ok..wtf is going on with my E2?
so my acne kept flaring up when I get off cycle. I ran test E 500mg alone a week 3 months ago. I got bloods and these were the results
Total Test 412. (250-827 ng/dL)
Estradiol 30. (<39 pg/mL)
some said my E2 seemed high in comparison to my total T, others told me to get a sensitive E2 essay, along with other values such as DHT, prolactin and free test.
so I got the sensitive essay and waited for the results.
I kept breaking out and couldn't deal with it anymore so I took 12.5 mg of Armosin EOD for the week.
my acne cleared right up!
so the results from my sensitive essay came back today and my E2 showed as 12 pg.mL
thats low.. im confused as to why my acne cleared up when I got on Adex... wouldnt that lower my E2 even lower??
heres my 2nd bloodwork:
Total Test: 531. (250-1100 ng/dL) free test: 67. (35-155 pg/mL) Estradiol, Ultrasensitive 12. (<29 pg/mL DHT: 41. (16-79 ng/dL) Prolactin: 3.4. (2.0-18 ng/mL)

Your hormone levels were fluctuating going on and off cycle , you levels need to stabilize out. This will take a few months . Be patient follow blood work and use an acne scrub until your acne clears .
Rustyhooker^^^^^there ya go
Typically 12 on the e2 is really low. Fluctuations will cause chaos.
Absolutely it's like going through puberty lol!
