How Blocking Estrogen Kills a Major Benefit of TRT with C.G. Bronson, M.D.
Blocking estrogen negates one of the major benefits of TRT, the reduction in visceral fat! It also comes with other undesirable effects. In this video I talk with C.G. Bronson, M.D., an internal medicine doctor and newly-minted Testosteronologist™ about these effects, how to avoid them, and how to adjust testosterone dosing to manage estrogen rather than jumping straight to estrogen blockers. We also discuss the more rare cases where estrogen blockers can make sense. See videos on many men’s health topics and join my Q&A to ask your own questions at www.AnabolicDocApp.com
Dr. Bronson can take patients via telemedicine in South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, and Florida. He’s opening a brick and mortar clinic in Florida. For inquiries, see: www.B3Clinic.com. You can find him on social media at:

Now the further i go from the shot the more hornier i am andthe easier to C*m.. My girlfriend even likes it better when i dont take it,, i went over a month without it and we had more sex then weve had in a long time.. The problem is , i crashed not long after and had to start up again.. I am prescribed 120 a wk of course i was taking more in the beginning some 5 yrs ago, but now as im older i worry about hight rbcs,and see that less is DEF more in the sex dpartment.. Not so much for bodybuilding.. Id love to take Deca and dbol but i cant. H and H is way to high on that and nothing is worth a stroke dudes, it just isnt...

Take CoQ-10, Tart Cherry, Astragalus, and do lots of cardio. Do all this and be careful about your dosages. 1/2cc test prop and 1/2cc test cyp 2x week plus 100mg masteron 2x week is enough for me. That’s 350mg test 200 mg masteron total dosage of 550mg/wk.

    There is really so much wrong with this video. Because the outcomes of research studies are based on statistical averages. That does not take into account or consider individual responses. This guy has no experience in actually treating men with testosterone. He’s only sighting research. I actually, look at labs and evaluate men every single day. And it is extremely individual. Intramuscular versus subcutaneous injections do not work out the same in everyone. I have literally seen decreases in total testosterone from men switching from one to the other. Subcutaneous is not predictable. It varies greatly and I have had men do much worse with that method of administration. I can’t stand when people make blanket statements and comments like this. It is incorrect, ignorant, and arrogant due to individual responses.

    • @silaskeck9438
      @silaskeck9438 День тому

      Well he is "citing" research, and he is an experienced internist with years of experience treating men and women with testosterone. The labs are obsessed over by inexperienced providers, and not that important. No wonder you think AIs are fine. Your understanding of the issues at play is obviously poor. You haven't addressed the visceral fat issue at all, which is the subject of the video. Individualized approaches are important but you just dismissing him on the basis of your incorrect perception of him being inexperienced is silly in light of the fact that you've actually addressed not a single thing he actually said.

  • @seanfitzgerald1888
    @seanfitzgerald1888 2 дні тому

    The problem with the sighted research that is being presented is that it is not stating that serum estradiol is not relevant to estradiol that is being produced within tissues and cells. Most organs contain aromatase enzymes that convert testosterone into estradiolupon contact. Then attached to an effect, the estrogen receptors. Serum estradiol is what is left over and not inside the tissue being used. When there is excess, most likely the tissue is saturated which is why high serum estradiol causes issues in men feeling weepy and sad. Again it’s about proper management not leaving it alone to going to absurd levels.

  • @seanfitzgerald1888
    @seanfitzgerald1888 2 дні тому

    Doc, I love what you do for people and the industry. But testsoterologist is a made up word. There is no such thing. And please be specific about estrogen management, not estrogen destruction like what is done for breast cancer treatment. There is a very big difference in managing healthy estrogen in men. I manage a hormone clinic for men and women. Estrogen is a hormone that increases one’s ability to feel emotions. The biological design is so that a woman will develop a strong emotional connection to her children and want to take care of, feed and protect them. Men are designed to have high testosterone in order to do whatever is necessary to provide and protect their family. Men are the original warriors and protectors of their tribes and families. Men were designed to be able to go out and slaughter any threat against their families. Then be able to come home kiss their wives covered in the blood of their enemies and not feel bad about it. Testosterone is meant to create some emotional disconnect for that biological purpose. Why else do you think that the movie 300 was so popular? Because both men and women loved the theme of the movie. There is nothing more masculine than a man fighting to protect his family. And there is nothing that attracts a woman more than a man , that is willing to do anything to protect her.

    Always great videos from Anabolic Doc and many thanks to Dr Bronson for the wonderful and informative interview. As a doctor who does HRT, there’s a few things I’d like to broach: 1- subcutaneous TRT impractical for men. Any volume beyond 0.1 ml is painful especially for men with arthritis and the nodules can be ugly and can last for weeks or never go away. Getting men to inject more than twice weekly is pretty much a no-go. 2- Estradiol anti inflammatory but also increases insulin resistance and triglycerides so I think it’s awash…what’s your take? 3- True we need to go easy on AI but if you have a man with facial edema or gyno and their E is in the 70s and they don’t want to reduce their T dose then what else are you gonna do besides AI? 4- letting E increase can also increase SHBG which lowers the free T so ….again, gotta bring down E with AI. On a side note, do we know the effect of estradiol on erectile function? We know that low E causes low libido which causes ED. But do we know the direct role of E on erectile function through the penile estrogen receptor? Again, thank you for the information. Love you guys!

