    Question EQ vs Test Aromatization to estrogen?

    I have read that EQ Aromatizes at 50% the rate of testosterone .

    Does this mean that 500mg of EQ will Increase estrogen as much as 250mg of Testosterone would?

    Please Help!

    Everybody's responses differently to the effect of aromatisation so one person might not have any Estrogen issues on the above dose were as another might have as long as you use an AI you should avoid and prevent Estrogen high estimate sides.

    Well I guess if you was using just EQ then yes but seen as though that's not the correct practice and using it with test is, say 250mg test to 500mg EQ your body will Aromatise both making total level of estrogen higher..

    To be more exact for you guys
    500mg of test/week
    800mg of EQ/week

    This would convert to estrogen about as much as 900mg of test/week?

    Yes. the aromatisation rate would be high and AI would definitely be a must have.

    If 800mg of eq/week and 500mg test/week= 900mg of test (in terms of estrogen conversation)
    How much adex would someone most likely need?

    Bloodwork would need to be done to be exact but .5 eod would be a good start

    I don't believe those numbers.
    The EQ aromatizes at 50% the rate of test has been thrown around for years.
    Haven't seen much studies backing that claim.

    It's like DBOL , some say it aromatizes to a high degree,
    but that doesn't seem to be the whole truth.
    It's more about what in aromatizes into: methyl-estradiol.

    As for EQ you can use these numbers as a rough estimate as I think they're more based on anecdotal evidence that anything,
    but what the actual conversion is,
    and if that will even be the same if running 500mg a week or 800mg a week is IMO debatable.

    If anyone has studies backing up the claim about 50% conversion I'd be all ears.
