Blood work issue

[klausisbad]

Current stats:
5-11 165 8%bf this was 5th cycle
Ive always had a tough time keeping my e2 in check, so during this cycle and reading these forums i switched from arimidex to aromisin. I still cant seem to gauge this shit correctly, and at this point I should have it figured out, so some advice/recomendations would be great. First few weeks, libido and erection quality through the roof, then around week 4 its non existant. I stopped taking the AI for about 2 weeks and i definitely noticed high estro sides and hit a 1mg arimidex, felt that kill the e2, and once i started feeling decent again, got the blood work done. Im assuming around the 20 range is where my body wants to be. i went with 12.5 aromosin every 3rd day after that. i felt good for only about a week before the same shit. I am only on test cyp at 500 mg a week now. I know everyone is different but what do you pros think would be good for me to try from here on out? Also my FSH and LH are in the tank now too, could that be causing it? Thanks guys!

where did you get your arom from? you may wanna back that 500 mg down to 400 and see how that does you. what else are you running with this

I was running EQ at 500 but Ive read that causing libido issues in and of itself, so i dropped it. I also did 4 weeks of tren ace at 100mg first 2 weeks, and 200 second 2 weeks. low dose because i never used it before. Handled it fine aside from the lipids being shot like it causes. But again even without those, this has been a re-occuring issue on just test. Arom is from Geneza. Naps. (i know i know) lol

oooo naps no bueno. but how long have you been on cycle total and what weeks did you stop eq that is a lot of shit you were on for a cycle how many cycles have you done before? please don't say this is your first cycle with all of those compounds. i don't think you got good arom man i would order sarmsx liquid that shit is fo real i use 7.5 ed and seems to have me in check at all times and i have had an issue in the past with my e2 at 54. i crashed my shit within 3 days with the liquiarom just to see what it felt like that shit is stwong

Haha no man, 5th cycle. EQ i tried on my 4th and loved it, but didnt know about the libido issues it can cause. I know you can run that high and for long duration with minimal sides. The tren was only for 4 weeks and just to try it. Thats why I never went high dose. I am on week 11 now, debating on going for a cruise before bulk, or doing a major pct. I had a bad pct using liquid products before and have been avoiding them since. My major issue now is I cannot for the life of me tell if its high or low.

 

[klausisbad]

Exactly what I figured. Just have to keep the tests up. lol. I dont seem to be gyno prone, so I get no nip sensitvity or anything like that, which makes it even harder for me to tell whether its high or low. Ill stick with e3rd day 12.5 arom for next week, then get another test.

LH and FSH are always going to be tanked when on cycle. That's just the way things go. Controlling Estrogen is going to be completely different for everyone so the only way for you to dial it in is to stick with a dose, get bloodwork to see where your levels are, and adjust as necessary. Going based on "feel" is tough, numbers on the other hand don't lie. It's sounds like a lot of what you're doing, raising/lowering doses, changing compounds, etc, you are basing it primarily on how you feel and estimating. While of course you want to "feel good" on cycle, instead of guessing, just keep things consistent and if something starts feeling off, before switching compounds or raising/lowering doses, go get bloodwork done. This will tell you for sure whats going on and give you the chance to address the problem instead of jumping back and forth leaving you unsure like you are now. Generally, 20-30 is good for estrogen. Some guys like it slightly higher like in the mid-30s. Think of this as trial and error man. Stick with a dose, asses how you feel, and go get bloodwork to confirm. If the levels are too low or too high, adjust your dosing slightly. Then stick with that for another couple weeks and get bloodwork done again to reassess. Simple.

Yeah for sure. This was first cycle Ive switched or dropped anything. I always maintain consistancy. My wallet just doesnt like all the blood tests lol. But that is part of the game we choose to play, and rather than the guessing on feeling, which I obviously cannot do, its time for more tests. Thanks guys.

Ya it sucks spending the money on bloods but their value is priceless towards your health. You go through privatemdlabs, right? With the monthly coupons, it's only like $56 bucks to get your bloods done and you get emailed your results in a few days after giving.
