Does anyone else's body just refuse to have high estrogen levels?

I'm not really sure how else to describe it, but in my 4.5 years of transitioning my E2 has always been on the low end kinda no matter what I take

I first started on oral pills 4mg then to 6mg them to 8mg, by 8mg i would still hover at like 70-80 pmgl (250-300 pmol)

I then transitioned to sublingual pills, and started at 8mg which got me to a bit better of a position being like 95-120pgml (350-450pmol) my dr did let me go to 10mg also which provided around the same levels, however my last result on 10mg did hit 180pgml (660 pmol) which is the highest I've been.

My dr did try gels also, im not sure on the concentration of it, it was only for a little while, and my levels sucked, from memory I think it was like 55pgml (200pmol)

So that brings to me now in the last 4 months, I've started injections (EEn) at 6mg once a week, i do .16ml of a 40ml vial (6mg), and just got my results at 120pgml (443pmol)

I suppose I don't really care for chasing a higher number anymore like I used to, I'm more just confused at how i'm always on the lower end compared to alot of the girls I see here or anywhere else on the same dosages.

I've feminized fine the whole time, so idk 🤷‍♀️

My testosterone has been fully suppressed the whole time as well, I got put on Cypro and very quickly went to 0.1-0.3nmol with like no free T at all as well.

I've quit blockers a year ago and am still completely suppressed.
