Seems your arimidex dose is now proven to be high. You could probably try half the dose and/or move to every 3 days and see if you feel ok. Most people on this board recommend staying away from AIs if you don’t absolutely need them. As far as the prolactin, idk. I would point out your prolactin was high before you started you cycle. Do you know why?
Yeah I was thinking to half it to 0.25 EOD or would you recommend less? As far as prolactin I have no idea why it was raised and then went to over 1000! I had a MRI scan for a possible pituarty tumor but nothing found. Thats when I jumped on the caber.
Does any of this explain why I still do not get morning glories or struggle with Erections?
I think for sure your low estrogen could be harming your erection health at this moment, although I’m not sure about the prolactin. I’ve seen complaints about issues related to high prolactin, but have not seen much about low prolactin, which you now have. What is alarming to me about the prolactin is that it could be an indication of some kind of pituitary problem, and you seem to be aware of this too. I can’t say what you should do in regard to prolactin, but I feel confident enough to suggest you cut your arimidex dose in half, at the very least.
Allowing your estrogen to run higher than you are now, while you still have your prolactin issues, may not be the only key to restoring your erections. However, I know that it will only be beneficial to you overall. Another member can advise if you should stop your arimidex use altogether. I anticipate that at least a few will do just that.
I plan to do bloods frequently to get the most out of this cycle and just for educational purposes to this site and myself. I could try coming off the AI completely and maybe drasticly cut the Caber also. But a little history before starting any injections I never ever had morning glories, I could easily get erections. Now all this started you would think I would be horny all the time, But i’m not. I find it harder to masterbate and “cum” Maybe it’s in my head. I don’t know. But something isn’t working
You read that correctly. Never. But sexual desire was there, masturbating not a problem and erections easy. I had bloods taken as I thought I could have low test which I did. So I hopped on TRT. I thought to myself I do not want to be injecting for the rest of my life and thought a cycle would be better as I knew the gym and how to diet. Which is also what I did. 5 weeks down the line and here I am now
Did you try P5P before you hopped on caber? Because that is a much safer way to lower prolactin. Look into it. Your prolactin should not have been that out of whack on just testosterone. Something is wrong.
Also, holy forking shirtballs did your e2 spike. That is…not something I’d have expected. You see changes normally, but that is a dramatic jump.
Yeah, I heard about it but as it was so high I didn’t want something minimal. But now it’s way too low… My bloods seem okay to be honest nothing drasticly out of line but erections are still horrible…
It should not have come in that high from just testosterone. And it was already high to begin with. You should have a doctor look at this. It’s not normal to have high prolactin while natty. (It’s also not normal for it to jump that much on test alone, but perhaps you have an underlying condition that was exacerbated by the cycle)
I thought about this and saw many doctors and also had a MRI. Nothing had come up. But had gyno as a teen which I thought of could come into it. Also for about 2 years I had a horrible drinking habit and poor diet which didnt help.
