Best at home estradiol test?

[crallin]

Does anyone have any recommendations for an at home estradiol test? My closest testing facility is 2 hrs away.

I'm not sure but I see em advertised pretty regular. Next time they pop up in my feed I'll try to remember to post link here

In the mean time, I know there is no way to really know without testing, but is AI use linear?

For example, I was taking 1mg a week anastrozole when on 200mg test c with 600 hcg which put my e2 at 55. At the advice of my trt doctor I went up to 1.5mg per week which tanked my e2 down to 9 and I felt like shit with Ed issues aka no erections. I'm now taking 525mg of test c, 600hcg, and 50mg anavar. Just trying to guess so I am close. I'm taking 2mg of anastrozole a week assuming it's a basic linear equation and erroring on the side of having too much e2 versus too little. So far, no major negative side effects as my dick gets hard, just a little less sensitivity making orgasm harder and running sweaty. I know I need to test and will do so this next week one way or another, just wanted other's thoughts.

It's impossible to guess. Need to get bloods to confirm

The Saliva Steroid LC-MS Hormone Profile 7 test quantifies the relative levels of estrogens E1, E2, and E3, providing valuable insights for men undergoing biestrogen trt therapy receiving testosterone supplementation.
Saliva hormone test kits afford a hassle-free, prompt, and reliable means of testing, bypassing the need for a doctor's or laboratory engagement, with saliva collection typically occurring in the morning when hormone levels are most elevated..

While there are various methods, one particularly being blood work, Yet there is another that's a reliable and underutilized approach is the use of a home saliva testing kit. This method offers multiple daily testing opportunities with differing outputs.

Despite its importance, one method that is often overlooked in discussions across the internet and social media platforms is the one that I'm emphasizing should be considered and explored.

Home saliva testing kits offer a reliable method for testing, allowing individuals to check their status multiple times a day with different outputs. (Putting people in more of a semi-controlled setting, rather than a quick snapshot such as blood work where results will vary).

Amazon offers a range of home testing kits, priced between $35 and $175, with varying features and levels of accuracy. When making a purchase, people are advised to exercise their judgment when choosing a testing kit, taking into account the correlation between price and quality.

I bit the bullet and drove to have labs done this past weekend and just got them back. My estradiol was 34. Test was greater than 1500 go figure. They didn't order the right test.

I'm currently taking:
525mg Test C per week (75mg daily)
50mg Anavar daily (25mg morning, 25mg night)
600 iu HCG per week (200iu 3x week)
1.75mg arimidex per week (.25mg daily)
5mg cialis daily
5% liver and organ vitamins
A few other vitamins (multi, dimm, iodine, B12, fish oil)

I normally aromatize much higher, but I think the frequent injections are helping to keep the estrogen down. I'm making good size gains, not as much strength. My ED isn't bad, but it's not a diamond cutter either. Cardio is probably the worst part with elevated BP at 148/78, but I think that may be due to Wellbutrin as that was high before the cycle. I feel like I should decrease my AI a little, just wanted to get everyone's thoughts here as you guys know way more than I do. What would you change?

I asked the above questions in a separate post as this was off topic so please ignore. After looking online for at home test, the only one I found that looked decent was $199 and included the full male hormone test panel. The saliva tests were $249 per time from what I found which to me is crazy. I really wish they had simple estradiol test strips that I could use weekly or biweekly just to make sure I'm not crazy high or low, but so far I haven't found any that are reasonably priced.
