Blood Results at 8 weeks in

[Shock6050]

Results look good to me. Surprised my E2 was fairly low, though I have had no sides, and haven’t used an AI, but have Nolva/Adex on hand if needed. This is with GC 500 mg Test C, GC 700 mg EQ. LH is very low but of course expected. Thoughts or comments?

Lh can be below “1”. I just looked it up and a .07 is with in the range.

You already got kids I believe?

 

[NeuroRN]

If you’re on cycle you LH will be low. Your body is Saying test is high we don’t need to stimulate production.

 

[Poppy]

I just read that! From pituitary gland…right?

I thought estrogen should be 50 to 70ish. That’s what my TRT doc said a while back. Why would it be so low if @Shock6050 is not using an AI? Shocks, are you using a supplement of some sort to keep it down?

 

[PeteGrimkowsky]

EQ is known to act as an aromatase inhibitor; partly why some people experience a lot of anxiety while running it. Even while running high doses of Testosterone it will crash E2 levels.

 

[Shock6050]

Lol yes…5! I have been snipped too.

 

[Rusty]

Good to know. Thanks for the info brother!

 

[PeteGrimkowsky]

Np bro! Masteron is similar to EQ in that regard too!

 

[Rusty]

5 kids eh! Me too. I don’t need anymore lol.

 

[Shock6050]

Just a multivitamin and krill fish oil. I do take klonopin occasionally, but have almost completely tapered off of it should that also be a factor. Oh and milk thistle for liver support but don’t think that would affect estrogen.

 

[NeuroRN]

I’ve never heard this about EQ. interesting.

 

[Rusty]

I honestly don’t know much about Klonopin except I think it can cause miscarriages so it may have something to do with female hormones. But honestly I have no idea.

 

[Rusty]

Have you noticed a change in your mood or motivation?

 

[NeuroRN]

Klonopin is a benzo. Shouldnt really affect hormones… but there’s always something new coming out about every drug.

 

[NeuroRN]

Would you mind pointing me in the direction on some literature on this?

 

[NeuroRN]

Some tests are run differently and yield different ranges.

 

[Shock6050]

Not really…motivation hasn’t been a problem at all and mood has been good, which I mainly attribute it to all the added benefits of hitting the gym hard, increasing strength and decreasing BF. One thing that may be attributed to the low estrogen is libido isn’t as high as it has been in the past when I ran test at a higher dose than EQ, but it isn’t causing any issues in the bedroom department…I just don’t get as many random hard ons or constantly thinking about getting some action. No failures or anything like DECA dick.

 

[Rusty]

That just makes thing more confusing.

 

[Rusty]

That’s good. My estrogen has a huge affect on my mood and motivation and definitely bedroom. My sweet spot for my estrogen seems to be around 60. My bf is on the high side too. Somewhere between 17 and 19 I’m assuming based on past experiences. That seems to make a huge difference on how our body’s respond to hormones from what I’ve been reading
