Thread: explain aromisan during pct

aromasin is a type II steroidal and suicidal AI which means it binds to the aromatase enzyme and permanently destroys it. during PCT, estrogen levels will be sky high so you want to do as much as you can to decrease it. there is also little to no estro-rebound on aromasin as opposed to arimidex or letro. so it's very versatile. i also hear it's easier on the lipids than arimidex.

thanks

Not only is the aromasin keeping estradiol levels low, but that low estrogen results in the body thinking it has low testosterone too, and that's the whole point of driving estradio levels low. And gyno prevention, of course.
You're essentially doing this with a serm also, but in a different way. The serm is binding to the receptors that estrogen usually binds too. Although the serm can bind to this receptor, it does not activate it the same way as estrogen does. Therefore, it blocks the receptor from estrogen binding and the body thinks estradiol and testosterone levels are low and it starts the process of making more testosterone.

aromasin for the win! this will be my first time tryin during test cycle so we'll see

Is it better on cycle than adex?

So even if you use Aromasin during your cycle to keep estrogen low you also want to use it in your PCT?
What dosing would you suggest when using it in pct for a test e/dbol cycle (10 weeks/4weeks) while using the Aromasin 12.5ed while on cycle?

25/25/12.5/12.5 or 20/20/10/10, depending on how your tabs or liquid is dosed.

On cycle is more of a matter of preference, but for PCT aromasin is better as there is no estro-rebound with it.

short answer: yes.

but it's better to dose it ED since it has a shorter half life than arimidex which can be dosed EOD if desired.

yea man, aromasin is awesome for both on cycle use and PCT. during cycle, 12.5mg ED is perfect. and for PCT you wanna run it 25/25/12.5/12.5 or something close to that.

GMO we talked the other day in a different thread about Aromasin. (but not about using it in pct)

It will be 25mg tabs.
So I guess the plan will be:
12.5mg ED weeks 1-10
and then pct will be 25/25/12.5/12.5 ED

Do I start the Aromasin on the first day of week 1?
Also do I start the 25mg ED on the first day of week 11 or do I wait until I start taking my Clomid to up it to the 25mg ED? (Cycle is Test e 500mg/wk for 10 wks and 25mgs of dbol the first 4 wks)

Run 12.5mg ED from day one until you start your PCT. Then bump up to 25mg ED with you Clomid.

If you start to get sore joints or lethargic on cycle, you can change your dose to 12.5mg eod.
