How to Raise Estrogen? Dropped Too Low with AI

Hello all.

I am typically an over responder to AI’s and after getting my blood work back, I am at 7 on the ultra sensitive. I basically dropped my e too low using anastrizole. I rarely need it but after a vacation I was a little high and felt it.

Obviously the best course of action is to be patient and wait this out as it will raise naturally but at the moment I have horrible ED. So this weekend I have a date and I’m trying to rapidly get my libido and ED problems sorted.

In an emergency could you over inject a little T or maybe more HCG to allow this to raise more rapidly or am Just stuck waiting.

I think any doctor you ask would say just wait it out as this could cause a yo-yo effect but I’m looking for a short term solution.

What ester are you using?

Unfortunately, no matter what you do, its highly unlikely you will feel much better in that short amount of time.

Crashed e2 takes weeks to feel better.

If it were me, I would postpone if possible, if not, you could try a larger injection, I wouldn’t worry about a rebound unless you keep doing it.

Inject double or triple than your actual dose, in one shot.

E follows T,
more T more E.

This is correct, anastrozole attaches to the aromatase enzyme blocking, disabling the conversion of testosterone to estrogen, more testosterone will do nothing.

You’ll find out soon enough that are no shortcuts in the world of TRT.

Yeah , but the half-life of anastrozole is only 50 hrs . There’s also a reason for different doses , the more test , the more anastrozole it takes to block conversion . So argueably , if you shoot a large t shot 4 days after last anastrozole ingestion …your estrogen should go up …no?

Try some HCG, do not do a double or triple dose. Do you know any menopausal women with some progesterone cream?

This…

To the OP… No offense but you sound like someone who is lacking in the patience Dept. Couple that with the fact that you have a girl that you obviously care enough about that you want to make sure she has a complete satisfying experience with you between the sheets…

My advice to you… Spend some time learning patience and get your protocol dialed in properly, and while you’re doing that, learn to be very good with with your tongue and fingers.

Actually if you read the original post I understand patience. I’ve been on TRT long enough to understand how it works. That being said, we all can over shoot our AI dosage. There are hundreds of posts of people who have dumpyed their E into the trash and I always wondered if there was a hack. Theoretically shouldn’t you be able to take low dose estrogen or as someone mentioned pregestrogen cream? In the end, I ended up doubling my dose of HCG and I bumped my T a little days before even knowing that it probably wouldn’t help but I ended up feeling slightly better and able to perform however the sex was not satisfying. It took a good 3 more weeks to feel normal. I Immediately lowered my T dosage to 110 a week after all this with no AI. It’s been 7 weeks since my change so need to get tested but I’m feeling better with the lower dosage. Assuming my test comes back good I’m goimg to try to stay off the AI

This was very smart. I meant no offense with the remark about patience. That was in response to your older post where you were trying to get a quick fix in preparation for your time with the lady.

Nothing happens quick when it comes to TRT, as it sounds like you have figured out. I was serious about the whole finger thing though. For those of us who have ever had to deal with the ups and downs of TRT, a great alternative plan to keep the little woman quivering is a game changer when the little soldier just refuses to salute! Lol

I thought I’d update my experiences and “quick fixes” for low Estrogen. Long story short I lowered my estrogen again. While injecting one morning the needle cap popped off because I did not twist it in tight to a prefilled syringe. It was early and without thinking I just grabbed another and injected. The problem is I think I probably injected 90% of the first dose after inspection after. Well the next 5 days went up a roller coaster of pure “Im 15 again” and my libido was off the charts. I seriously wanted to hump my furniture and everything walking for 5 days. then of course experiences symptoms of high E. I was hot, sex was weird. I’m very sensitive to AI’s so I took 1/32 or so of an AI, waited about a week and still having issues I took 1/16. I started feeling much better but after having an ED issue 2 or 3 days after feeling better I took another dose of 1:16. I should have been more paitient. I could tell I made a mistake. I had severe ED within 24 hours. Now normally I would just wait this out but I’m on vacation and with a lover. I made the tough decision and immediately injected a larger than normal dose of HCG and I doubled my dose of testosterone. I will probably yo-yo but in a pinch it has fixed me for now and in about 24 hours… I’m back at 15 again … I also took a Proviron. I know it can stop some conversion into estrogen but it’s also Can add lead in the pen. That may have been a mistake but I panicked :slight_smile: I love TRT but it’s like 9 months of joy (when your near the sweet spot) and 3 months of turmoil when my E is out of whack
