I posted this in the women's section, but there doesn't seem to be much traffic over there. Any thoughts would be fantastic.
My wife's pre-cycle bloods have come back, and we noticed some interesting results. She has seen a doctor for the last three or so years about her low estrogen levels, a contributing factor is her low body fat that she consistently retains. One thing her doctor never tested was her test levels. Her levels are:
Testosterone, serum-
58 ng/dl Reference range of 8-48
Estradiol-
7.6 ng/dl
Reference ranges for E2-
Follicular 12.5-166
Post menopausal <6-54.7
Girls 1-10 years 6.0-27
She hasn't had a period for years, (shortly after starting to lift. She keeps BF at ~14% or less) and roughly 1.5 years ago she started having more oily skin.
She has recently (last few days. Just now starting to kick in) started taking Anavar at 5mg/day, but we are curious how effective it will be for muscle growth with such low estrogen levels. She does have a prescription for progresterone/estrogen that she currently isn't taking do to her getting nauseated, but can start if she need to increase her estrogen levels if that will yield more results.
She plans on bumping the var up to 10mg/day after two weeks, assuming everything is going well.
Any feedback on the low E2? Should she try to increase it while on cycle?
