Can one of you guys help?
Week 1:500mg test e
Week 2:1g test e (12.5mg aroma eod)
Week 3: 500mg test e (25mg aroma eod)
Thursday in week 3 and I feel lethargic and cannot get a boner. I didn’t even have morning wood. Sex drive is less than or at normal. I am assuming that I have too much estrogen. How high do I jack up the aromasin dose and how long until I can get back on track? Because I feel like shit
I’m being told now that I might have low e, here’s the logic:
-“You’ve only been injecting for 3 weeks, it hasn’t had time to reach peak levels. You started taking an AI when you hardly even got started.”
-“Seems like you’re taking too much asin considering you’re only 3 weeks in. 12.5 was more than sufficient. Stop taking the asin and assess how you feel. If it’s a low estrogen issue, it’ll fix itself in no time.”
So basically I’ve been nuking my estrogen before most of the testosterone has converted because I’m using a long ester. I do not have any gyno symptoms. Would you guys agree with that assessment?
If you just get some bloodwork done you’ll know for sure.
It’s going to take me a week to get in. What do I do in the meantime…? Drop it or up it? Again, the sides I’m having are:
Dead dick, no morning wood (but it is possible to get it up, it just doesn’t stay that way)
Irritability
Lethargy
Low to normal sex drive
sounds like low E to me, halve your asin dose
Alright, I’ll cut it low and post again when my bloods get in. Thanks for the help.
Why did you go from 500mg, to 1000mg, back to 500mg?
I thought “better late than never to frontload and put the gains on the fast track”. I guess that was stupid, especially because I don’t know the difference in feeling of low and high e. Trial and error though I guess. I feel like a stupid jerk.
Is this your first cycle? How old are you?
Third, second with test e. I’m 23. I’m aware I could come out of this one with a permanently broken dong. That’s what I get for messing up due to impatience.

VERY unlikely you’ll have a broken dong. Really very unlikely indeed.
If it’s low E you’ll be cool in a week or two.
Relax! Honestly, it’s not that big a deal.
Yeah, hopefully all goes well. I always like to assume the worst though. If I have a question with my bloods I’ll be sure to post it here. Thanks for the help as always guys
I’ve never front loaded test in my life, it’s completely unnecessary.
I would have waited on the aromasin as well if you didn’t have bloods to show high E2 or the experience to know you’re experiencing estro sides. Not everyone needs adex or aromasin when running a cycle, and taking it “just in case” is a horrible idea.

Lol. Your Dong isn’t permanently broken. You’ll literslly bounce vack once you get your hormones properly in balance
That being said…tough it out! DON’T adjust your AI until after you get your bloods done. If you panic and halve your AI then get bloodwork you’ll have an unstable baseline reading
Just to bump this really quick…
What should my test be at to know that my gear is legit ? Again, I’ve been taking the long ester test e for three weeks . The appointment is Tuesday, and the last time I will have pinned will be Sunday. In total, I’ve pinned 2.1g of test over 3 weeks, (that Tuesday blood test being in the middle of week 4). I don’t even feel anything yet, but I’m of course suspecting that to be related to the estrogen. At the end of week 2 I was feeling a bit more energized before the crash.
I personally don’t “feel” anything from test. I just know from the increased strength and pumps that it’s working. I know some people talk about a feeling of euphoria but I really don’t ever notice anything like that.
You’ll know if your test is legit because you’ll be way above the physiological range!
I see. Now that you mention it I have been noticing some really crazy pumps, like my muscles are tight as hell and ready to bust out of my skin, (which never happened before) but my recovery is still normal. The pumps only happen in the gym. Also I can’t say I’ve noticed the body changing effects yet but it might still be early. I don’t like long esters yet. Sex drive isn’t “stick it in every hole I can find” crazy but again probably estrogen related. I guess I’ll have to wait and post the results to see if it’s bunk/underdosed/good/etc. thank you.
You’re overthinking it mate, youll just start having really good workouts with good pumps, then after a month or so you’ll think “hmm, I reckon I’ll weigh myself” and then all of a sudden you’re up 10lbs!
The really cool thing is when someone who’s not seen you for a couple of months bumps into you in the street and they’re like “holy shit look at you!” That’s loads of fun. Other people’ll notice the difference in you more than you will. It’s always the way.
Anyway, stop worrying about the E thing, it’s easy enough to fix. You’ve still got lots of time on cycle to grow like fuck and feel awesome.
