Microdosing TRT vs 2x a week

Question about microdosing daily vs 2x a week for test cyp.

Current blood test showed 1100 total test and 70 E2. I believe my numbers have been close to this for the last 2 annual blood tests through my TRT dr. The 70 makes me nervous, but from what I’ve read here and other places, my ratio is ok. My TRT dr prescribed arimidex (25 2x a week) but I’ve read that microdosing can help lower E2. If the total weekly dose of test is the same (190/wk), will microdosing change the free test level?

I don’t have any serious high E symptoms, but I have noticed I’m more likely to get hit in the feels, and I feel like I’m right on the brink of some sexual performance side effects. Thanks for any thoughts.

I think if you inject daily you would want prop if your looking for a bit lower estrogen. I don’t think with cyp it will make any difference since it’s a longer ester.
Only way to see if it works for you is to try it. We all metabolize differently.
Other option is to try the arimidex at half the suggested dose and see where you land.
Your estrogen is not that high considering where your test is at. Mine is consistently higher than yours and I have no issues.

You mean .25mg twice a week? I think that’s still too much. I get a .125mg tab compounded and split it for half with each injection. My E2 is around 25-30 with TT around 1000. I may even drop it for awhile.

Your estradiol is high because you’re on too much T.

Your doctor prescribes this much?
