Dosing test once every 3 weeks is awful. You will spike your test dose, spike estrogen, and then slowly come down and start to feel worse over the next 2 weeks. Your body wants homeostasis and needs to be levelled out.

sustanon was designed to be used at a higher dosage infrequently

i actually see no issues with your 250 every 3 weeks. i just find it odd that your estrogen is too high. would like to know exactly what you are doing and see your bloods

Every 3 weeks is a roller coaster on your hormones. You need a different protocol

When was the last time you got blood work done?

 

[cbbram]

your estrogen is high because of infrequent injections. starting an AI can make you drowsy it will pass
