Taking just a DHT compound will lower Testosterone. It occupies the Androgen Receptor, so your body thinks it has enough T. You should feel all "manly" though. That's why running both Epi and 4-AD at the same time is nice - hits on all cylinders (T from the 4-AD, and DHT direct from Epi, as well as from from 5aR of T). No idea on why your E2 went up - but DHEA is directly convertible to E as well as T, so maybe from the previous Dermacrine?
