Adjusting test dose

Currently running 200mg total of test pinning twice a week. Just got my 6 week labs results back total test = 1435 free test = 335 and E2 81.

I currently have no sides at all and feel great but I’d rather get my E2 in more optimal range without running an AI. Would dropping my dose down to 160mg pinning 3 times a week make a major difference?
 
Before reducing the amount, I would pin the same amount more often (every day in fact) and retest in about 6 weeks. I bet E2 will be lower.

I’ll give that a shot. I know everybody is different but if I were to even just do 3x times a week would I see a difference?
 
Pin more often. I found a happy medium at 3x wk. I did daily and it became a chore. Managed a few months and estrogen is similar at 3x wk compared to daily but was on the high end at 2x wk

I think this is my best bet. Do you know what your E2 range was at 2x per week versus 3x per week? I’m trying to get an idea on how much it’ll come down from 81. I know this varies person to person.

I'd have to get on the computer to exact. 2x 120mg I was getting sensitivity and nearing 100. Daily I dropped significantly with no need for ai. I now do 3x wk with 100 mg primo and I'm staying in 30s where I'm happy with libido at the dose

Little different situation but more pins helped without the primo... I also usually run a little higher than most on estro
 
If your goal is real trt then I'd drop to about 150mg or 40-50mg eod, that should bring total and free test down a little but more so bring down estrogen. Daily or eod pins do keep more stable levels, but it's not gonna bring a 80 down to a 40. So I'd lower test or I'd take a small ai dose. I also personally wouldn't change my estrogen if I felt good at 80, I'd just leave it be, but that's a personal choice
