so by active life does that mean how long it takes to breaks down? So in 10 days all the test will have been broken down to estrogen? Sorry just a lil confused

No. thats just how long the stuff stays in your system. Some of it will bind to the AR receptors and build muscle. Some will be converted into estrogen. There's no time frame for this. It all depends on the individual and how much aromatase their body produces.

I think kick has pretty much hit the nail on the head.

Everyone is different, and there a lot of vaiables to take into consideration..

They include :-

How much product you put in your system - Obviously if you put a a higher dose into your body there's the chance there will be more of an excess which has potential to convert

How the individuals body reacts - Some guys are very lucky and there system doesn't aromatize test easily, so they end up with more free test rather than estrogen

How fresh / saturated receptors already are - This may speed up or delay the process

If an AI or a SERM is being used - This one being obvious due to the nature of these compounds.

Half life / active life of compound - Obviously the longer the compound hangs around the slightly higher chance it might aromatize.

This is why AI's and SERM's should only be taken on cycle once you understand how your body reacts, as everyone is different.

Check out this article my Anthony Roberts (Posted by Merc), there's some good points which you might be interested in.

Also remember alcohol can actually help in the process of aromatization, which is one of the very good reasons not to drink on cycle.

Hence why men who drink a lot hold water and look puffy, and tend to get man boobs (its not just from the empty calories)

Estrogen can be a handy tool while trying to bulk and make gains, but everyone's threshold of where it changes from helpful to a hindrance is different (plus then effected by the reasons in my post above)

Also check out this other article by Merc on how estrogen can be used in our favour.
