This was a fun exchange. A bit different from your usual posts but still interesting back and forth.

So cool seeing Thomas and Derek doing some epic TA together. Great show guys! 👍

Great to see you guys collaborating and i hope for more in the futue. Love both you guys channels

Great video. I’ve treated estrogen like a virus, my clinic started suggesting i split pill blockers in half because they came back very low. I thought with T levels at a thousand and estrogen low my libido would be insane, it wasnt.

I crashed my estrogen with AI on purpose to help clear up steroid acne and it worked very well. I have felt very tired lately

Thanks is for the video. How do you cycle off anastrozole if taking with trt?

What a great guy to have. Derek is a book of knowledge in his core competency

I love this video. Also, how can I boost my e ?

How long did you take it to notice a change? I had my blood work done. My Prolactin was high like yours. My Estrodial was super low at 9pg. My total T was 622 and free T was at 11ng. SHBG was about 45nmol. FAI was 47. So since the estrodial was low compared to my Total T. Should probably be between 20-30pg. I started taking 10mg of DHEA. To hopefully increase Estrodial. I decided to add Pregnenalone along with it. I just started it yesterday. I noticed DHEA definitely changed my mood been taking it for 3 weeks.My cardiovascular system definitely seems much better. I’m just trying to get my morning wood back 😂

So now the key question will boosting my lowish estrogen with for example flaxseed oil supplement, will this then lower my testosterone level?

TRT for 3 yrs, after my first year of blood work I completely halted my e-blocker and felt so much better. On a side note I also felt that the E-blocker gave me some hair loss...after I stopped taking it this stopped as well.

@Cookie Monster 90. Then it was 9! That's when Doc said to go EOW with E-blocker I just decided to eliminate it. Now, estrogen score stays around 45 when I eat average. When I start to go full keto and drop fat levels the estrogen score goes down around 30 as my body fat levels decrease. Just like they talk about. Getting lean affects this hormone, and if you're not getting blood work done, you will never know this. You will just feel the energy loss (how I felt) and lethargic.

My estradiol level is 12 and test is 488, would I benefit from a little aromatization? Was on my first TRT dose and the doctor recommended 1 mg tablet per week. Upon taking the anastrozole, I feel like I am extremely anxious and cannot sleep. From what I am reading 12 is actually already a low number for estrogen at this ratio. I have for months felt extremely irritable all the time prior to seeking out TRT and have had worsening anxiety. Could I benefit from once a week cypionate injections to encourage a small amount of aromatization?? I understand that a 1 mg dose is massive to start but I was just doing as the doctor prescribed. I'm beginning to wonder if some of my irritability and other symptoms were due to a low estrogen level in the first place?

Where did he talk about estrogen killing his gain?

This seems to put me in the category Plates dude says is bad, but it seems to work well (I've put on a few pounds of muscle since starting the regime whilst already being fairly muscled for my light frame (technically overweight on BMI with low fat). I actually avoided taking it all the time 'cause i thought it might suppress my natural hormones somehow. Feeling uncertain now.

OK, so I have always struggled gaining muscle no matter how hard I train and I have excess fat (I'm skinny fat). I eat really clean and have done most of my life (I'm 55 now). My Total test is 876 (natural) yet my Estradiol is

Assuming you are natural with no exogenous testosterone, the only direct way is to gain body fat. Diet wise you can also try adding small amounts of soya based foods (healthy stuff like tofu ideally), flaxseed oil or like lavender (if using oil, dilute a drop or two into a oil). Experimentally could try low dose exogenous estradiol (like less than 0.5mg) which may be enough to put it into the 'just fine' range. Ask an endo tho.

My natural ratio seems to push 40:1 total T to E2. What should I do then? Take oral E2? (I am on TRT)

How do you raise the healthy form of estrogen in men?

Unironically, try adding a little soya based stuff (like tofu), grapefruit and whatever else foods that contain mildly estrogenic compounds. Worth experimenting with.

Isn’t it also true that, a certain level of estrogen is necessary to excite androgen receptor sites? In other words, you could have super physiological levels of testosterone, but unless you have a healthy amount of estrogen you quite simply, among other things, won’t grow!

Switch to letrozole. Letrozole kick’s arimidex ass. Probably start around 2.5mg x 3 every week. Make sure one of your doses follows your testosterone by 24hrs. I started off taking it 3x week but now have been able to cut back to once a week.
