    How many hours of a "tingling" nipple warrants a crisis?

    Okay ... I know it's pitiful. But, early detection is key ... right?


    But seriously - I added .5mg of Letro ... should that be adequate?

    Thanks

    tingling....? no pain - no puffyness - no change in size at all?

    could be paranoia on your part but the addition of letro should be fine

    Thanks for the paranoia bit (honestly). You're probably right. I'll chill - is .5 enough to supress any possible progression?

    An effective dose of Letrozole is .25-.5mg/day but be forewarned, if you go over that amount, it can kill your sex drive. Also worth noting is that there's a rebound effect on your estrogen when you come off Letrozol

    An effective dose of letrozole is as low as 100mcgs/day.

    Thats a misconception....the rebound effect actually occurs while you are on it, not when you come off it.

    Use of ultrasensitive recombinant cell bioassay to measure estrogen levels in women with breast cancer receiving the aromatase inhibitor, letrozole .

    Klein KO, Demers LM, Santner SJ, Baron J, Cutler GB Jr, Santen RJ.

    Children's Hospital of Orange County, California 92668, USA.

    The development of well tolerated, potent, specific, and nontoxic aromatase inhibitors for the treatment of postmenopausal women with estrogen-dependent breast cancer has been a major goal of recent studies. The third generation inhibitors now under investigation are nearly 10,000-fold more potent than first generation compounds. Currently available RIAs for plasma estradiol lack sufficient sensitivity to measure levels during aromatase inhibition and, thus, to assess drug potency precisely. The availability of an ultrasensitive bioassay for estradiol provided the opportunity to accurately assess the potency of a new third generation triazole aromatase inhibitor, letrozole (CGS 20267). We used this assay to measure estradiol levels in 14 women with metastatic breast cancer given letrozole at doses of 100 micrograms to 5.0 mg/day over a 12-week period. The lack of differences between doses and sampling times allowed pooling of data. Basal estradiol levels of 7.2 +/- 1.9 pmol/L (mean +/- SEM, 1.95 +/- 0.52 pg/mL) fell to 0.26 +/- 0.11 pmol/L (0.07 +/- 0.03 pg/mL) during the first 6 weeks of therapy and to 0.48 +/- 0.18 pmol/L (0.13 +/- 0.05 pg/mL) during the second 6 weeks of therapy. Although plasma estradiol levels measured by RIA were significantly correlated with levels measured by bioassay (r = 0.79; P < 0.01), the degree of suppression assessed by the bioassay (95 +/- 2% after 6 weeks) was greater than that determined by the RIA (81 +/- 4%), presumably due to improved ability to measure very low estradiol levels. We conclude that plasma estradiol is suppressed by letrozole to lower levels than previously observed, with equivalent suppression at all doses studied. A slight, although not statistically significant, rebound in estradiol levels occurs during the second 6 weeks of therapy compared to the first 6 weeks. Maximum inhibition of aromatase is achieved at letrozole doses as low as 100 micrograms.

    big r has been quoting studies for his arguements with little real world experience using AAS, and meso is calling him out on it, putting that line in a ton of threads.

    Thanks for the info guys ... the tingling subsided. I think it was just the ramp up time of Letro ... I'm feeling fine now.

    Auto suggestive means... lol btw ... that you kinda created the effect by thinking about it...

    The Letro worked for me. I just took a few days to get going.

    I think you should check out the 50-60mg ED for a while... it's got GREAT effects so far ... and I haven't been a raging asshole like I thought I might be. Actually, I've been quite tame! Which I'm ULTRA pleased to say (and so are my friends). I mean, I'm normally an @$$hole, but I've been pretty mellow!

    Well, thats a good point - but seeing as I'll be switching to Nolva/Prop/Finasteride my last 4 weeks (or maybe more) I should have estrogen in check during the time that the Letro is clearing.... once I finish that last leg of my cycle - I'll be entering PCT, which will have Nolva/Clomid in it... I'd assume those will cover the potential rebound periods, no?

    Nope. I'm feeling okay with just the letro. Honestly, it feels weird taking a different pill or injection all day long. I just start to feel a little bit over the top with it. So, I'm just going to continue with my plan unless something seems to be a problem, then I will deal with it from there. I am taking dostinex tho.

    Bumped the dose ... this is the feeling I like - I know my shits working when my muscle's are dying to flex/contract ... like they're just waiting to do some work.

    I might get up to:

    100mg ED of Tren (currently it's at 75mg)
    150mg ED of Prop (current dosing)
    55mg ED OT (current dosing)
    15mg ED Var (it's mixed with the OT)
    Masteron 75mg ED (in about 3 days)
    HGH 4iu EOD (current - switched from ED)
    T3 75mcg ED (current)

    I'm on day 10 of the Tren ... and 17 of the cycle. I'm up about 10 pounds ... and with Letro in my system, I'm guessing it isn't water.

    I'm just wondering if my sides are going to increase from the Tren - so far, my mood is quite mild, and the ONLY side I have is the insomnia ... which I hear isn't dose dependant. I'm looking for Ambien, so when I find it, hopefully that will be recitified... all my friends have been sick - apparently there are 2 colds going around in my area ... and given Testosterones immunosuppressive nature - yeah, I got both of them (probably didn't help my immune system to have insomnia). The hunger is great - it's all day long pretty much.
