"final Solution Lol!"
Okay, so I've read over all the posts and here's the final thing I need ya'll's direction on- here's the history & I need the BEST possible suggestion for ME, per the stated conditions, etc (as you guys are MUCH MORE KNOWLEDGEABLE & INTELLIGENT than ANY Doctor's I have looked to get help from!).
*** Over a year ago now, I had NEVER taken any illegal substances but I've always been in pretty good shape lifting, sports, etc the majority of my life, thus I decided to try some OTC products called "Sostanol 250" and "Trenadrol". I used them, got off and used Gaspari's "Novedex XT" as I was told this was to be sufficient, apparently this was not the case lol... Several weeks later I developed fairly good size lumps of tissue, tender to the touch under each nipple. I got tons of bloodwork, eval's (hormone panels), etc. The results were as follows (I have the paperwork still) my Testosterone being a few points shy of "normal" at 58 and the normal range is 60-110pg/ml, my Androstenedione was at 535 and normal range is 151-350pg/ml, my Estrogen believe it or not, was PERFECT! However here's where it gets interesting- my Progesterone level was quite high as the normal range is 5-95pg/ml and mine was 321. Looking back at my history however, I have never been particularly "Testosterone sensitive" as when I was around 18-20 I also used Testosterone boosting OTC products like old school BSN's "Testabolin 1-AQ", etc. with NO kind of PCT and I NEVER had a problem w/ sex drive, gyno, acne, hair loss, NOTHING! As well as this, I did my 1st ever cycle of "illegal substances lol" being EQ & Winny quite some time ago and did a real PCT of Nolvadex, now I'm not sure if I was on Arimidex at the time (as I'll mention later in this post my doc prescribed this), but either way the EQ/Winny did NOT affect my gyno. Ergo, this leads myself and others I've spoken with to believe that it wasn't the Sostanol 250 which induced my gyno, perhaps my gyno was in relation to the Trenadrol which I believe mimics Trenbolone. Perhaps that's why my progesterone was so high and hence I got gyno from that. I hope that adds some insight into my specific situation. From here my doctor prescribed Arimidex, whether that was the right call or not is a moot point now, the lumps and tenderness did seem to reduce a bit however when I stopped taking it several months back, the lumps, etc came back with fury LMAO! I've since had a mammogram, etc and I'm good to go, it's just tissue a little smaller than a walnut under each nipple.
A little personal history: I'm a Certified P.T. through The Cooper Institute, I just recently turned 26 and I eat VERY well (if I had to guess my BF% is roughly 15% or slightly more), I lift roughly 4 times a week, and am training in MMA/boxing 6-7 times a week, as well as taking 2iu HGH/day. Thus my question now remains before I call my doc and tell him I want a prescription or two, what should I take and how? should I just take Evista and see how that does? Or should I take a combination of two? Like I said before I realize you guys aren't doctors but I "also" know you are quite educated on this type of "stuff" & much more knowledgeable than myself, after I imagine all the information that has passed before your eyes on here, thus you will hopefully read this and have a nice suggestion as to how to kick this gyno's ass LOL! I'm going to start whatever it is, within the next week or two, so I look forward to hearing the best from you guys, as this is the best I have to go on & once again I can't thank you guys enough for your time & input!
OORAH!
