ok so thats the good thing about it but i dont understand if letro is a anti-aromatise why is there a rebound affect? an if i take Ldex to fight the rebound will that lower my igf-1 or just not affect it??

Going to start IGF tuesday, last dose of 50mg clomid was friday, should I be all set?
taper off the letro slowly to avoid the rebound effect.Quote:
