question from a user
My e2 been 150 plus with absolutely zero symptoms. I always thought that was strange lol. I never had any issues when I was at 500 mg week. When I went down to 200 mg week started getting breakouts on arms and back that annoyed me. They were not bad. I started taking .5 anastrazol 2x week to see if it would help so that’s where I am at. Maybe it’s because my body like the ratio better on 509 mg ? I had similar estrogen at 500 and at 200 so maybe that’s why ? Lower testosterone number with similar e2 ?

You have a fixed amount of aromatase. At some point, you will saturate your aromatase supply, and won’t be able to convert more testosterone to estrogen. So it is possible to meet a testosterone level that attaches to all of your aromatase, and then exceed that. It seems that in your case that threshold is exceeded below 200mg/wk.