    • @YazanAbdullahMD
      @YazanAbdullahMD 2 дні тому

      Another issue is related to the endothelial cells. 1- testosterone appears to directly dilate vessels in vivo and vitro, poorly understood but we already know that it has favorable effects via transmembrane receptors and ion channels so it’s not just through aromatization or through the androgen receptor. 2- if estrogen indeed increases insulin resistance (even with normal A1c the patient could be running hyperinsulinemic), wouldn’t that be detrimental to endothelial cells?! See once you get down to the details it gets very confusing.

Also, agreed- SQ is tough for years and certainly not in the abdomen, but some men can master it. Truth is, we don’t really understand this yet. I also use the lowest dose and micro dose as much as possible for each patient. Additionally, there are so many other variables to consider in wellness, eg, ABCDS, real diets and training and of course- Zen Meditation!! That’s my newest secret 🤫. Thank you Doc!! Look forward to meeting you one day 💪🙏

I have cancer and had to be put on it because of low T and 100mg a week put me up to 1300. If you have too high of test, it will turn to estrogen. The more you do, doesn’t put you at optimal levels. My skin got oily after just a few months on it. Still am on it and feel much better than I did, but you all are crazy thinkin ya need 500-1000mg a week unless you have absolutely zero natural test production.

    I am 51 and have been on TRT since 2015. I have a high tendency to aromatase and have gynecomastia from past steroid uses and past finasteride treatment. I currently micro dose subcutaneous daily 8-15 mg of Test Enanthate and do not take a regular AI. My total T, runs about 575 to 700 ng/dL and my E2 runs about 35 to 45 pg/ml. If I have over sensitive nipples, I will take 1/4 mg of Anastrozole, once to twice a week. But, this happens very rarely and I find I can back manipulate my Test Dose for a few days and the problem resolves it's self. All my other vital blood work is spot on and my mood and sex life are un-changed from my early to mid 30's. You have to have a good doctor that will give you the patient the freedom to experiment and find the dose the balances your system. Everyone reacts differently to these medications. The one size fits most approach, does not work.

    I've been reading research that Cialis (Tadalafil) can significantly decrease prolactin levels in patients while Viagra (Sildenafil) does not have any effect. Would this not be a good reason to stick with Cialis over Viagra? considering high levels of prolactin links to slow rebound rate for "the next session"?

    The VA is all over the place. I’ve been on TRT for a few years prior to getting into the VA community care system. At my first visit with my primary care doc I told him I’m on TRT. He prescribed me the dose I asked him to and gave me a blood panel. No questions asked and it costs me nothing.

    Started TRT nearly 12 months ago, i live in the UK. Starting protocol was 1ml Sustanon every 4 weeks (i refused nebido due to working internationally so no guarantee i would be available for set injection dates as well as thr horror stories of some men having bad experiences with it to get levels right). After months my levels at the 4 week point were still low (4.8nmol/L) so my endocrinologist wanted to up my frequency to 3 weeks, however my hemocrit was 50 and 0.17 so i was verging on dangerous levels. The endo said go for another 12 weeks to try to get my levels down. I manged to do this by losing a bit more weight and a few lifstyle changes so i on my next blood panel the results were 45 and 16 so thr endo was happy for me to inject 1ml every 3 weeks. Fast forward to now and my i have an appointment in a week and my latest bloods came back still low (4.8nmol/L again) but hematocrit was similar at 45. Im wondering now what my endo is going to suggest going forward? Inj 1ml every 2 weeks or up the dosage and stay at 3 weeks? What questions should i be asking if he trys to push me doen one particular path as i do feel he is really just trying do whats easiest for him. Symptomatic wise i feel good on the sus for about 2 weeks then about a week out i deteriorate rapidly in terms of mood, irritability and afternoon fatigue as well as the black dog reappearing.

    My dr recently cut my trt from 100mg every week to 100mg every 2 weeks. Because my blood was thick. Not sure if she made the best choice for me.

    Are my thoughts below correct appreciate your opinion Testosterone can aromatize into estrogen, while trenbolone does not. Therefore, when taking a combination of testosterone and trenbolone, the testosterone dose needs to be sufficient to maintain adequate estrogen levels for overall hormonal balance and health. Here’s the rationale: 1. Testosterone and Aromatization: When you take testosterone, some of it converts into estrogen through a process called aromatization. This estrogen is important for various physiological functions, including joint health, mood regulation, and sexual function. 2. Trenbolone and Estrogen: Trenbolone does not aromatize, meaning it does not convert into estrogen. It can even potentially lower estrogen levels indirectly by suppressing endogenous testosterone production. When you take a lower dose of testosterone (125 mg) combined with trenbolone (150 mg), the amount of testosterone converting to estrogen might not be sufficient to maintain normal estrogen levels. This could lead to symptoms of low estrogen, such as joint pain, mood swings, and sexual dysfunction. Therefore, increasing your testosterone dose to 250 mg per week along with 150 mg of trenbolone can help ensure that you have enough testosterone to convert to estrogen, maintaining a better hormonal balance

    These doctors are literally the worst. I have been on TRT for years, trying all kinds of protocols to no avail, I never had a good libido. I thought I was broken for life. All because these "smart" individuals have drilled into my head that aromatase inhibitors are so bad on trt. Finally I started to take 1 mg of Arimidex per week, split into two doses and my libido not only came back but it was better than absolutely ever. So yeah, stop spreading misinformation, "doctors", because of you people are suffering!

    I have low-normal T, but high (off the reference range) DHEA and high-normal cortisol. Not sure that high DHEA is bad, but I definitely want to bring cortisol down. I also get poor, very light sleep, and I think the cortisol is not helping. But it seems there's no good ways to bring it down...
