Hey guys,
I'm curious as to what hormone is responsible for sex drive? Can having evaluated E2 boost libdio or is it all related to free test or even SHBG?
Quick background, I take 200mg test cyp subq with 6.25mg of aromasin 3x weekly. I inject on Mondays and Thursdays.
So I been noticing that my libdio isn't as high in recent weeks or closer to over a month. I can get an erection and keep it during sex no problem but my sex drive is just not that high. It isn't completely in the dumps but I don't get the urge to have sex daily anymore (yes daily)
Recently got into a new relationship and we fooled around and I had no problem getting erect but I could not finish. And being in a new relationship I tend to get a little excited and finish quickly but can keep going.
So I was remembering the first time I blasted 350mg of test for a first cycle and OMG the sex drive was insane. And I kind of miss that. And I know for sure my e2 was out of range because my acne flared up really bad where I had to stop.
One 100mg of test cyp subq, my total test was 600 ish and e2 was 38 and free test was 20 with no AI. Now I'm at 200mg with a AI.
Usually I can tell by how I feel when my e2 is elevated. Acne tends to be the main factor or I feel super emotional. Since being on 200mg with my AI protocol I have not done a blood test to see my testosterone and estrogen values.
I figured bumping my TRT to 200mg would increase my libdio but I have not noticed much difference and I been on this dose for about a month.
What should I do? Blood test? Anything specific I should be looking at? Maybe subq injections are a factor which I don't think but maybe? Or is it all e2 related?
Any help would be much appreciated?
