Great video. I’ve treated estrogen like a virus, my clinic started suggesting i split pill blockers in half because they came back very low. I thought with T levels at a thousand and estrogen low my libido would be insane, it wasnt.

My apologies if it’s been covered in a video I haven’t seen yet but are you on trt? I’ve not heard your age yet either, I’m guessing you’ve said it some of your videos. Thanks

[@jpstearns7419]

I crashed my estrogen with AI on purpose to help clear up steroid acne and it worked very well. I have felt very tired lately

[@natel272]

How long did you take it to notice a change? I had my blood work done. My Prolactin was high like yours. My Estrodial was super low at 9pg. My total T was 622 and free T was at 11ng. SHBG was about 45nmol. FAI was 47. So since the estrodial was low compared to my Total T. Should probably be between 20-30pg. I started taking 10mg of DHEA. To hopefully increase Estrodial. I decided to add Pregnenalone along with it. I just started it yesterday. I noticed DHEA definitely changed my mood been taking it for 3 weeks.My cardiovascular system definitely seems much better. I’m just trying to get my morning wood back 😂

[@deltabravo6613]

You’re levels are VERY SIMILAR to mine, I’m 30. Has DHEA helped?

[@natel272]

@deltabravo6613 yes. I started out with 10mg but then kept increasing. I'm currently doing 50mg in the morning and at night. I haven't had my blood work done yet. I plan on doing it after this last month of DHEA

[@deltabravo6613]

@@natel272 it’s helped with sexual health also??

[@natel272]

@deltabravo6613 Yes, but I'm still not back to 100%. So I'm gonna continue because I don't think my estrodial levels are back to being balanced yet.

[@olijfcadiz4231]

So now the key question will boosting my lowish estrogen with for example flaxseed oil supplement, will this then lower my testosterone level?

Does Ashwagandha take away estrogen? Or balances it?

[@sg255010]

TRT for 3 yrs, after my first year of blood work I completely halted my e-blocker and felt so much better. On a side note I also felt that the E-blocker gave me some hair loss...after I stopped taking it this stopped as well.

[@jsp07411]

We’re u taking dim or anything over counter ?

[@sg255010]

[@inverted8028]

Why were they giving you a eblocker

[@sg255010]

@Inverted I assume it's just standard protocol... like he says in the video body is trying to stay in homeostasis so if yiur putting in exogenous T then E will rise as well. What you need to remember is we are all different unfortunately TRT is still very new to men. So trial and error is unfortunately part of hormone replacement

[@sg255010]

@Cookie Monster 90. Then it was 9! That's when Doc said to go EOW with E-blocker I just decided to eliminate it. Now, estrogen score stays around 45 when I eat average. When I start to go full keto and drop fat levels the estrogen score goes down around 30 as my body fat levels decrease. Just like they talk about. Getting lean affects this hormone, and if you're not getting blood work done, you will never know this. You will just feel the energy loss (how I felt) and lethargic.

[@BizzyIzzy87]

My natural ratio seems to push 40:1 total T to E2. What should I do then? Take oral E2? (I am on TRT)

[@soaringeagle5227]

Derek is the man 💪

[@roblincoln10]

My estradiol level is 12 and test is 488, would I benefit from a little aromatization? Was on my first TRT dose and the doctor recommended 1 mg tablet per week. Upon taking the anastrozole, I feel like I am extremely anxious and cannot sleep. From what I am reading 12 is actually already a low number for estrogen at this ratio. I have for months felt extremely irritable all the time prior to seeking out TRT and have had worsening anxiety. Could I benefit from once a week cypionate injections to encourage a small amount of aromatization?? I understand that a 1 mg dose is massive to start but I was just doing as the doctor prescribed. I'm beginning to wonder if some of my irritability and other symptoms were due to a low estrogen level in the first place?

[@billiepunk321]

Of course you would benefit from a little aromatization. Just get a blood test while on trt/hrt cycle. Hopefully your doc approve of this. I would do it on the side and maybe pay it out of pocket

[@luislol3995]

Bro fucking hell, get on test

[@redberries8039]

i'm on a feast/fast regime over 5 days. With 2 days eating as much as i can after training, then low calorie ie fast. I take DHEA over the feast phase - then none. This seems to put me in the category Plates dude says is bad, but it seems to work well (I've put on a few pounds of muscle since starting the regime whilst already being fairly muscled for my light frame (technically overweight on BMI with low fat). I actually avoided taking it all the time 'cause i thought it might suppress my natural hormones somehow. Feeling uncertain now.

I'm 58. T is on the low side E is on the high side. Workouts are good, I'm building muscle. Libido could be better but I feel happier then usual. Are there down sides for high E especially as we age?

[@Digitalis-Nervosa]

Assuming you are natural with no exogenous testosterone, the only direct way is to gain body fat. Diet wise you can also try adding small amounts of soya based foods (healthy stuff like tofu ideally), flaxseed oil or like lavender (if using oil, dilute a drop or two into a oil). Experimentally could try low dose exogenous estradiol (like less than 0.5mg) which may be enough to put it into the 'just fine' range. Ask an endo tho.

[@hanalalhan]

Where did he talk about estrogen killing his gain?

[@Roozy_Persepolis]

If I am getting ny Testisterine be checked in a bloodwork, should I check my Estrogen too?

[@crockettstheme7560]

Yes. Testosterone (free and total), Estradiol, Luteinizing hormone (LH), Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH), and SHBG at minimum. Then DHEA, Pregnenolone, Prolatin, DHT, and Cortisol also if possible.

[@TheOtherTruth]

Yes.. most testosterone tests I've seen include estradiol testing

[@rajd7704]

[@FreelancerAlpha1-1]

Just got my test results back. I’m a 26 year old male at 18% body fat. Testosterone is 650 but estrogen is 47. I’m not lean and my test is fine, so no idea why my estrogen is so low.

[@roblincoln10]

Mine is super low naturally too. I was prescribed a whooping 1mg of anastrozole and it absolutely wrecked me after just ONE PILL!! STAY away from AI 's unless absolutely necessary!!!! My t was 488 with only 12.7 e2!! That was before the anastrozole!!

[@bladekhaira]

47 is not low

[@WereAllThatBored]

47 is like 10 points over the high end on the reference range. Your free T is what really matters, so your T may not be fine if your free T is very low.

[@Francisco-eb7vx]

Your labs is ok, probably no need for TRT, Just adjustments on lifestyle, dont look for numbers, look to your symptons.

How do you raise the healthy form of estrogen in men?

[@Digitalis-Nervosa]

Unironically, try adding a little soya based stuff (like tofu), grapefruit and whatever else foods that contain mildly estrogenic compounds. Worth experimenting with.

[@ImTheBlade65]

Isn’t it also true that, a certain level of estrogen is necessary to excite androgen receptor sites? In other words, you could have super physiological levels of testosterone, but unless you have a healthy amount of estrogen you quite simply, among other things, won’t grow!

[@Boyeaton1]

OK, so I have always struggled gaining muscle no matter how hard I train and I have excess fat (I'm skinny fat). I eat really clean and have done most of my life (I'm 55 now). My Total test is 876 (natural) yet my Estradiol is

Switch to letrozole. Letrozole kick’s arimidex ass. Probably start around 2.5mg x 3 every week. Make sure one of your doses follows your testosterone by 24hrs. I started off taking it 3x week but now have been able to cut back to once a week.
