question from a user
I’ve been on 150 for like 2 years. I just got back in the gym so I figured I would turn it up a little to give me a little boost to get back where I was. I’m pretty much at the end of the blast anyway. But I would just like to me smooth for the holidays. I did have an AI I didn’t take in a while I may still have a few. I will have to order some. So do u think it will be ok to just suddenly drop back to 150 a week? I just don’t want to feel a crash in energy or strength.

It's very likely at 300mg you're oversaturated anyways, not fully able to use all of that Testosterone & more is just around to aromatase into Estrogen. At 300mg a week you will absolutely need at least some AI. Not medical advice, but 0.5mg to 1mg on the day of your injections (twice a week) would be a great place to start for someone similar in your situation. It now very much sounds like that was the issue.
You will probably feel some kind of reduction in strength and energy, but remember what I said above about having more than you can use anyways. If it's causing such effects even starting by dropping down to 200mg would be a good idea. Ideally going back to 150mg, letting things stable out a bit, then adjusting up 10-20mg a time up to a max of about 180mg-200mg and watching for similar Estrogen side effects then dropping back to the last dose would be a good long term idea. You have too many variables right now, they need to be controlled a bit more to know what works and what doesn't. Note, at those lower levels an AI could be 0-1mg a week, or 0-0.5mg each injection.
