Title

I’ve been on HRT for 6 months, with 5mg weekly injections for the last 3 of those months.
3 months ago, my E was 22 pg/ml, now it is 333 pg/ml.
Doctor says that is too high and is going to to reduce me to a “maintenance dose”. Just wanted to check with other people if this is consistent with their experiences. Thanks!

    E level is higher than it needs to be so dosage should probably be lowered, but the “maintenance dose” terminology is still a red flag imo. just make sure they are dosing you reasonably lower and your levels are within range. also if you arent getting your T levels tested as well then you should do that (just saying this because it was absent from this post)

      I had both tested, but the T results are just taking longer. Thanks for the concern :)
