HCG Sends My E2 Over The Moon

From <50 to >200 in a month! 250 iu per day. Too much, but my boys were hurting as they shrank.

Balls are okay now. Stopping hCG and upping Exemestane. Libido was dying, but past couple days has been coming back. I hope it will come back more now.

200. Can't believe it.
 
Yes hCG does that. What about 250iu 3times per week? Every day is too much. Are you on cycle or PCT?

Sorry, didn't mention I'm middle aged and on TRT blast and cruise. I have settled on ~200 mg test cyp per week with cycles of tren on top. I'm doing my first real cycle now. In future I will be a lot more conservative about hCG use!
 
Hey bro, I have heard that AIs cant effectively reduce intra-testicular estrogen that hCG is responsible for. I may be wrong. I really dont know the answer

Thanks for getting back, though!

How do I get this under control?

You lower the dose bro. Formestane didnt control hCG estrogen no matter the dose(of formestane). When I lowered hCG at about 180iu 3times per week, I felt good again. Exemestane may be more capable than formestane. A good dose of exemestane is 12.5ED and you see how it goes. Hopefully its pharma

Ha! I'm done with hCG for now. Got a few Exemestane tabs 25 mg which I've been taking E3D.
 
Well my source is no pharma stuff but I believe its legit. If I already had high estrogen I would go for something a little more than 12mgED wich is treating me good to keep estrogen in check before it goes too high.
A few tabs wont suffice sadly and exemestane is sooo expensive :(
 
On TRT myself at 56. Why not drop HCG altogether? Yes, your testicles will shrink but who cares, right?
 
Hey KP,

I've been talking to you in my other thread. But I'm responding here for the sake of posterity.

My balls ache a lot when they change size and I'd just like to keep them fuller-looking. I'm cycling hCG for now. But my blood work recently showed e2 way down to under 50 (didn't get the ultrasensitive this time for some reason), but my e2 test before that was 206 pg/mL on the regular test and 131 on the ultrasensitive.

Estradiol 206 pg/mL <=50 pg/mL
ESTRADIOL, ULTRASENSITIVE, LC MS/MS 131 pg/mL < = 29 pg/mL

So just lowering the test e and hCG seems to be keeping things were they need to be. I have the exemestane on hand in case, but I plan to keep things on the low side with my dosing from now on. My strength is progressing fine with the lower dosing. It's my libido that stills worry me. But I think it was better before I started dosing high and having all my levels so out of whack.
 
SelfMedic,

I caught your other thread, and you mentioned that you're hyperthyroid.... I recall reading an article (Bill Roberts, maybe?) while back that high thyroid levels tend to increase E2 levels, as well.

FWIW, I'm hypothyroid, and my E2 levels are low, so there might be some credence to that theory...
