Getting ready to run EQ for the first time and I’ve been scouring the internet for as much info as possible. Got tons of great feedback here and the prevailing recommendations are 2:1 or 3:1 to start to avoid crashing E2. Most other current sources outside this forum support and agree with this. I found journal articles dating back to 1983 detailing how EQ reduces E2, so it’s not a new idea.
But I’ve run across numerous threads on other boards and Reddit from 2006-2013 and almost everyone was running higher EQ than test. People were recommending “minimum 900mg” of EQ with 4-500mg test. And not just a lone outlier, but numerous people on numerous threads. So what the hell were people doing 15-20 years ago? How did that dose/protocol catch on and what changed? Did everyone FAFO? Was everyone’s E2 just tanked? Did any of the vets here ever run it that high and what happened?
Disclaimer: I’m not wanting to run a high dose, I’m set starting 2:1 and getting bloodwork. Just curious how they got there back then?
