Help, Trt blast, crashed estrogen and need advice

First off hello all! Long time lurker first time posting. So at the end of September i decided to pull the trigger on trt. Despite having great natty results blood work wise for a 30year old male(total T:831 free T:176 and estradiol 57) my trt Dr explained that even though my levels are high they may actually be low for my personal baseline and all the symptoms i described lead to low T. I was prescribed 200mg/ml test cyp, .50 ml of 6000iu HCG mixed with 6 ml of water (dont exactly know the math on that) divided into 2 doses twice a week along with .5mg or arimidex twice a week on injection days Weds and Sun. Weeks 1-2 nothing changed, weeks 3-4 i noticed substantial strength gains and massive pumps but still low energy, lethargic, low libido etc. By week 6, life changed! I felt like a new man, strength and size were rapidly increasing, gained almost 15lbs and my bench was up 100lbs, much better mentality and sense of well being, motivation through the roof, and more libido than ive ever had and could perform amazingly in the bedroom multiple times a day and felt great! I decided to take it to the next level and hire a coach. We trained hard to complete failure 4-5 times a week, for 2-3 weeks and I was growing and feeling great all around. I mentioned to him i was paying an arm and a leg from “the nations source for trt” :roll_eyes: and he said i have a great contact and he makes great gear for 1/3 of the price. He ended up providing me with sus 250, and primo. I started taking 400mg of sus 250 and 200mg primo, along with .3ml of HCG a week pinning eod and taking 1 mg of arimidex every time i pinned. I had no clue what i was doing. Needless to say by week 3 on blast i felt miserable. Depressed, couldnt even get a solid woody, and could never finish, no libido whatsoever and an anxious mess, i ran it for 5 weeks. I was still getting stronger so i assumed this was normal on blast. Needless to say im pretty sure i crashed my estrogen to rock bottom. I stopped that cycle and recently switched back to test cyp at 300mg a week, and primo at 150mg a week pinning twice along with .5ml of hcg, and 80mcg of Clen daily about a week ago hoping to cut bf and feel better all around. Im considering dropping primo and not using an Ai until i lean out more. Currently 240 6’ and about 22% bf. Does that sound like a good way to get back on track? Or should i still run primo as an ai at 2:1 for 4-6 weeks and let everything stabilize out? Please, any and all help is much appreciated, im new to this and it is very taboo for some reason around these parts so i don’t have many sources to talk to. Thanks!

Why don’t you just do what made you feel good instead of fucking with what worked?

This can essentially be like taking two forms of estrogen control. And doing all this without blood work and “guessing” isn’t very smart. It’s so easy to run labs these days.

I find it kinda interesting how many guys use TRT as an excuse to get into steroids. It’s the weed of the hormone market.

Thanks for the input! I had a full lab done prior to my trt being prescribed. I plan on getting blood labs asap but i want to give it a few weeks to let everything stabilize so i can have a decent baseline of my cycle. if it works ill probably repeat it. Ive made a-lot of changes rather quickly and im worried id be chasing rapidly changing numbers if i do bloods right now. I plan on 4 weeks consistently same schedule and then have labs and see where im at. I agree i should have done them more but im still learning and this was part of my curve. Also its almost 200$ for labs through my trt clinic, Nd i dont want to spend that every week at this time, is there a trusted more affordable place to get bloods done? Either locally or online?If so plz dm me! Thanks again for the input
