i benched 295 for 10 today another personal best and i had 2 really good workouts in a row. i am really impressed with this stuff. i can see how people started doing testosterone when they were younger to get big and strong. lost another 2 pounds and i am starting to watch my diet.i am hoping to lose 30 pounds by the end of the year mostly going to a high protien low carb diet.i am feeling really good about where i am going my chest, shoulders, quads and arms are noticeble bigger and my clothes that were tight on my are now baggy. i just need to start working on my midsection and focusing more on my diet.

i hope every one else here is also having good results too.

well 4 weeks ago i started to feel different. no more morning wood not many spontaneous erections and a bit tired. so i asked my doctor for a complete blood test. the blood test came back and my test level was 1008 and my estrogen was at 78. which was very high according to him.

so he recommended that i take 6 to 8 weeks off to get my levels down and to get my recepters in my body a break.so it has been 3 weeks and i am feeling pretty good. i am still lifting the same amount of weight and most importantly my erections are staring to come back. he also recommended taking a daily dose of grape extract which he said is a natural way to fight high estrogen.

i started my hrt in january so i was on for 10 months so i figured a break was a good idea. any thoughts from you guys are greatly appreciated.i know this course of action is probably pretty conservative but i figure i am just a newbie and i have a lot of time in front of me to figure things out. thanks in advance for your replies

Wierd I posted a response.....something to the effect once you are on TRT as far as I know, you dont come off...my estrogen went high for a while when my doc was trying to use supplements to control it, soon as I went back on an AI things were in check and I feel great as usual....

getting on and off I thought could be crappy with hormone swings like that...once you find a sweet spot I thought you ride it for life man....unless you can do a restart

Been on HRT 1.5 year, no break... levels around 1400 total, will stay on constantly and take AI for estro levels and hcg for the boys... doc will run mine to 2000 if i want but like the level and have supplemental test for cycling... personally think keeping a constant level is best but every doc has his own opinion? looks like they would give you a script and let you self inject, much cheaper.. but there again, i am on the implant routine for now and i like it... congrats on your recover!
