Is there something else to cut while I’m still on cycle to maximize effectiveness?
Primo, anavar, clen?
What would you suggest?
I think it is wise to see if one needs an AI before just using it. I wouldn’t use acutane on cycle from the beginning just because some people get cystic acne. I wouldn’t use a DHT blocker from the start because some people get hair loss. Same goes for the AI. Use it if you need it.
I have only run 1 cycle with 325 mg test and 50 mg oxandralone. I am just starting my second. I am running at 400 mg test for 5 weeks, then if all is well I am bumping up to 500 mg for the remainder. I am doing this to see if I need an AI with the higher dose. If I do, I would probably just run lower dose with another non-aromatizable compound. The AIs are hard on the liver, lipids, GH levels… I would rather run a dose that I don’t have to use an AI, vs one that I do. I can also throw in a oral like tbol with the lower test if need be to get similar results.
If you are going to run the AI, start with the lowest amount you can get by with. If you can only split the tab once, take .5 mg once weekly. You can also look up how to dissolve adex in vodka so you can micro dose it.
The websites that recommend 1 mg of adex EOD or whatever are basing that recommendation on old information and bro science. Additionally, they are probably looking at pro bodybuilder contest prep cycles (as those are somewhat understood, and it is assumed these guys know what they are doing). The BBer contest cycle uses a lot of AI, or basically really low test to look really dry. They know what they are doing generally, but it is to get a look, that comes with a price of feeling terrible.
I didn’t plan on using AI, but I felt itchiness on nipples. Maybe “placebo” but I thought, better safe than sorry.
I will definitely cut down dosages!
It will help my pocket too, since here it’s more expensive than gear! 
Well if you do start getting nipple stuff, by all means use it. However, many crash their e2 in the process. It is good to learn how your body responds to compounds you plan on using.
It might have been my imagination, but I have always stored fat on my chest more than average, so I’m actually really insecure about TBH.
But I started using it just to be better safe than sorry.
Thought about using nolvadex as it’s much cheaper and it blocks receptors, but read it’s not as effective and can rebound after the cycle.
