Gyno Flare Up Need Advice

ad

I got a gyno flare up (puffy nipple and small tender lump right behind nipple) in one nipple. I got it week 8 of 12 running test 600mg/wk. I was running only 6mg/day of aromasin.

I think that AI dosage was way to weak for me. Im starting to think I aromitise a lot and have high e2 or Im not a responder to aromasin.

Anyway Ive been running Letro 2.5mg/day for 2 weeks and the gyno is still tender. Im getting clicky joints and hips though (no major joint pain yet though) Its like I have the low e2 symtoms but the gyno is still tender. It took me 2 weeks of running it too before i got low e2 sysmtoms. Most people here say letro crashes them in a few days?

Anyway my questions is should i stay on test c for the remaining 2 weeks? Or should I jump off asap and start pct? Im thinking the test injections are not letting the flareup calm down but idk.

Also Ive heard that test c causes more aromitizing and gyno then test e...anyone ever hear the same?

Great news. Update in case someone ever searchs or googles this topic.

Right after i stopped injections of tect c the swelling and tenderness went away. Seems like the the test c was aromitising so much that even though i was on tons of ai it was still feeding the gland/gyno lump.

So gyno activity stopped. Nipple is still slightly puffy though (only i can notice, noone would prob look twice at it)

But according to my research slightly puffy nipples is kinda common during puberty and cycles and they usually correct themselves months after hormones level out. Im also gonna do a nolvadex cycle after pct to try and help the process/shrink the gland or gyno lump as small as possible.

Anyway which me luck on my pct and pray for me that i dont get an estrogen rebound. Thanks for the help bros

Do a proper treatment with Raloxifene. Make sure its pharm grade...

Hey bro if your taking test c and you dont want your IGF-1 levels to suffer stick with clomid or aromasin while on. As far as your gyno right now nolvadex is probably your best bet since it doesnt reduce the amount of estrogen but it binds to the receptors in the breast area. Someone who has experience should be able to give you a dose. Letro is suppose to be far more powerful and aromasin attacks the conversion by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme so there is less estrogen in the entire body.

I'm dealing with a random gyno flare up too... But WELL after the fact of a completed cycle and pct protocol months back. Strangest shit...

Anyhow, I've always used letro - but now that I've got an excuse to play Dr. Frankenstein on myself, I'm curious if anyone out there has had good results in reducing / eliminating gyno from stane?

Good luck brotha, I'm in the same boat!

There are multiple pathways to gyno, aromotase isnt the only way estrogen is produced, high prolactin from fucked up enzymes will cause gyno even with an AI like letro. Reason being dht converts to 3 beta diol(estrogen) a powerful estrogen via multiple enzymes which dont include aromoatose. So a powerful serm like ralox is more effective. Residual aromotase is even more effective for longterm gyno flares. Letro block 98% aromotase right. But it only blocks 1% of residual aromotase. So if you have gyno randomaly then your enzymes are messed up. Your right on formastane for gyno flares because it fixes the longterm problem. It blocks 90% of estro and 8% of residual estro buildup.

That link below shows how dht converts to estro
(3 beta diol)

Letro is bunk if your running just test and you get gyno man. I would get off cycle and hop on an AI(letro) and a SERM(ralox, nolva) till gyno disappears, good luck.

Yea I was on aromasin the first 8weeks and i think it was bunk. The source went down recently too. My letro and pct stuff is from a diff source who has a very good reputation. Maybe ill just stay on for one more week to blast some hcg then start pct. Thanks for the reply
