Conflicting info on adex
ad
Hey all..
Midway through my first test c cycle @ 500/wk. i originally had been taking adex 0.5eod but have tapered it and stopped it altogether 5d ago. I have no gyno, no nip soreness, no bloat.
I read what I can about AI and reviews are mixed at best. Some people say 0.5eod, some say 0.25 every 3 days, some say hold off unless having sides.. Some say you will crash without labs, some say go by morning wood/libido.
Any comments by vets with more experiance would be appreciated.

Thanks everyone.. Im going to have labs drawn tomorrow. I appreciate all of your patience and help.
AnonPagan I made the same mistake as you, I just got convinced that I had beaten my estro in to the dirt, so I stopped my AI . That was wrong ! I took a blood test and my estro had shot way up. Its really really hard to do this by "the seat of your pants " .
There is no set dose because 0.5eod might work for you but not for others. Generally 0.25-0.5 e3d or eod is typical dosing.
Arimidex continues working for 2-3 days so you arent going to notice anything in 5 days since your only using test E. It takes a while for estrogen to build up.
Sounds like the adex was working fine why did you stop taking it?
I started the adex out of paranoia at the start of the cycle, then worried about oversuppression of estrogen. I may just wait a few more days and then get bloods checked and if all is well and no adverse sides might just wait on restarting the adex..
RustyhookerJ223 has it up above! If you get nervous ever...blood test will validate you own bodies reactions. Get best gains that way too
No need to worry bro, don't buy into all the myths you hear. Your not gonna have any estrogen problems. Obviously get bloods done but maybe try a lower adex dose. If you aren't getting creaky joints then your estrogen probably isn't too low. Of course there are other symptoms but the problem is high est and low est symptoms are often similar and blood test is the best way to know.
Try 0.25mg every other day or every three days that should be more than enough unless you are overly sensitive.
RustyhookerBlood tests and Doss answered correctly. .5eod is the max amout taken before you switch to aromasin or letro for full estro fight. Normal start doses .25e3d IF.....IF Needed. Blood test is the best.
High five Doss!

TONYPERKIS.5 eod or .25 ed, but be careful with adex the estrogen rebounds in pct will be hardcore..if i were you i would order some aromasin!
Here's some facts for you:

I'm pretty sure you're going to need it. The .5 eod you were doing looks like a good place to be to me with your 500 mg/week - but we are all different. The thing to do when you are wondering is to get your estro blood levels tested and adjust accordinglhy. Check out privatemdlabs.com. The best way to know is through the blood testing until you set up a history for yourself to follow.
Do you think that maybe the reason you have no sides is because you were running adex?
I don't know why you would stop halfway through cycle but to me a better approach is to drop dose in half, or add a day between doses if you can't 1/4 a pill.
Something else to consider I never get bacne unless I have an estrogen rebound and it sounds like you may be bringing one on.
Good luck, it always seems easier to me to keep sides away than to get rid of them once they show.
fully agree, prevention is much better than treating problems after they are present. I am the same way in regards to estro and acne, if I miss or f up my ai dose, I see it on my shoulders basically the next day.
