Adex Making Me Feel Like Crap

So I am 4.5 weeks into my cycle. Everything is going pretty well so far, I have put on about 13 LBS so far set pr for bench and deadlift. I am running 500 test e every week and just finished dbol that was at 30 mg ed for 4 weeks.

During week 3 I noticed I was getting a little bit of an itchy nipple and they were hard not lumpy but I was just nipping out all the time, so I took that as a sign that my estrogen was to high and bumped my adex up from .25 eod to ed. Well this made me feel like shit. I was tired all the time, felt weird, and had some anxiety. When I finished the dbol I took 4 days off of from the adex and I feel great again. I am pretty sure my sides were from the adex by the way and not the dbol since I have ran dbol before at these dosages and was fine. A little tired maybe but none of the anxiety or weird feeling.

So I am thinking that the adex does not agree with me, or I am an over responder. Anyone else ever get this? Also what are the body signs you guys look for as far as the right estrogen levels? I know to low you can get ache joints, but it seems as if a lot of the estro to high or to low sides mimic each other so it kind of be hard to tell where you are at unless you are getting blood work every two weeks.

Anyways I think I am just going to run the adex .25 twice a week or drop it down to 12.5 eod will this even do anything to lower estro or should I just drop it? Nips are fine now btw think it was just the dbol. I am going to look into some Aromasin for next cycle and try that out instead.

Also couple more quick question so I don’t have to start another thread
As I stated above I have been making some real nice gains but after dropping the dbol I don’t think the test has really made its presence known yet. Libido is about the same as always has been. Feel about the same as well. 4.5 weeks in I would think I should be feeling something soon. Anyone else a late responder to test e? My buddy is on the same gear and it is working over time for him so I know the gear is legit.

Lastly I have just been alternating quads for pinning. right quad Monday left Thursday and repeat. So 1 pin in each quad every 7 days. I did throw delts in for one week but I was like Micheal J. Fox trying to jab the fucking needle in and I cant reach my ass so quads seem to be my go to place. Is 1 pin a week in quads alright or should I be alternating different sites more? I make sure I am never sore or anything from last pin before jabbing and I am only putting in 1 cc at a time.

Thanks for any feedback. I will let everyone know how the cycle finishes up. Pretty happy now with the results, I appear to be about the same body fat% maybe slightly higher and up 13 LBS. Probably some water in there but I would like to finish up 20-30 LBS and keep 15-20 of it. I know those would be pretty awesome results but that is my goal.

Maybe you should consider trying .5mg E3D or EOD. I was told injection sites should really only be hit once every 14 days. Not sure if there’s any truth to that, but I’ll be using my quads and glutes for pinning.

currently trying .25 mon, wed, and Friday, much better since doing that (first week though) . I am trying to dial it in and since I dropped the dbol I really have no sides since finishing dbol so the less I use the better. This is my first proper cycle and you can read everything from 1mg ed all the way down to none so I really think it just depends on the user getting it dialed in. Tough to tell until you dive in and do it I guess but as much as I read experience is always a nice benefactor that is why I consult this forum.

Thank you bdubb for the response.
I thought I read every 7 days for injection sites is fine but there may be conflicting information just like everything else with aas. I know a couple guys that only alternate glutes for quite sometime without any problems. I am just a novice but only pinning 1 cc once every 7 days should be alright but I am contradicting my question if anyone had any problems with that frequency?

Should I start training the wifey with some oranges or what? Honestly I don’t want her to be pinning me especially if she is mad:}

oh by the way I was using a 25 gauge 1 inch for all injections. Got some 1 cc slin pins in and decided to try them out and I got my worst pip in my quad since my first ever injection. It must have taken me about 3-4 minutes to inject the full 1cc and I let it sit in warm water before hand. Advice to newbies only use 0.5cc and do two separate injections.

Or the better way use a 25 gauge and inject the full 1 cc and be done with it. Keep it simple and try not to get overwhelmed with all the info out there find what works for you and go with it as long as it is somewhat safe lol
