Estrodial levels and Arimidex? 4mg a week levels still high?

[NRizzo44]

I have been on TRT for a couple years now and the clinic I go to had me a 3mg of anastrazole(Arimidex) a week and my estrodial levels stayed in the 25-30 range, about 16 weeks ago I added in some compounds and started a cycle. I was running deca and primo and after blood work my estrodial levels were at 86. So the doc upped me to 4 mg a week so 1 mg eod. 6 weeks go by and by this time I’ve dropped off the deca and picked up tren. Blood work came back and estrodial levels had raised to 103. So now I’m currently on 1mg everyday. I’m not having any bad side effects or anything but I feel like it is a lot. I’ve got less than a week left on cycle before I drop back down to TRT at 200mg a week. Anyone have any insight on if this is too much Arimidex? And when should I start to drop off all the extra Arimidex once cycle ends or should I just wait for bloodwork to show me and adjust accordingly? Also, any recommendations on if anything should be ran once I drop the tren and drop back to TRT? Like Cabergoline or something of that nature?? Any insight or personal experience would be appreciated, I’m doing my best to
try to understand how my body reacts to certain things and it’s a learning experience. Thanks in advance everyone!

Make sure that the test you got was the estradiol SENSITIVE test. If your playing with Deca / Tren those will skew a normal estrogen test off the chart.
My guess is that what you've done is crashed your estrogen with WAY too much adex and have a skewed test showing high estrogen.

Yeah I was afraid of that, I will have them run it. In the meantime, I guess it would be wise to drop off the adex? If so, how much you think

^ Sensitive test. Having said that, you won't necessarily have crashed your E. Only bloodwork will tell. Some guys (like me) aromatase like crazy.

You have to use a lot of arimidex also?

Yep...1mg ED. Any less and it's puffy nips and edema. Sucks.

Yep once you added in the tren the normal ECLIA E2 assays became worthless and you can't trust em. I don't think the other compounds will have the same effect, but it never hurts to get the "sensitive" (LC/MS-MS) assays anyway since they're far more accurate and should be immune to cross reactions with other compounds.

Deca (& NPP) will do the same to your T assay, so get LC/MS-MS there as well if mixing them in.
