Currently I pin 62.5mg Test E E4D. After doing some reading I’m thinking of trying out 125mg Nebido E7D instead.
The reason for this is that I suffer from gyno. Yes, gyno, even on TRT this low, I have no idea why, the endo I’ve spoken with doesn’t know why. My bloodwork and estrogen are always all in range. I’ve tried many protocols. The only conclusion that we can come to is that I’m just extremely sensitive to hormone fluctuations and that the slightest spike in estrogen causes me flare ups. It’s that bad I’m planning on getting the surgery next year.
The way to keep hormone fluctuations to a minimum would be to pin more frequently but pinning every 4 days is already a pain in the ass. I saw someone mention for really stable levels that actually pinning nebido once a week is the same as pinning test e every day or every 2 days ( I can’t remember which ). I’m also able to buy Nebido freely over the counter where I live compared with having to get Test E on a script and buy a years collection at a time when I return to my home country.
So I’m right in thinking no downsides to pinning Nebido E7D?
Honestly the gyno is a mystery. I am sensitive to it, when I was a teenager I got it through puberty but it went away on it’s own. What’s interesting is the only way I’ve found to stop it is to crush my estrogen, then it stops growing. Soon as I drop the AI, even after months and months it grows, allbeit slowly, even though my estrogen is in range and low. So I appreciate what you’re saying but it’s confusing as I assumed it was estrogen due to the AI stopping it but honestly I just don’t know.
Everything is “in range” and I feel fine otherwise. Actually something I do notice is by the time I’m due a next jab the night before my sleep always seems to be bad and I feel anxious and wake up during the night. Perhaps the dose isnt high enough by the end of the 4 days? Again, I don’t know and the two could be unrelated.
Who knew messing with your hormones would be such a confusing affair.
