    do you mean on cycle or during pct?
    everyone is different, on cycle some need an ai where others may not.

    I find that usually only people with higher bf% need to use AI's. If you keep your bf sub 10% you should not need to use em unless of course you have developed gyno in your past (puberty, previous cycles) and need to keep the aromatization under control

    i'm not sure if it's people with current higher bf% or people that had them sometime during their life

    my reasoning being that fat cells never go away(without surgery), and since the aromatase receptor is housed in adipose tissue it could also be housed on a fat cell, so the more fat cells the more possible aromatase receptors

    just a theory anyway

    +1. If you don't know how your body will react it's best to have the ancillaries on hand just in case

    i was extremely obese as a kid and because of that i notice that i have to be at a very low bf% to look the same as someone at a higher bf% because of the increased number of fat cells i have(sad but true, lol) so that just sparked some thought
