Your 3-adiol G could of gone up because of higher testosterone and higher FT3 levels.
T3 levels is very important for metabolism. I’ve done extensive research on it.
If you T4 isnt converting to T3 properly, you will have metabolic problems.
i am on hcg now 2x250 ius and up to .5 mg arimidex twice a day
even now i can only have a so so boner
i dunno what the hell is wrong with me and might do a trial of HGH if this doesn’t work out
tomorrow going to get prescription testosterone to add to it all and see if this helps somewhat
HGH works well with fibromyalgia/CFS patients according to literature I have read in my book.
Fibromyalgia/CFS patients have low HGH levels.
IGF-1 injections maybe of use as well.
That is a massive dose of arimidex (0.5 mg 2x day) did you mean twice a week? It is very easy to overdue arimidex, dropping estradiol too low, afterwich you will spend months on no arimidex waiting for your estradiol to come back - it needs to be titrated up very slowly while monitoring estradiol every three or four weeks… Any estradiol reading below 18 may mean you are putting yourself in a state of osteoporosis.
annon1, is their evidence in the literature that raising T3 raises either adiol-G or 5AR generally?

Kazman is right, start off with low arimidex dose(.25 mg every other day) and go from there…Retest E2 every 5 weeks and see where your at.
kazman, to answer your question, i’m doing some research on this matter…In the time being, read this post on Dr. Crisler board by JANS in response to Cowboybob’s tests.

He states "Speaking one amateur to another.
I would check but not be preoccupied with DHT at this point.
But it is good that you checked DHT (or 5AR) from few angles.
You are missing
Allo-tetrahydrocortisol/tetrahydrocortisol Ratio (5a-THF/THF)(dr John’s favorite)
[b]I would first observe and manipulate toward better range
BAT
E2
cortisol
T3[/b]
After above are under control, revisit DHT.
"
So essentially, this is what I’m focusing in order to get better, because my hormonal profile is normal now, however my T3 needs more attention…
