    week 4 test e, labido is down...

    First cycle, age 28, test e, 250mg x2 tues / fri. Started exemestane at 12.5 eod at beginning of cycle. Labido went up noticeably through week 3, then crashed. Thought estro might be too low, stopped exem for a week, now on week 4, still sex drive is crashed. Any ideas? Dont feel like im holding much water, starting too feel good in the gym, noticing nice size in my arms and quads. But whats up with the sex drive?? Why would it be down?

    Are you taking the Stane because you are prone to sides?

    Is it advisable to take ai from day one? or half way through the cycle? I don't assume you should talk the ai until your libido is down, which in case you're prone, I don't think would occur right at the beginning of the cycle.

    What are your stats? I prefer not to run an ai on cycle unless sides arise. If you drive your estro to low it could reduce sex drive.

    Im 5'6 about 175. Maybe 16to18% bf not sure exactly. What you think i should do? How long does it take estro to return if the stane made it too low?

    I actually just got a sinus infection so energy is down, probably due to that. Just got meds so i should be good in a few days.

    in the absence of blood work to confirm anything, i'd drop the AI, eat lots of veggies and make sure i was in hibernation mode at night. should be right as rain within a week.

    its normal for libido to even out after a few weeks. is the test in amp form or vial, have you recently started a new batch or bottle if its vial? 12.mg stane isnt a massive amount of AI tbh and id be surprised if it wiped out all your estro. as said, hard to say without bloods

    .125mg of arimidex e3d knocks my dick in the dirt. everyone is a bit different, impossible to say anything definitively without blood work.

    yes and no. where i live it is quite difficult to have "sophisticated" blood work done, and the estradiol reading came back with no parameters, just a number. i had it done at the end of my 4th week, which meant 4 straight weeks of dbol at 25mg daily and 250mg test e twice weekly so the highest point then for estradiol was 96. now that i'm off dbol and using only test e (and considering that this blood work here requires a 2 week waiting period) i will assume that that number has fallen though impossible to say how much, and have dropped the AI during my cycle as unnecessary.

    would still be a good idea to use one and get bloods midway through, even if you dont display estro symptoms you can still be high in it and prolonged raised estro isnt healthy in men at all.
