estro levels - MESO-Rx

naba11 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-15-2004, 12:46 AM

I started using regular gear (test, eq, ect..) at a young age, used for 3 years, and stopped about a year and a half ago. I thought by now that test/estro levels would be back to normal considering i havent used anything for many months. Some days i still feel like the small amount of gyno i have flares up, and at times i even think it is getting worse. Is it possible that it could be getting worse, and does saw palmetto truly work for blocking estrogen receptors?
Any insight or similar experiences is/are appreciated.

Thanks

You wouldn't still have residually high estrogen levels,,,,if anything, they could be low, if you've yet to fully recover HPTA......there wouldn't be any significant fluctuation from day to day either.

saw palmetto is used against DHT

uh... I dont think saw palmetto is used for estrogen receptors... its used for prostate health...

were you on gear for 3 years without stop or what? If that is the case your natural system is going to take one hellava time to come back online... Im guessing (since you didnt mention it) that you didnt use HCG or Nolva or Clomid when you came off... so that is another problem... Id invest in some HCG, Clomid and Nolvadex before doing anything... ok i just re read and saw you have been off for a year and a half... perhaps you permently blunted your HPTA?... if anyone else has an opinion please feel free to interject.

i took time off between cycles, and after my last one i used clomid and felt good after it. I felt as if my natural test was back up and running. The day to day change i have now feels like one day, or even part of a day its swollen and tender, and other parts of the day its less noticeable and not tender at all to the touch.
