How long have you been on TRT?

No if you switch to Sub Q with a reasonable HRT dose you will find that E2 is not an issue.

Note:
I was reading on another board that Sub Q does not work as well where people have higher body fat. If you above 15% you should inject in a lean part of your leg or delt. Injection into belly fat (if not lean) will really slow absorption. There were a bunch of lab tests to validate this.

well I thought you are HCG too but guess not

If you've been on self-prescribed TRT, I presume, then you're dosing has to be extremely low. If it's say less than a ml. less than 1cc. Why take the shot?
Or are you using a small dose every day or every 2-3 days? If so, are you SQ'ing these shots. How's your health being on steroids for such a period of time? I wanted to get cortisone shots every month, but my orthopedic doctor said, "Steroids effect bone, cartilage, and tendon tissue and has a tendency to weaken them over time with prolong use. Let alone what it is doing to your heart and arteries. That is why I only want to see you every 3 months. You have some years left in you. Do you want more injections and end up walking with a cane at 70 or still able to use the treadmill at 80?"
I chose 100! LOL

Bro I've been reading (and responding to) your threads. But you keep posting different numbers. Normal range is 300 to 1100 or so. There you go.

If I let my TEST drop to 300ng/dl., I literally can't get out of bed and I'll feel like a piece shit! That's why I take a high dose of 1500mg a month and some oral tablets or capsules. Wife love it! No Viagra here buddy! LOL

Is that for fertility or just to keep the boys working?

Not for fertility. It gives you a better sense of well being. Without it, I don't feel your hormones are as balanced. I don't know it's the natural test or LH, but you feel much better long term.

Helps to keep you lean too, right?

haa weird, people have a harder time balancing their hormones on HCG since HCG increases estrogen

High doses maybe, but at 500 a week E2 is at 21. Many report feeling much better on HRT with low dose HCG. One key to E2 management is to dose very frequently rather than spike the hormones.
