question from a user

I'm on cyp 80mg twice a week, subq. For some reason unknown to me, my E2 won't go above 15. My total test last draw was 1157 SBGH 89. Taking boron to try and lower SBGH. A bit worried about my E2 being low. Seems to affect my libido. 57yo male 6'1" 235lbs

Add a DHEA supplement and recheck again in a month. On TRT, DHEA almost exclusively converts to estrogen.
