Ok.. I have been getting my e2 checked very regular as the lab is close and its 40 dollars.. Takes away any worries and I can make adjustments.. I also check my PSA as my dad died of prostate cancer and I occasionally get " swelling" or pressure in that region..
In regards to E2 test I always take 6 mgs of aromasin ( tues thurs Sunday) and have the test done on a Friday or weds.. I run 25 mgs of test a day and wait about 16 hours after last shot.. I also take DIM at 200 mgs a day.. This has been constant for many months..
45 days ago my estro was at 27 ( range 7.6 to 42.6) .. Felt good.. Morning wood like I was 18 again.. Good sex drive..
Last test was last weds and my E2 is now 15.3.. The last two weeks my already bad shoulders are aweful.. Hard time sleeping.. Back is very stiff .. No morning wood the last week at all.. Sex drive is ok but has to be initiated..
I truly believe it's just the build up of AROMASIN.. This has happened before to me ( no blood work to prove it) when even taking the lowest amount of aromasin.. So in other words Id like to increase my estro by a bit and get around 30..
Now to my PSA.. THIS ACTUALLY SHOCKED ME.. I always feel pressure and have a bit of urine hesitation when I piss.. Been like that for years.. Had a finger exam recently and dr said it felt fine.. Said he feels the pressure is cause from me constantly having sex lol.. My wife and I have sex at least 4 times a week still and he says it's going to feel like that with constant " use".. But I am still happy and relieved to see it down .. Last year I had a 1.4.. This time ( no sex for 36 hours before test) it was a 0.6 ( range 0.0 to 4.0) .. So I am relieved .. Will test again in 4 to 6 months.. I truly believe DIM and curcumin have help my PSA numbers greatly..
So let's here opinions.. Here is what I'm thinking estro wise...
1) drop the aromasin and just increase DIM 300 mgs and use that as my primary anti e and re test in 30 days..
2) just take aromasin twice a week ( Monday 6 mgs thurs 6 mgs) and keep DIM at 200 mgs
3) keep Dim at 200 mgs and go to arimidex as its not as harsh on estro.. .
.5 mgs mon thurs and let numbers gradually increase.. ( I don't want to take more than that because the last time I took arimidex it tanked my hdl big time .. Aromasin did not do that and all variables were the same) ..
So ok class.. What Ya thinking
