Please clarify what you were on for the lab work, your post is confusing.
It is quite uncommon for that dose of hCG to drive high E2 levels. Issue is most likely FT=46.5
If you change your T dose, anastrozole need changes too.
When you take a dose of anastrozole, it takes a week for blood levels of the drug to reach a final level. You cannot make fast changes. Labs should be done after 3 weeks of a constant dose, but after one week, you should have evidence for dose correction etc.
When you change E2 levels, your brain and body have their own timetable if reactions that adds another time delay.
When you do labs based on a steady anastrozole dose, we can calculate dose changes.
E2=48.4 suggests something abnormal, either very high T–>E2 aromatization, or poor liver clearance of E2 or both.
Please post all lab work with ranges, not just these hormones.

Evaluate your overall thyroid function by checking oral body temperatures as per the thyroid basics sticky.
