why is my progesterone high but estrogen is not?

[MeroisHalne]

I’m doing sustanon 2CC’s per week. 500Mg, total.
I’m also using ½ a pill of adex 2-3x per week
I went and got blood work done and my estrogen levels were in the mid 30s which is normal.
However, my progesterone was high. Any idea why this would happen?

 

[PhillDragon]

are you taking anything other than testosterone?
hcg, for example!?

your body converts hormones as it sees fit.
you are taking an AI and therefore you are suppressing estrogen, but you are not taking anything against progesterone

 

[stevesmi]

I've seen this happen with bloodwork when guys took hcg
good call phil

otherwise its just a delay with estrogen coming back down to earth and a lagging indicator

 

[dylangemelli]

what else are you taking ? hcg is certainly a possibility but what other supplements are you taking and have you ever had progesterone tested before?

if estrogen goes down progesterone can go up for sure it happens Ive seen it

 

[SteveMobsterG]

Yep - what else?

 

[25homes]

need to know everything you taking bro

 

[Quadsweep]

its likely you took hcg at some point in the past 5-6 weeks

 

[BodyMonster34]

bro you need to get on letro
it will slam down estrogen fast trust me

 

[JasonPriest]

head over to domestic Supply and get on some anti estrogens immediately

 

[Monstro]

your progesterone should not be high. As a man it needs to be in line

 

[Vadim Fedorov]

I've seen some situations where it could be your estrogen and progesterone running inverted. It's not common but it happens

 

[2Thick]

hormones will throw off your numbers and a lot of cases. This is normal and nothing to be scared of

 

[e2]

you need to be careful here. High progesterone could lead to guy no issues

I don't agree. If your estrogen is in line and your progesterone should be in line too. Something is off

 

[chesty]

don't worry about it. This is sort of normal. Test again in four weeks

 

[ROIDDERS]

never seen a situation where progesterone and estrogen weren't on the same page. You probably have a lot of screwed up things going on

 

[ceo]

get on anti estrogens immediately. You don't want to end up with a surprise gyno situation

 

[ballin2504]

The guys are right? Is there anything else like hcg in the mix

 

[MasonicBodybuilder]

Sometimes the test are just whacky too. Maybe retest and see where it is at.

 

[Ol_Wolf]

I'd get some caber on hand and do a retest. One of the reasons blood work is so important is not everyone's body reacts the same to a given PED. Caber is much better at knocking down Progesterone in my experience. One investment a lot of people fail to make is having options in the med cabinet to counter different side effects.

Get your bloodwork done frequently to monitor the situation.....................
