Thread: Blood pressure???

Not on cruise doses. When I up it to a blast I can feel my BP go up.

If your not taking a AI and your e2 is high....then it can effect your bp...

Thank you s2h,
I feel like you might be right. I see my doc next week and I was going to ask for a lab for specifically E2 test. An AI is a estrogen blocker correct? What would a normal estrogen range be??

Ever since I started trt my blood pressure has gone up. Doc put me on lisinopril to help lower it. If you're on 200mg/wk then yes your BP is gonna be higher as well as your E. My normal trt protocol is 100mg/wk and I take Exemestane 12.5mg/day which levels my E around 30-45. Keep in mind, it took me several lapbcorp bloodwork tests and trial and errors to get my E levels stable.

Thank you Jupiterak.....

What is high ?? Try some apple cider vinegar, 1/4 cup a day. Also try fresh beet juice . get a blood test and have RBC and hematocrit checked, too much thickens the blood and anabolics usually do increase RBC

To sneedham ,
You want your Estradiol levels between 20-30 . I think max is about 40, but thats E2 , if you are looking at total Estro numbers could be higher

If e2 levels are very low you can get high blood pressure also. I had a e2 level of 4 along with sweating and high blood pressue, headaches at the gym were terrible.

Have you measured your BP? How high is it in correlation to before 200mg text cyp trt

also how much water do you drink daily and how is your sodium intake?

Apple cider vinegar is good for you, I try to do a 2oz shot every day.

Low dose aspirin has always worked for me. That and my rbc gets fairly high after blasting awhile. Giving blood helps that alot

Thanks to everyone for all your advic......

Although I agree that drastically elevated E2 can raise bp, 200mg of test/wk shouldn't cause this. In fact testosterone is a natural blood thinner and typically lowers bp. I'm on 200mg/wk of test cyp and my doc is almost ready to take me off lisinopril. I believe sneedham needs to check his E2. If that's ok he needs to consider another solution such as hawthorn berry.

i have never heard test was a blood thinner i tought it thickend your blood?

I thought the same thing. It increases rbc which makes blood thicker was my understanding

No that's incorrect. Testosterone thins the blood therefore lowering bp. Check out this hrt website for info Testosterone Therapy & HGH Therapy

Other steroids such as deca and eq thicken the blood through increasing RBC.

Ok,
Went to my urologist yesterday, and just to clarify I am on 200mg/ml every two weeks. I asked about my BP and DR told me test should not raise it. Now to complicate things a little more, I tried a 1/4 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar and to my surprise I def felt better. My baseline Estradiol was 22 which should be in the ball park (niviceass thank you), My latest Total test was 497 that was a week after my first injection of 200mg/ml (cypionate). He also ordered another full work up to include RBC, free test, estradiol and a bunch more. I go in for this next round of tests in two weeks. When I get the results I will post and update everyone. It should be interesting and by the way I went in armed with a lot of questions and even a print out to back up my questions and concerns regarding E2, RBC, BP...etc..And that is thanks to all you guys..My Doc seems very receptive to helping and not just prescribing a bunch of crap...Also, workouts, strength and energy are up, but libido still a little below avg....

After u a few visits to ur doc if ur test is still slightly low it's possible he will up your dose to 200ew instead of 200 every 2 weeks. If u pin 100 ew instead of 200 every 2 ur levels will be alot more stable

I agree..I asked Doc if he was ok with that and he said it was fine...I hope he will raise me to 200mg per week..I am def feeling better and stronger...
