Nipple pain, despite using Arimidex

Veteran TRT and Steroid abuser here.

Been on 2 years, and was feeling great until about 4 months ago when I started having nipple pain despite using an AI. Went and got my prolactin and estrogen tested, estrogen came back exactly normal (35pgml IIRC) and prolactin came back low-normal, I think a 6 out of a scale of 16. So I ruled out the two obvious things. I started taking a tab of Nolvadex per week and that mildly helped and the problem generally went away. These last few weeks though it's been back with a vengeance, no matter how much Arimidex I use, the nipple pain is still there. I don't get it.

My nipples visually look normal, they look like they have zero gyno, but they are painful to touch. My only plan now is go down to something like 100mg of test, and 100mg of primo for a few weeks. I just want to fix this. What do y'all think?

How many mg of Nolva and Arimidex have you been using? 35pg/ml seems fine, it might even be a little low if you're on a cycle.

On 100 mg of Testosterone, you would barely need to use any AI. A large amount of Arimidex could crash your estrogen, possibly leading to estrogen rebound and gyno. If you have pain, I would continue to take the AI and Nolvadex. I would recommend ordering some Raloxifene. Start dosing the Raloxifene and drop the Nolvadex when it arrives.

I prefer Aromasin over Arimidex. You can get a lot more info from the estrogen handbook on r/steroids

I've been on 200mg+ this whole time. I mix in steroid cycles when I have vacation days built up at work so I can get to the gym more days a week. when I'm not blasting I go back to 200mg.

edit: I did just order some more Nolvadex. I mentioned 100mg in the original post because I wondered if that was something I should try, as a way to cut estrogen in half.
