for starters, a persons bf% will affect the amount of aromitization that occurs, as fat is where this process happens. also, some people are more prone than others to feminization symptoms (gyno n water retention).
when i started using gear, the guy i got them from didn't tell me anything about anti-e's. at the time i didn't know about pct either, but i was trying to research the best i could and was just lacking knowledgeable resources at the time.
as far as not using an anti-e back then, i never had any issues. i'd get real puffy in the face from the water retention, but never any gyno. my sex drive would drop for a bit after a cycle, but it was never anything that bad. all in all i did pretty good without any anti-e's or pct, but of course after learning about pct, it did help me recover quicker and i strongly advise everyone to use them pct.
it really just all depends on the person and how they react to this stuff. some people can get away with no anti-e's, some can't. regardless, i'd always advise them as pct. if you can get away without using anti-e's during cycle, go for it, but make sure to keep some letro or other strong anti-e on hand just in case those nips get sore.
