Does it matter what time of day you take your AI?
ad
I'm asking this question for a couple of reasons:
1) Is there a better time of day to take your AI? Does it matter or do you get a better benefit from taking it AM/PM, etc., regardless of the half-life?
2) I'm taking Aromasin before bed and I've been having trouble sleeping. I tend to wake up quite a bit each night. This was never a problem until I started taking my AI. Does anyone have this problem?
FYI: I'm on 400 Mg of test-c (2x a week) and I'm taking 6.25 mg of aromasin ed. Thanks!

taking an anti estrogen i think really comes down to when youre comfortable with taking it. i have noticed that taking it at bed time for me leads to me sweating a whole lot more. so now i take it in the morning after i have breakfast generally about 2 hours after i wake. although, as men our estrogen is at its highest in the evening, its just one of our bodies natural hormonal cycles, along with our bodies testosterone being its highest in the morning, so to be honest the most ideal time to take an AI is about an hour before bed. i try to always take it with some light food, it can cause nausea in some people and or heart burn if taken on an empty stomach. heart burn or nausea when youre trying to sleep is miserable to deal with.
I have always taken it at night, but I think I'll try it in the morning, like you said. I really haven't had any nausea, but I've had a little heart burn occasionally. I've been worried that it would make me tired during the day, but I'm already tired from not sleeping well, when I take it at night. Can't hurt to try it out. Thanks for the info!
if youre taking aromasin it has a very short terminal half of 8.9 hours. so if it makes you tired in the day time you can break your dose in half and do half in the am and half in the afternoon or PM .
Makes sense. I will try that, starting tomorrow. Again, thanks for the great information and suggestions!
I usually take aromasin before bed. Knocks me out. Of course if you have been drinking over a gl of water a day your gonna get up to piss.
Aromasin ED @ 6.25 mg sounds a bit too much than you might need. If i was you i would switch it too EOD. Your estro might be too low. Remember we still estro to build muscle
I will try that. I started with that, but was advised to up it. I haven't really had any E sides (high or low). Is sleep disturbance one of the low E side effects?
