Finding right dose/ HIGH E2 or LOW

Pharma / TRT Testosterone Replacement

Gonna try and keep it simple

  • Currently taking 150 Test E a week.

  • Every 3rd day I take .2 which is = 50mg.

  • I’m 5’10 255 lbs fairly built guy, but I do have some fat on me.

  • for a while I was on twice a week, felt great, and upped my dose to 250 and then I felt like that was too much so I went back to 150mg a week, but switch to E3D.

  • my acne went crazy (chest, shoulders, back) so I switched to E3D pin to see if that would help well the acne continued for about 8 weeks until I felt like my levels were stable from switching dose / pin frequency. The acne is still here but not like before.

  • I sweat like fing crazy at the gym & I’m a blue collar worker so it’s the same at work. And as test make you more oily I figured the acne was normal.

I don’t feel sluggish, nips don’t itch, I feel strong in the gym, libido is good, I have wet dreams / morning wood and I feel ready to work work work go go go 24/7. However I’ve been super angry / on the edge while also being as calm as I have ever been (it’s fing with me) Working blue collar is a different world everyone messes with everyone, but I swear it’s like any disrespect or side remarks I’m ready to get after it and fight, but I can handle my self fine I don’t let it get to me. I use the gym to let it all out and it’s great.

I’m looking at getting bloods done in 2 weeks already schedule it.

QUESTIONS: I was looking at either lowering my dose, or even going to pinning every other day.

  • What would you guys recommend? Is the anger and acne signs of high or low E2?
    -should I go back to 2times a week?
  • could I be arromamtising too much since I have some fat in me?

Im trying to find the sweet spot for dosing / pinning and I get its a journey, but some help would be appreciated.

Mot every symptom you have is going to be caused by Testosterone or E2. That’s an unusual response regardless and especially so considering the dose.

Regarding your two questions, don’t make any protocol changes until too get bloods. You need to know where you are at while you feel like You do right now.

5.10 at 255, what is your rough body fat. higher BF in my exp. definitely causes higher conversion to e2. my median e2 went down from 60 to 50 when my BF went from 30 to 20. but even at 60 i had no issues. pinning test E EOD makes no sense due to half life TBH. excessive e2 causes anxiety for me, and this resolves when I take an AI. you could try something like 0.25 anastrazole. if within 24h or so your symptoms resolve for the most, your problems are e2 related. blood results can not be directly linked to your symptoms as this is individual.
I personally could not handle Tcyp and had to switch to daily Tprop. anger/anxiety issues resolved
