I’m on 175mg per week of test-c injected E3.5D. I also take .5mg anastrozole on the same day due to some high E side effects (gyno development, high BP, anorgasmia).
I feel like the AI is making me feel a little lethargic. I haven’t wanted to stop because of the gyno, though.
Thinking of dropping the AI, and getting on Tamoxifen until the gyno subsides, while lowering my dose to 150mg to see if I can go without AI’s.
Will this work? Should I continue the Adex while I’m on Tamoxifen?
So youre you’re taking 1mg total total anastrazole per week?
Surprised youre youre getting any E2 sides on that dose, its very powerful stuff,bet you’re near bottom of the range on a blood test.
Also, no need to be taking a long ester like Cyp twice a week, have you tried just weekly? See if that helps
Yes. E7D 
yeah 1mg a week. To clarify I have no E2 sides now that I’m on it except that my gyno is still there.
If gyno is the only concern no, I would just run the Nolva
Running Nolva only with that level of test sounds like a solid plan to me. Just pay attention to how your nipples feel. If they get ‘that’ feeling, add Letro, Not Arimidex. Letro can reverse recent gyno and provides the other functionality of arimidex. If you get to that point that you add Letro, stay on the Nolva also. Letro will block armotization but won’t destroy the Estrogne already in your blood.
Thank you! Does one need to taper adex or can I go cold Turkey after Nolva?
Tapering both up and down is the safest protocol but at the levels you are at I would just switch. Personally, I don’t taper AIs or SERMs at all other than testing low doses to see how I react mentally. Other than that I either start them or stop them.
This is nonsense. You don’t know this. I don’t know this. Your doc doesn’t know this.
You’re taking 1.75 times the amount of test a natural “peak” male would produce.
Who knows why you feel lethargic or need an AI, but one could guess.
Let’s all start being a bit rational here at a basic level.
If we want to cycle for the gains then let’s do it.
Let’s stop “mini cycling” and asking dumb questions about why we experience health abnormalities.
My initial T reading when I went in was 95.3 ng/dl, so I imagine I may need a higher dose than most. Not sure, though. I do not want a “mini-cycle”. Or at least that is not my intent.
So, follow up question for all…
Is Tamoxifen going to be better than the Adex if all I want to try and battle is the gyno? I feel I’ve crashed my E2 a bit, and all the positive effects I want to feel from T are gone. Granted, I may need a small amount of Adex, we’ll see, but maybe .5mg a week versus 1mg.
If your only concern is gyno sure.
see above
OK, my doc gave me 10mg/day. Is that a decent dose?
