I am on trt from my Dr. 200mg cypionate, taking .5ml twice a week. My test is usually around 800. I’ve asked my Dr to test estrogen levels but he said im not taking a high enough dose for estrogen to be high.
Anyone seen longest yard 2? When they replace the guards steroids with estrogen? And he’s sensitive and cries at almost anything?
Well I’m kinda like that. If a movie is playing is even remotely emotional or a tear jerker, i get choked up and have to fight the urge to cry. This is embarrassing as hell to even post here, but i figure maybe someone here went through same thing and has advise.
Is that a sign my estrogen is high? Could it be anything else related to trt? I wasn’t like this before when i was blasting and cruising. Just now on regular trt.
Thanks for any feedback.
This is not based in facts at all. 1) You are on a relatively higher dose of T so it is more likely to bring high E sides because 2) T converts to E but at different rates for different people. The only way to actually know if your E is too high is to test. You being more emotional could indicate high E, but it’s difficult to quantifiably determine this.
If your doc won’t test your estrogen levels, then you can always order your own for peace of mind or proof.
Your doctor is inexperienced and doesn’t even understand genetics plays a role in aromatase activity and how dare there be genetic diversity.
A doctor that believes all men are the same with regards to responding to hormones is narrow-minded.
Yes, and likely related to the increasing testosterone. I have seen guys taking your dose, even less, come back with E2 over 100. I’ve also seen guys over 100 with zero E2 symptoms. I’ve seen guys with symptoms at 50. Does not matter, we’re talking to you and you do not feel right.
As mentioned, you need a TRT doctor. Your car needs a new transmission, but you’ve taken it to an autobody shop.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. Looks like i need to find a Dr specializing in trt
Don’t hold your breath, some have spent years and have not found one. Sex hormones aren’t taught in traditional medical schools and even if a doctor went to the appropriate medical school, clinical experience in prescribing TRT is a completely different ball game.
Finding a good TRT doctor amounts to finding an overachiever.
That’s usually where private clinics come into play.
