Guest guest Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hi jlc forget about ratios just get some Arimidex cut the pills in half and take one half a pill everyday. I say this because my levels were 90 and we tried doing .5 mgs every otherday and in 4 weeks my blood work showed it did not move down. So we went on .5mgs everyday and it came down. What happened was my ED got much better I could have sex with my wife with out the help of Pills or Pumps and rings. I was having panic attacks this stoped and a low pain in my prostate with slow voiding was gone. High Estradiol " E2 " will mess you up bad. Also I got my morning wood back after not having them for 35 yrs. I now use this as a gauge to tell my how my E2 levels are doing. If I am getting morning wood every night I know my levels of E2 are good. So when you get some dam hard morning wood the kind that wakes you up you know your levels are good. When this happens back off the .5mg to every 3 days keep taking it but if wood stops it means your going to low so stop the arimidex until the wood comes back that day go back on it but cut the dose of Arimidex to .5 mgs every 4 days or do .25mgs every 3 days. Keep doing this until you find the right dose. So between morning wood and blood work you should be good to go. In time you will not have a low libido it will come back. I never lower my dose of Testosterone to bring down E2 but some have good luck doing this. If you can get by on lower levels try it. I can't. jlc9292 <jlc9292@...> wrote: My Testosterone levels are at 709 peak and 611 trough which is pretty good. I inject .75cc of DepoTestosterone weekly. Problem is that the Estradiol levels are around 100 at peak and only drop to around 70 at trough. Has anyone tried Arimidex to control the estrogen and what are the successes and side effecte. My libido is non-existent with the T:E2 ratio at about 7:1. Any advice. Thanks Co-Moderator " Don't believe anything you hear and only half of what you see.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 My doc put me on 1/2 Armidex 3 times a week. I also have to take DIM to keep the E2 down. My body makes E2 other than T to E2 converting. I feel like you do when my T:E2 ratio was less than 10:1 I try to keep it at 30:1 up to 50:1, Near 50:1 is best for me. Before hormone treatments I was about T:E2 ratio of 2:1. I was the walking dead. > > My Testosterone levels are at 709 peak and 611 trough which is pretty > good.

Thanks > I've been on Arimidex 1mg/day for a year now, without any added testosterone replacement (I abandoned Androgel a few weeks before going on Arimidex). Total testosterone is now typically at or above the high end of normal range, while estradiol is typically between 15 and 30. Works for me, but this regimen would only be appropriate for those whose gonads are actually producing testosterone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 I wish you would go to Dr. 's site and post this I keep telling them about you and they all say no way. Even Dr. feels this is not good to do. I am with your I have told many men that just got tested on the Thyroid Fourm that they need to get there Estradiol down before trying TRT and most of them that took Arimidex or even Indoplex/DIM got there testosterone levels back up with out doing TRT. Here is Dr. 's fourm let me know if you go there he was SWALE at the MESO site. http://anabolicminds.com/forum/male-anti-aging/ rtolz <no_reply > wrote: > > My Testosterone levels are at 709 peak and 611 trough which is pretty > good.

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 My anterior pituitary shut down, or at least that was what all the tests indicated..no FSH, LH at all with Total T down in the 60 range. Cortisol levels were normal. I am also hypothryoid as well as hypopituitary. The testicles were atropying and went through cycles of swelling and pain. The Epiditimus had hardened from a vasectomy many years ago and was also painful at times. There was also some evidence of varicose vein in the scrotum.. All considered my urologist, and I agreed, felt bilateral orchiectomy was the best long term solution. I had been on HRT (TRT) for a couple of years prior. Problem is that now the HRT drives the Estradiol level out of site. Excess of 100 on peak. Looking for solutions to get the estrogen under control and maintain a 600-800 range of Total T and usable Free Testosterone as well. Right now the estrogen is binding up everything. No libido, ED, and a host of other symptome indicitive of Testosterone v/s Estrogen imbalance. My ratio is about 7:1 and should be more like 30:1. Looking for solutions. Thanks for your input. > > > > > > My Testosterone levels are at 709 peak and 611 trough which is > > pretty > > > good. I inject .75cc of DepoTestosterone weekly.
