Test C TRT ?'s

[Crossjm13]

My doc put me on TRT, 200mg every two weeks, about six weeks ago. For about the last two weeks I have been super bloated, to the point I'm contemplating not even continuing to pin it. I don't keep track of my weight because it's never really been an issue, but I feel, and look, like I've gained 20lbs. My diet is not bad and hasn't changed since I started TRT.
My question is, is this due to estrogen levels being way too high? If I start using an AI (Anastrozole), will it get rid of these sides? If so, at what dose?
Thanks in advance.

Your doc didn't rx anything to control estrogen? You should definitely have some sort of AI. It could be caused by estrogen. Do you self inject?

 

[Crossjm13]

No, no script to control estrogen.
Yes, I self inject.

I'd bet the farm your estrogen is the problem. And your TRT dose should be 200 EVERY week not every other. Another clueless doctor.

yes some people need an ai on trt.Me myself,im lucky, i just use proviron and im ok.I would look into doing atleast weekly injections, every 2 weeks isnt good enought for stable levels.

Agree. 100mg each week is better than 200mg every two weeks.

I would do bloodwork to check estrogen and test levels. It amazes me how some docs just do whatever for TRT and so many really have no clue.

Many of them are clueless, no doubt about it.Nobody should even shot less then every week on trt, i prefer 2x a week split
