When I first started taking an AI I used a pill cutter to cut a 1mg tab in to 2 x 0.5mg tabs. If I tried to cut it any smaller it would crumble. I was initially taking 0.5mg every 5 days. This crashed my E2 so different solution was needed. Disolving it in vodka allows me to microdose and I now take 0.0375mg every day. There is no way I could do this using a pill cutter.
If you’re in the US you can get 0.125mg Anastrozole rabs at compounding pharmacies. You can quarter those with a pill cutter, which will yield that 0.0375 dose.
Vodka probably works too, although I’m not sure how much you can guarantee a uniform distribution of the medication but it’s probably close enough
Im a triathlete in the same boat here. I have been walking around at 168lb for years, but have climbed to 200lb from TRT. I’ve managed to get back down to 185lb but finding it really had to drop the weight, and do think e2 is the main reason. I’ve split my dose into 3 shots a week, that has helped a little bit.
I’m hoping I miraculously drop back down to 168 for IM race day whilst maintaining the extra power! I’ll be interested to hear how you get on.

One week on an a.i and its dropping off.
Water I guess- but anecdotally I’m way less hungry and craving less food.
In my case, yes.
…one week on what dose AI and what dose Test ?
Test currently 175mg (50mg eod).
I front loaded the a.i and am.currently taking 1/6 mg e36h
Weird dosing schedule I know but the half life of arimidex is 50 hours so it keeps it stable. Thats 7/9 mg per week so closely approx to 0.75mg a week.
Basically my Dr is experienced and I trust him. He has success with guys with my numbers using 0.75mg a week. He suggested 1/4 tab 3x per week. I worked out they break into 6 with a very sharp knife (i cant do 8ths), and so this was the most stable way of doing it.
