Looking for some guidance

I’m kind of at a loss here right now with how things are going TRT. I started TRT (underground) in June last year with 200mg/wk test cyp breaking it up in 2x injections.

My labs 8 weeks in were

Total Test: 1450
Free test: 324
E2: 81

I ran this for a few months as sides weren’t to bad and tolerable. Never implemented an AI. I feel pretty great running this. My acne was kind of getting out of hand so I just decided to drop my dose to 150mg/wk splitting it 3x.

My current labs are as follows

Total test: 750
Free test: 215
E2: 55

Sides are pretty much all eliminated except for the fact that I feel like I have terrible brain fog and vision is super disorienting almost to the point I just want to abandon this whole thing. My cholesterol also came back super low (Total cholesterol: 95, HDL 34, and LDL 48). I have read low cholesterol is terrible and can cause a big impact on brain function. So I’m not sure if it’s this causing it or my testosterone and E2 levels.

My options are keep the 150mg/wk and add an AI in, increase the dose and implement an AI or just abandon this all together.

Advice? Suggestions?

Have you checked your blood pressure and fasting glucose (not hba1c) recently?

Was thinking the same thing. I really need to start checking mine more frequently as well.
