I absolutely think you're on the right track with your thinking now, the smaller more frequent shots are shown to allow serum SHBG to rise coupled with the cessation of the AI should definitely help you feel better. When I figured out my issue I was already at the end of my run anyway so I had switched back to my TRT doses with test E and I started doing 35mg of test E EOD with zero AI and I was feeling substantially better within just a days, muscles fuller and actually feeling strong and hardened compared to how I was.
I like you, experience better libido & stronger erections as well with lower E2 but I am doing just fine without one now that I am back to TRT. I can feel that it is a bit higher than I normally like but I am going to stay the course and continue to evaluate how i'm feeling. I have been on this protocol for five & a half weeks as of today and feeling fantastic. I am going to wait a couple more weeks before blood work as my cholesterol & lipid levels were a bit off from the long blast and I want to make sure they're back in range too.
Definitely do some research and ask your doctor about possible causes of that baseline prior to TRT low SHBG!
If this continues to go well for you@ 35mg / eod, will you increase dose to find your upper threshold or just hold it where your at if its feeling good and blast from that base point?
