    Glad you enjoyed it and hoped it helped.

    Did you check out Jimmy's thread at the bottom of the Article? Very informative as well.

    Hey mickey just a quick question, if im on cycle(which i'm not) for ex. Test E which is a long ester how would you suggest to use anastrozole? I mean start it on week 1? Or maybe week 2 or 3?

    Thanks!!

    Adex works fairly fast so if you wanted to begin wk 2 when using a long ester, you could.

    That's what I did using Test-E on my current cycle. It seems to have worked just fine, I had zero issues by waiting.
    I am using Anastrozole though.

    Mickey,

    Any time in particular is best to take Adex? I just started a prop/var cycle and I am pinning prop EOD at night time (around 10:30-11 p.m.). I am taking adex .5 ed (i am very sensetive to E2). Is there a better time in the day to take the Adex or does it not matter? Thanks.

    There are no known advantages with this protocol. Just make sure you take it approximately the same time very day. You dont have to be exact but the more uniform your dosing protocol, the more stable your serum levels will be.

    Thanks Mickey. Here is a bump...

    I am now on adex .5 ed and I will get BW in 6 weeks to see where my E2 levels are at.

    Mickey, another question for ya...

    I am very sensetive to E2 and right now I am taking adex .5ed, but knowing the half life of Adex is basically 2 days, is it useless to take it ed?

    No certainly not. In fact, you answered your own question. The half life of Adex is almost two days, so ED protocol is fine. It will only build up so much then plateau. Im sensitive like you and require similar AI protocols.

    Keep a close eye on how youre feeling. You don't want to tank your E2.

    Thanks bro! and I will most definitely let you (everyone) know BW results in 6 weeks. I hope it's not as high as last cycle...

    If I'm taking 12.50 eod of stane would it be safe to say that it could be taken ED? Also Adex would be EOD at same dose or would you recommend at 25mg.

    Both of these questions are clearly covered on the first page. Did you bother to read the article bro?

    (and please pay attention to any decimals, like the one before Adex .25mg - thats DECIMAL twenty five milligrams = 1/4 of a milligram)

    Sorry if i missed it somwhere...So it's 12.5 mg of exemestane ED. But is the dose weight dependent? Is it going to be the same dose for a 150 lbs guy and for 250lbs guy?

    So did Mickey really get banned, arguing with Marcus I assume, or is he just on a time out?

    It's not technically weight dependent dosing, but bc fat contains the aromatase enzyme ppl with more body fat may require higher doses of AI. Also, your AI dose needs to be proportional to the amount of aromatizable AAS you take. Last thing that needs to be considered is how sensitive your body is to AI's. I know of ppl who based on this thread, started their recent cycle with aromasin 12.5 to 25mg ed. They were all fine the first week but bc the effects of aromasin are accumulate, as it irreversibly inhibits the aromatase enzyme, many of them started to suffer low estrogen sides by week 2. And bc it irreversibly inhibits, the side effects linger for about a week until you make more aromatase and aromasin levels decline.

    While I'm not opposed to the ed dosing of aromasin, I don't think it's necessary. You don't need stable blood levels of aromasin for effective estrogen control. The goal of AI therapy while on cycle is stable levels of estrogen, within a proper range, which can be achieved by relatively stable and decreased levels of aromatase. This can be achieved by intermittent dosing of aromasin bc, again, it irreversibly inhibits aromatase. I also think 12.5mg ed is too high for some ppl, for instance those with low body fat taking test 500mg weekly. Taking 6.25mg (approx) may be cumbersome, especially if taking a tablet which comes in 25mg. So for beginner cycles with low body fat I think that 12.5mg eod will get the job done best. You can always increase your dose but once you start suffering sides of too much aromasin (low E) those sides will persist for at least a week and they're not fun.

    If you're desperate to overcome the sides from too much aromasin, you can always take an additional high dose of aromatizable AAS but it's a pretty bad idea for so many reasons.

    There's a thread about it but it seems to be about anything else at this point. Just search and you'll easily find it. It started on topic but then went in every other direction possible.

    I'm using 12.5 Exemestane daily, based on this and a couple other threads. Do you think that is too much as well, or do you only feel that way with Aromasin ?

    Which are?
    I'm nearing the end of a Test/Tren cycle, 125mg Test-E / Wk., 438mg Tren-A / wk. Nothing bad is happening, but I'm definitely trying new things with this cycle, so I'm paranoid LOL! Thus far I'm pretty happpy with my results.
