Will Finasteride “overload” The Hormones ?

[GRme11]

Well, in my blood test (Early in June) my testosterone was 806 with normal ranges of 250-836.Finasteride as we know is increasing T and Estrogen . So my T will be sky high if I start and so hormonal imbalance?? Estradiol (E2,tested early July)was 22 with the range be less than 60.How much these values will be change?? Thanks

Something around 15%
But this is just a number and it affects people differently

So E2 iwill increase from 22 to 25-26(3,3->15% of 22) and so T to 926?? This will cause overload in T making it out of ranges , or it’s not going like that ?

Actually no one can answer that.
I mean, that's correct in theory, but it affects also neurosteroids like allopregnanolone, and glutammine/Gaba balance, which thing you're not going to see even of you get checked.
That not necessarily mean you will suffer from it, probably you dont, but the point is you cant forecast how you're going to respond to it.
If you want to know if side (sexual)effects are caused by estrogens spikes provoked by pushing T (inhibiting dht)or by neurosteroids deprivation the answer is still unknown (neurosteroids for sure affects dopamine and so mood and sex drive, but still)

Nobody can give you an exact response on this. I guess you'll have to see. If you have too much T and no way to convert to DHT (due to Fina) there's an increased chance to have that extra T turning into E.

I see... thank you for your response
