Proviron Vs. Arimidex

**GrandmasterSpank** · 01-02-2009, 09:57 AM

I'm interested in using Proviron in my next cycle, mainly as an AI, but secondly for the additional benefits it has to offer.

Basically, just wondering how the typical dosage of Proviron (25-50mg p/d) would stand up to the typical dosage of Arimidex (.25mg p/d) as a On-Cyle AI.

Would their effectiveness be comparative? Is Prov an effective AI?

Study quotes are good, but would particularly like to hear from bros who've used ProV.

Cheers y'all!

never used proV, but i did use a-dex throughout my entire cycle at .25mg ED and had great results with no sides and little water retention. i know youde like to hear from guys who've used proV; but thats my .02$ on arimidex ; stuff works good

Cheers vishus. All experiences are welcome, with ProV and/or Adex, as I've not used either yet! :-)

Another thing I suppose is the costs. Arimidex is cheaper to use on a day2day basis than ProV. So I'm left wondering if ProV's worth forking a little extra on or not...

Im gyno prone and have taken up to 100mg of proviron ED. I still had to take an AI. The proviron did not seem to help enough with my gyno. .25 mg adex Ed is working good right now.

Same here.

Proviron even at 50-75mg/ED still didnt keep of water and I still got gyno. Its not a drug that should be used primarilly for estrogenic sides IMHO.

For PCT, yes (25-50mg/ED), but that all.

Arimidex at 0.5mg/EOD is perfect.

I used prov as well in my last cyle, and in my current PCT. In the cyle I have to use ldex to keep the acne under control. I tried to get off of the ldex last cycle and the acne popped up again quick. I really didn;t notice a difference with the prov, I only used it because it is suppoed to free up more test.

I've ran it several times experimenting from 50-150mg/ED and it really functioned almost exactly similar to cialis, but was impossible to tell if it was help increase free-test circulation.

I've never done any bloodwork comparisons that show free test circulation with/without proviron as I've never ran the same cycle twice in a row, but the libido effects are easily felt for me.

The other bros that mention they've still needed more protection are correct...Proviron isn't strong enough on its own to prevent estrogenic sides even in super high dosages. I wouldn't trust it to yield similar results to a modest dosage of Arimidex as they are two different classes of drugs.

I think you could get away with 100mg/ED for a cycle of 500mg/wk of a long estered Testosterone , but the second you add in a 19-nor you're asking for problems.

It has its place, but you could do better cost/benefit wise.

Thanks everyone for your input, appreciate it.

I may be adding Deca (a 19-nor) into my next Test based cycle, so Arimidex seems the best option for On-cycle AI if I have to go with only one. Cheers!
