    Aromasin vs Arimidex (Exemestane vs Anastrozole)

    I have recently found this statement, which made me think again on my choice of AI. Presently, ready for my next cycle I have on hand Arimidex.
    What do you guys think? Those who tried both of them, preferably.

    "Arimidex is not very well suited to men cycling, since it has a poor profile for lowering E2 in men and because it is competitive it will cause a rebound when you stop as it competes and leaves the aromatase alive; so when you come off you get a flood of estrogen or rebound as its known. You should use Aromasin as it is not copetitive and and is better at inhibiting E2.

    Your mortal enemy as a man is high levels of estrogen. It causes an increase in fat, high blood pressure, prostate enlargement and cancer, acne, mood swings (roid rage), and a host of other long term problems.

    I tried Letro and found it shuts me down to hard this could be dose dependant but did not like the way it made me feel so I have used Aromasin with great results."

    I use Aromasin 10mg/ED or EOD on cycle. I've tried Arimidex, but prefer Aromasin.

    The rebound from steoridal AI's is possible, yes.

    Arimidex seems to be better at lowering estrogen in females, than males.

    I love to use exemestane before and during cycle, I found that it has worked best for me. Helps me keep gyno issues under control.

    Aromasin isnt as harsh on the lipid profile either. They both work well IMO less sides with aromasin though.

    It seems like those who a run a simple cycle with, let's say 500 mg test en a week, can cope with 25 mg of exemestane ed or eod while on cycle.

    But what about those who reach 1 g a week of test?
    Should they double the AI dose, like 50 mg ed or eod to feel the real benefits?

    Pesonally, I wouldnt even bother with an AI at 500mg a wk unless you know you will need it(of course have one on hand- cause I can hear the parrots squaking already). 25mg ED of exemestane ED would prob be too much for 500 mg of test, prob be plenty for 1g 12.5 mg of aromasin EOD on cycle will keep me dry as a bone and no nipple problems what so ever and I definatly run more than 500mg of test ED LOL

    EDIT: I usually just run .25mg of adex eod works like a charm as long as I dont go nutts with the dex im G2G

    I see your point but my concern is about my last bw which showed estradiol at 150!!! and I am running test susp @ 80 mg ed, even went to 90 mg.
    So, almost 1 g a week of a long ester.
    http://forums.steroid.com/showthread.php?t=428028

    The problem is I feel tired after my injection, in the morning especially, and trying to lower the estrogens to get rid of this lethargy (no gyno issue, no bloating).
    Took exemestane @ 12.5 mg ed and saw no results, so bumped to 25 mg ed and saw no results, so reduced the test susp to 60 mg ed and exemestane 30' before the injection and it seemed better but this tiredness starts to bother a lot!!!

    Any ideas?
