I have been under taking anastrozole with my doc since last summer. He had me on half a pill EOD. I took 1/4 of a pill 3X week. My E was 96 as a high number taking nothing. It was around 50 on my protocol. The dr wanted me down to 25, because he was concerned with me bloating. I told him that I’m not holding water and I think the HCG is keeping my E up and that it also is keeping my T over range. I stopped the hcg for two week prior to recent lab. The dr wanted me taking a full anastrozole EOD. F’that! I took a fourth each day for 2 weeks. My labs came back with E at 14.3 range 8-35. T 882 range 264-916. The dr didn’t believe the HCG would bump up the T score.
With my E so low, my libido was gone! I read low libido is a symptom. I had very low energy as well.
Now that I have the labs out the way and some ammo for a conversation, I can adjust and move forward.
