SSRI’s generally work well at first for me but eventually they always end up giving me ED issues and they do promote elevated prolactin. If you read the fine print on just about any SSRI, it will list hyperprolactinemia as one of the side effects. |

So to clarify you are having low/no sex drive and difficult getting/maintaining an erection.
You could try upping your dose take some hcg and maybe a bit of proviron. You could throw in some tren. It works wonders. Just ask Darkness. His runs with tren are glorious! |

I'd still like to stay as healthy as possible so not sure tren in the mix is the answer. I have started taking hcg again though. I'm concerned with taking too much test and personally think 160 per week as I'm on now is high, but considering I'm only testing at 500 I'll probably up it to 200 a week and see how that goes. I forsee estro issues tho since I'm already on the higher end. I think I'm going to try arimidex as I know I'm sensitive to estrogen, see how that goes for 4 weeks. If I'm still being effected I'll up the t dose. Also not sure if this adds to the clues, but this seems to come and go one week I'll be fine a few days then just as quickly I'll have ed issues the next 2 weeks . no ryme or reason and no change in Protocol.

If you do 50mg eod you would be around 175mg per week. Not a big difference but, you never know. |

It is high to me given I'm already on the high end of estrogen and rbc. I also have high DHT which makes me nervous as I don't want to be losing hair. I don't compete anymore or cycle and want to maintain healthy safe numbers as a priority. With that said, my dht is 125 with 65 being the normal high range. Any ideas on how to lower this? I'm nervous with bumping my test up with such high dht numbers. |

Saw palmetto works for some people. I’m sure there are guys on here that take something other than prescriptions. Here’s a link I found. https://www.healthline.com/health/dht#treatment |

I haven't cycled anything for probably about one and a half years. Last cycle was super low dose tren/mast. Thinking about it l, the ed came soon afterwards. I've been trying .25 of arimidex twice a week. I can feel a slight difference down there. I'm wondering if it's my test to e ratio. I'm wondering if my free Test is low. I'm planning on getting that tested and go from there. |

At 1g of test per week I would double your dose of adex to 0.5mg/2x/wk.
Also, if you haven’t cycled in the past one and a half years, then why run a full gram of test per week right away? It took me a couple years to build up to a gram per week and I felt like a balloon with all the water and high estro that came with it. It’s my opinion that you’re simply taking too high a dose of test after so long off cycle and you are also not addressing your estro seriously enough. Taking half a mg of adex twice a week isn’t going to kill your estr or limit your gains either. I think you’re over thinking the whole issue and you just need to take an adequate amount of the appropriate AI. Last edited by AlphaMale; 01-09-2021 at 09:03 PM.. |

I'm not on any blood pressure meds as my pressure is fine No other meds as well. I did get my free t tested just waiting on the test to come back. I bumped my test dose up to .3 eod to see if that would make any changes and started 2x .25 adex a week. I get nightly wood now but now my libido is shot. I have no desire to have sex now, so going to drop adex, continue .3 eod test and redo bloods in 4-5 weeks. Any other ideas?. I'm the horniest person ever usually (like probably have an addiction to sex) so this is super frustrating and very depressing as well. Id never go a day without sex and I've now been going 4-5 and have to force myself. Starting to stress me out. Last edited by Yobie; 01-16-2021 at 08:13 AM.. |

Maybe you are just getting older. The body will change even if you take gear.
So you get erections just fine but don’t think about sex all day? That’s fine, as long as you can perform when it’s time. |
