Why am I not very horny on test e?

This is my first cycle of 500mg per week test e, 2 pins a week. Week 4 is coming up and Have definitely noticed a decent increase in strength. But I’m just not as horny or confident as everyone says the feel on test. Everyone describes it as being an amazing feeling, I just feel normal and I’m not battling off boners or anything. I have to include I haven’t been taking my ai because I have no high e symptoms yet and my experienced friend said not to because low estrogen can also cause bad results and low libido on cycle. I obviously have to get bloods done to check but do you guys think this could be because of high estrogen or low estrogen?

If all you're taking is Test, you definitely don't have low E.

Are you taking anything else?
Is your weight up any?
If so, how much?

I’ve gone up 10lbs. I started taking ai the third week (aromasin) just in case butbthen I stopped because i found out about low estrogen being bad so I decided to only use aromasin when I begin showing serious signs like Gyno or itchy nipples. So far only test. I have bloated a bit but not a lot

It sounds like you're new to this...
You could very well have high Estrogen, but there's no way I could know for sure.

Can you get bloodwork done?
How long were you planning on running the cycle in total?
Do you have a SERM in your possession right now?

I’m new to actual gear cycles, but I’ve done sarms and ph in the past. Planning on running for 12 weeks. And Yes I’ve got nolva and clomid. I’m really not sure if it’s either high or low estrogen but I’m sure it’s one of the two. I just want to deal with it ASAP instead of having to wait for my blood results back

How could it possibly be low Estrogen?

If your only symptoms the whole cycle have been:

Not having to fight off boners, not overly confident, and not feeling amazing....

Those aren't necessarily symptoms at all. Some guys don't get those things on 500mgs of Test.
 
How much aromasin did you take when you did take it. Some people only need 12.5 mg every third day for example. If you started taking 25mg every day for a week or more that could actually tank your estrogen.

personally I find 12.5 a week is 👌 for me......responses vary massively.

but I’m with @Renew1 on this one. I just don’t think OP is responding to test in the way some of us do (high libido, alpha AF etc) but sounds like still getting the gains so I don’t see the problem.

OP - everyone responds differently bro. Test for me does virtually nothing in regard to muscle building but I feel amazing. You’ll find people on here with opposite experiences on most AAS. Some libido tanks, others through the roof etc.

As long as you aren’t getting negatives (ED, gyno etc) and are gaining lean mass then just crack on bro. Sounds fine imo

See i understand everyone responds differently, but I’m just in awe about it because I’ve done epi andro before (not epistane!) which is one of the mildest ph you can buy, and I felt alpha af! But somehow literal test isn’t doing that for me? I’m ok with it since I’m still gaining strength so it’s obviously working, I’m just a little bummed out and want to make sure it’s not something else that’s causing the lack of the“alpha” feeling normally associated with gear

1-12 500mg test, (250mg pins twice a week, Monday and Thursday)
Aromasin week 3-12 (originally stopped taking it since no high e sides but I’m taking it again now to see if I notice a difference)
Hcg week 7-12 and continuing into pct
Pct week 14-16 possibly into week 18 depending how effective the pct is the first two weeks. Nolva and clomid on hand, clomid 30 mg, nolva 12.5
5’9
180 lbs at start of cycle
Age 27
 
Id say thats fairly normal. Maybe im one of the few but i feel pretty much the same on cycle, off cycle, and even during PCT. Its like anything people exaggerate.

it’s not a surprise that epiandro (a dht) gave you that feeling. Test converts to dht via 5-alpha reductase- maybe that’s not an efficient mechanism in you personally?

I’m not the most scientific on the board by a very long shot so others may be able to advise on whether that’s a logical explanation
 
Everybody responds to drugs differently, yes, but if all things are kept equal and only one variable changes, then they should act very similar. For instance; DHT is DHT and it should make you more aggressive, more horny, etc. But maybe you might have a problem with other hormones; prolactin, progesterone, estrogen, etc. Maybe your dopamine or serotonin system isn't responding well to the exogenous test ...

I wouldn't worry about taking aromasin with 500 test. Chances are your e2 is mid to high. 40 - 80 range. At 500 mg's it's probably not below 40. My safe advice would be to use aromasin 12.5mg eod. No way this tanks your E2. Aromasin is not that strong. My less safe advice would be to use 25 mg's eod. Both 12,5 to 25 mg's eod on a 500 mg test cycle is quite typical for aromasin. IMO you can't really go that wrong. But either way, if you are doing blood work, do it either on a steady dose of aromasin or on none.

Got I’m having nostalgia of the epi andro feelings. I might just go ahead and add it in now again lol
