is it possible to gain muscle with very low e2 level?

[SteveMobsterG]

lets say i'm on 1 gram test e and eating 4500 calories per day (1500 calories surplus) and i have zero estrogen (taking too much ai).
what happen to all those calories then? do they turn into fat?

You asked this in two kids of ways. Confused.

I am a little confused but the best answer is that you want estrogen in the normal range. It doesn't take long to get estrogen back if you crashed it so don't worry about losing gains. Just get things back to where they should be. It is all about learning how your own body responds. If you run 500mg per week test and 10mg EOD aromasin get blood work mid cycle to see where you are. That will show you how to adjust your AI dose to keep estrogen where it should be.

too low estrogen will prevent muscle gain and strength gains

it also will send libido and mood down

then i only gain fat if i crush my estrogen right?

Some estrogen is needed to sensitize the androgen receptor.

It is possible to gain muscle with low E2, but it's not optimal by any means
