I've been on TRT for years but struggle to find that "sweet spot". I was prescribed 80mg every 5 days but my libido was very inconsistent and my labs would show my peak to be above normal range just to see it dive to high 300's/low 400's by the time of the trough. My estradiol was would always come back in mid to high 20's so I don't think it was that. Then I switched to the 3.5 day protocol to keep my trough from falling too much. After several weeks I felt good but my Tesosterone level was too high at 1200 being by trough and my estradiol shot up to 68 so the dr reduced it to 60mg of Cyp every 3.5 days. This has been my new dose for three weeks now and my libido sucks again. I have to go back for blood work in another 3 weeks but my questions are. Isn't the 3.5 day protocol supposed to keep estrogen in check? And if so, does it usually spike with the testosterone level after an adjustment? Prolactin, SBGH, and free test are also within desirable ranges. I'm hypothyroid and take medicine for that also. And unfortunately my low T was initially steroid induced. Thanks for any suggestions.
