The above statement is misleading without an estradiol lab value. High estrogen

in men is associated with heart disease, and too much TRT can cause high

estradiol.

Curious statement Phil. All your comments apply all the time. What's the

difference?

What I ment to say " it was a long day yesterday " is not everyone will do as good

as your doing with lowing there dose. I have a very hard time with lower levels

don't do well on them. Today I think the reasion for this is low Growth Hormone

now that I am on HGH I am finding I can lower my dose and do better with lower

levels. There is just so much to this one hormone can be off and it makes the

body take from other hormones to try to keep balance in doing this some get dam

sick.
