Thread: Bloods after 6 weeks clomid use - high E2

Hi


6 weeks ago after getting the first results below, i started using clomid 25mg EOD to increase test levels

Testo : 401 ng/dl
FSH 165 mIU/dl that's very low even on the local range, which shows 127 to 1926
LH 298 mIU/dl
PRL 10.89 ng/dl
E2 2700 pg/dl

Well total testosterone increased 50% but e2 went up 85%, and are now slightly above range. Prolactin levels are also near the top of the range, but they were slightly high to begin with. New numbers are below :

testo : 604ng/dl
FSH 346 mIU/dl
LH 358 mIU/dl
PRL 12.77 ng/dl range 2.64-13.13
E2 5000 pg/dl range 1100-4400

I'm afraid of high E2, like most I suppose, don't want to deal with mood swings and already had surgery for gyno, would apreciate not to go through that again.
While test and E2 are supposed to go up during Clomid therapy ( as a TRT alternative), ideally the ratio TEST/E2 should go up, which is not the case here, so it doesn't look very good.

Can some of you bros chime up with some related input ? Test levels are not yet where i'd like them, was considering adding HCG to clomid but than sure need to add an AI then. Will probably one day move to test injections but not in a rush to shut off my HPTA, and I'm afraid i will have to deal with possibly bigger e2 problem.

Also what would be the first step after those tests ? Getting AI or stopping clomid use, I don't want to add too many medicines for only modest benefits.

besides i'm taking 4 IU HGh daily and plan on going on with those, got TSH levels well within range, will post them in a seprate thread or later on, a bit in the rush now.

Thanks in advance for all input !


Update on May 12, new blood test results after 5 weeks of HCG@360IU eod , 3 of which without adex, I got a blood test around 6 hours after pinning HCG. The results came as below:


Test 573 ng/dl
E2 42 pg/ml
Prolactin 12.33 ng/ml
FSH 0.16 mIU/ml
Lh 0.21 mIU/ml



update on September 20th, pretty positive except for HDL/LDL levels... Upon returning from holidays got back on HGH and added clomid 25mg eod, HCG 360to 400iu eod as well as exemastane 12.5mg e3d. Just got blood test results, pretty good when it comes to test levels, much better than when using clomid or HCG separately :

Test 863 ng/dl
E2 43 pg/ml
Prolactin 10.05 ng/ml
FSH 1.25 mIU/ml
Lh 1.41 mIU/ml

HDL 30.50mg/dl
LDL 154.05mg/dl
