[supraman]

for christ sake i got a full 6 pack, im on test e week 9 anavar 60mg daily diets is in check, cardio is there BUT my water intake is not that strong and AI usage is not as often BUT WHY IS MY BODY cut but not my face?? this is awful... i swear i look like a whole different person, my eyelids are drooping for the love of god. what can I do? I might just end this sh*t if its the cycle.

[yamahaguitarguy]

having the same probem, i believe it is your estrogen is too high. Make sure you are strict with your AI dosage

[stpete]

What is your diet like? And your AI? You were very vague on dosage and frequency.

[cherrydrpepper]

Have you cut your salt intake to zero or near there yet. Also how much dairy (milk/yogurt) are you consuming?

[austinite]

Did this happen suddenly? Or has it been like this?

[supraman]

will cheating for a few days cause this much of water retention EXCLUSIVE to my face???? i mean id get if it was everyhwere but just my face is whats driving my nuts.

My diet is clean, i dont have a set diet but I eat very low simple sugar foods and only good fats. I used aromasin 12.5mg yesterday to see if i noticed a difference today but didn't..

this happened all in a weeks time

[warmouth]

How often are you using the AI?

^^^You've already answered your own question. Drink more water and take your AI regularly so you can find the proper dose for you and the cycle you're on.

The first place I retain extra water is also in my face and is an immediate sign i need to up my AI.

when do you stop? what if my joints start to get achy and my face is still bloated?

i take it once a week... should i start taking it everyday until i hoefully see a difference?

If you take it everyday you will have joint pain, I would take all the advice above.

[Sgt. Hartman]

Which ai are you taking and at what dose?

[supraman]

i started off taking 12.5 mg everyday for like just under 3 weeks. My joints were incredibly achy, I felt crappy and had no energy or libido. I stopped for about a week and this reversed. Then I supposed was the time my face bloated but im not so sure.

I did get a new topical hairloss product that i started to use around the time but i really doubt it could do that so fast as I have used a minoxidil product at the same strength, its just a different product with the following ingredients:
Minoxidil 15%, Azelaic Acid 1.5%, Progesterone 0.25%, Tretinoin 0.025%, Hydrocortisone 0.1%, Finasteride 0.1%

All of which are actually supposed to do the opposite on the skin (except minoxidil 15% but again i have used this for over a year and never happened) and even the progesterone is great for skin. Could it indeed be this product? I have stopped this for about 4 days now and nothing is really improving although my face can look better various times in the day to lead me to think it really might be my water intake...

what do you guys think, sorry it seems i might have threw in a curve ball now im just reallly bugging out its affecting my life

[Phased]

For a Test E cycle and Anavar , 12.5mg ED of Aromasin ED is overkill. You went from 12.5mg ED to 12.5mg once a week. This is probably the reason you body is having these reactions. Try cutting it back to 12.5mg 3 times a week.

soo EOD?

[Phased]

Yes EOD is fine, if you are still having problems try 3 times a week
Monday-Wed-Friday-Sunday-Tues-Thursday-Saturday repeat

[supraman]

ok thanks a lot, so then its probably not the topical stuff I was using? I do sleep on my right side and noticed my right was more droopy aka the solution mighta seeped onto my pillow and on my face. honestly im thinking of millions of possiblities thanks a lot guys seriously, made me feel way better for now lol

[Sgt. Hartman]

I agree with Phased. Taking exemestane once a week probably isn't elevating your plasma levels enough to do anything so you might as well not be running it at all......

[supraman]

^thanks.. lets say i do it EOD for a few times and on the 3rd time, i feel really achy jjoints...what should I do then? keep adjusting? thanks guys

[Sgt. Hartman]

Cut it in half but i doubt you'll need to.

[supraman]

i took the aromasin 2 days ago at 12.5mg and today post workout i have some minor joint pain. If I take it tonight (EOD), i have a feeling im going to be really hurting tomorrow, along with no libido and lethargy the works. I will report back tomorrow but the bloat is still there.

Will doing some intense cardio sweat out the water along with low sodium diet now that my estrogen has been lowered (i wont regain the retention)? thanks guys

[OnTheSauce]

hahaha i have the same issue. i just dont worry about it. face always gets bloated (sure the hgh isnt helping).

[supraman]

hi guys so i have been doing the EOD and its def getting better but not like I was before... is it just going to take some time? Should I do more cardio because I havent had a chance to do any recently. Does anyone else get puffy eyelids when you get bloat? I just want to make sure its nothing else, ya know? Man I was looking at my absolute best until this, now i feel like i have more forehead rolls when I raise my eyebrows, puffy brow lines, etc. help guys
