Arimidex by itself?

**JuicedUp1328** · 04-12-2006, 01:53 PM

I've seen a few threads on adex, wondered if people ever use this shit by itself? Heard it raised your natty test, and cut down on water weight, would this be good to use solo as a way to add a little lean mass and cut fat?

Using Arimidex alone will increase testosterone production. Because it will lower estrogen-levels, which will result in LH producing more Testosterone .

The hypotalamus/pituitary will basically be fooled, and think it have to produce more Testosterone, so estrogen can get back to normal levels.

It will be equivalent to shoting 100mgs of test E per week. This is actually higher than normal test levels, so yes, it will help some, and given it doesnt shut you down, it might be able to be used indefinately

really? this seems interesting

I beg to differ.

It will temporarily increase test imo.

There will be resultant negative HPTA feedback and eventually suppression.

similar to if you were running a low dose of a non-aromatising steroid

I believe papi93 has done a a-dex only run... i'm not sure what his feedback was. Someone hit him with a pm with a link to this thread

i know it does elevate test levels, but i believe it would become less effective the longer you use it just as nark said.

One of the guys I work with is running A-dex alone and he seem to think it is helping. He has been on it for about three weeks.

In elderly men with hypogonadism, arimidex elevated T levels by ~55% when taking 1mg two times per week.

i've heard the gains stop around week 8. the supplement forums has a lot of threads on this

You might as well try it doesnt seem like you will have anythign to lose......but i would think aromasin may be a better choice

I ran 0.5mg ED for 4 weeks. At this dose, it will nearly double test levels. It will not suppressive on recovery of natural test levels so you can use it after PCT to keep levels high. You cannot run this indefinitely, as your blood lipid profiles will take a turn for the worse. That's why I ran it after PCT so it would interfere with nolva working to improve blood lipids profiles, after a cycle. Blood lipid profiles are a concern, during PCT.

My libido did not decrease during the 4 weeks. For some, there is the possibility of that side effect. It actually helped libido and helped cut down on water retention. I have give AR's Liquidex a big thumbs up.

I discovered this use of arimidex at the recommendation of Bryan2, supplement guru. Thanks Bryan2.
