Hello, recently started back on trt after taking about 6 months off. Started back taking 200 cypionate .5ml twice per week. Just had some bloodwork done and free testosterone was 435, Total Testosterone was 1451 and estrogen was 82. I do feel exhausted, bloated, etc. In the past, I’ve been on the same dosage and never went about 800 for total testosterone. I have also had high (not this high) estrogen levels before so I took an AI.just wanted to get input on if I should start taking an iMac again and or adjust my testosterone dosage lower. Still feel new to all of this - go easy on me lol.
I can’t figure out how to reply to the most recent thread so adding this hear. It looks like i can not add multiple images at this time.

Right now, my bodyfat is high at 19% (via a DEXA scan). I have always gone through a doctor for testosterone. For years it was my GP who I felt was pretty knowledgeable, etc but his practice moved 4 hours away. I tried local endocrinologist but they seemed very outdated with their approach. I most recently switched to a commonly used (I think) online telehealth company.
