Hello, ill make a brief history, im 28, about 4 years ago i started noticing decreased libido and morning woods , then slowly i started having ED, lack of motivation, etc. Things have gotten worse since January, i work out 4 times a week but my energy is still low, i want to start trt with HCG because i want kids in the future, this is a list of the labs ill do so i wanted to ask if i need any other.
FSH
LH
PROLACTIN
FREE T3
TSH
TT
FT
E2
PSA
SHGB
I would like to start with Test E+HCG+AI but finding anastrozole is hard here and aromasin is way too expensive, any help is welcome.
Can I ask why you want an AI or think you need an AI already? I was under that same mis-conception when I first started also. Even some of the guys on this forum were adamant about having the T + HcG + AI. You wont need an AI unless you are experiencing serious high E2 symptoms. There was a period of time where people were encouraged to chase a number, that is not the case. You should wait and let your body adapt, and address the symptoms or side effects. My E2 went up to a 55 and I thought I was in trouble. My ankles swelled, I was sweating profusely, mood swings. No gyno or itchy nipples. I waited it out, changed my Test shots to twice a week of .30ml per shot. I no longer have kankles and my moods have leveled out.
TLDR: Stay away from an AI unless you absolutely need it.
I dont really want to use an AI, if i can avoid it the better for me, from what i read once you do HCG your e2 most likely will rise too, are you on just test or test+hcg? and whats your dosage?
