Can e-blockers jump start T production even while you're on TRT?

I have a theoretical question.

When you're on TRT your LH goes to zero and your own production stops.

if you then add an e-blocker (arimidex) then the brain realizes that estrogen is too low and assumes that this means that testosterone production is low, too, right?

If this is correct then would this not mean that by taking arimidex you can trick your brain into thinking that it needs to release LH in order to produce testosterone?

That would be cool.

Being prescribed TRT would indicate exogenous testosterone levels were negligible to start with, any effect of an AI would be negated by the TRT dose present in the body...
Remember testosterone acts as negative feedback on GnRH as well as low estrogen..
 
Your brain ( the HPTA) will since the high level of testosterone and not create any LH or FSH, regardless of your low estradiol level.
