Hormonal Rollercoaster Masterclass

For anyone who wants higher testosterone and a better T:E2 ratio—naturally or on TRT

At the start of 2024, I was cruising on 500mg of testosterone enanthate, sitting at 2400 ng/dl. I was also using 25mg Aromasin twice weekly to control estrogen. For some reason, I didn’t measure E2 at that point, but I felt great.

Then I came off in March 2024.

In January 2025, I went back on the same 500mg dose—but my testosterone tanked. I hovered between 1000–1500 ng/dl. Even worse, I had to slam 4 caps of Aromasin per week just to keep my E2 under 90.

Same dose. A thousand points lower T. Estrogen spiraling out of control. A hormonal disaster.

Why the Same Dose Produced Totally Different Results

Throughout 2024 and 2025, I ran constant experiments and labwork—sometimes testing every two weeks. I knew exactly how my numbers shifted with different dietary and supplement changes.

On paper, I looked healthy:

  • Inflammation low

  • Liver enzymes perfect

  • Thyroid solid

But two things stood out:

  • My cholesterol was always a bit high (still under 300)

  • My ferritin was elevated (as high as 580)

And deep down, I knew my gut health wasn’t perfect. My digestion was great, my transit time optimal, but some foods still irritated me, and I had minor food sensitivities.

I brushed it off—until this year, when I started running targeted experiments.
