I’ve posted about this issue a few weeks ago just looking for other in our. So I’ve been running 250mg twice a week of test e along with arimidex .25 m/w/f. Everything great, libido and wood was good. On week 10 I had cut back to about 300mg a week. I ended up getting erectile Dysfunction issues, and mild libido but not To bad compared to the ed. I was told most likely crashed my E2 with the a-dex so I quit taking it completely . I’m now around week 14 and had taken the e2 sensitive test and it actually came back with high e2 of 59pg. It’s been 6 days since my last pin of 150mg and am still having ed issues.
I want to get off and start my pct . I have clomid and nolva but I don’t know if jumping into pct without fixing the issue will just make it worst. Should I take arimidex until pct? Or a low dose of nolva until true pct? Any pointers? I didn’t mention before, but I ended up running this cycle to help overcome deca dick. I was stupid and ran deca and dbol over a year ago because I was told by a friends dad whose been juicing for years that it would help heal my shoulder and keep me in the gym. Well that was the start of my broken dick and I wasn’t told anything about needing to run test with it nor a pct.
I know stupid and stupid for doing it in the first place, but that already happened and I was about 9 months off and still had deca-dick when I started this test cycle. I did bloods and everything came back to normal. My total test was at about 381 but the doc said it was normal. So any-who I’m just looking for some good input on what I should do now as far as the high e2 and ed going into pct thanks @physiolojik
I’m not even going to comment about the “Well no one told me to run Test/PCT” statement you made.
So you shut down your natural production of Test. Would be best for you to start with a fresh set of labs then a referral to an Endocrinologist. More than likely you in for some hCG and clomid restart. Then if that doesnt work, you are bound for TrT.
How is your blood pressure? Any flushed (red-ish) areas on the body, like chest, face? Your hematocrit is high. Consider going to give a blood donation.
DO NOT take any AI. What is your Test and Free Test compared to your E2 levels? Do you have symptoms of high E2? I had E2 of 55 and it came down on its own. Well, I divided my Test shots up and injected more frequently.
I went to the endo the other week and he told me to get off everything completely and said he does not recommend hcg, clomid , nolva or any other kind of pct.he also stated that estrogen has nothing to do with erectile function etc. he also said that being in on testosterone and having ed it’s obviously not a testosterone issue and that it’s probsbly a blood flow issue? The only recent test I got was last week “e2 sensitive” and it came back at 59pg. So on the high side and I was told I probzbly crashed it from others being I was on adex. My blood pressure was super high in the middle of my cycle when I went to the doc one day it was like 179/80 and 153/70 so I grabbed Hawthorne berry extract. Lately it’s been around 130. I was going to do more blood work after pct, but now I’m kind of worried going into my pct. do you think I should do another pin of test and grab hcg and use that the 10 days before my pct?
I am not the best to be recommending advice. I would be asking for @physioLojik He is the expert that would be best to guide you. He is a bodybuilding Endo which lends us guidance on these forums.
I would stop worrying, which can cause anxiety to rise, blood pressure to rise just a nasty cycle. I know it is nerve wrecking but staying calm is best.
