question from a user
On daily cypionate and HCG but estrogen is high. Tried examestane and anastrazole which brings down to normal levels but I feel hollow sometimes and abnormal. Off the AI I feel fine and calm, with a clear head. Is it okay to stay off the AI and live with high estrogen or should I continue the anastrazole? I have ordered some DIM to see if that works as its a natural supplement. I haven’t spoken to my doctor yet but I will do soon

It sounds like the goal is to maintain treatment and remove the need for AIs. With that in mind, you could consider reducing your HCG dose unless you're trying to have a child right now, as it can add Estrogen in people sensitive to it & it doesn't add much to therapy overall. Breaking the doses up like you're doing is good, in addition to that switching to subcutaneous would be better if you're not already as it reduces T spikes with slower uptake.

That is indeed a very high dose of anastrozole. So, a few thoughts about your protocol: Clomid triggers natural production of LH, whereas hCG is an LH analog. Both of these medicines compete for the s... See Full Answer
