question from a user
I'm on 100mg test E per week split into 2 doses. Started about 8 weeks ago or so. Last blood test was a month ago and E2 was well within range. Was supposed to have another blood test around now, but it has been delayed due to unavoidable circumstances. Here's the question: Nipples are not sensitive, not itchy, and not 'puffy', however, for about a month I've noticed that they are hard/erect much more often than they were before TRT. Is this any cause for concern? I have no other symptoms associated with high E2.

In general no & there could be a few reasons for this with a few of them related to slightly higher Estrogen. However if your E was normal 4 weeks ago and although it may adjust a bit it very likely will continue to be normal assuming nothing else was added to the regimen. The time where nipples become too sensitive to deal with a shirt brushing up against them or sore is where we would start to worry. I would personally be comfortable waiting for the delayed testing.
