Default nipple is a little tender again

Need some help since so little is availiable where I live.

I did a few cycles when I was 20 and had great gains but did not come off like I should so I ended up with my right nipple becoming tender, gland swelling, and a little discharge which all went away a few months after I ended . I again took when I was around 24-25 and again had good results and ended up with the same problem that ended shortly after my cycle ended.

My current problem is about a year after that first cycle aI had a big drop off in sexual desire and started having increased body fat. I went to the doctor for the first time when I was 27 for this isssue and tested right around 240 for my testosterone level and since I was told I was in the normal range I was stuck. I got a new doctor about 1 year later and again got tested and started the sublingual testosterone under the tounge in the smallest dose and my level dropped to around 180 after 2 weeks . I was told to see an endrocronologist to take another test which came in at 260 so I was again told I was in the normal range so there was nothing I could do. I have had this swollen gland in my right nipple since my first cycle ended and I can always tell when my level is up or down based on it and how I feel. I moved to a new area and found a new doctor who treats the person and not the test and put me on Testosterone Cyp about one week ago after I tested around 360. A few days after the first injection of 300 milligrams /1.5 cc (I think) my right nipple has again started to become tender. I talked to him about it and he is stumped and I consider myself to have pretty good knowlege on the subject but can't figure out how it started so fast and why. I can only assume I have an elovated estrogen level which increased when I started the test due to the conversion. I need some ideas why this is happening and what I can do to stop the nipple soreness because I do not want full blown Gynecomastia. I know I need the testosterone therapy because I can't keep going on having the sex drive or test levels of a 70 year old man. In my opinion I need to take and estrogen blocker and want some advice on which one or if I should switch testosterones to a more user friendly version if there is one and which one would be best suited. My doctor is open to working through this so I forwared many of the rearch links to him so he can research as well.
