I'm not worried about some the test turning into estrogen, I have plenty of test (and other androgens in the cycle), I'm upping it up to a gram or more. and I'm not preventing that test from converting to E either cause I want the E. thats one situation where I have no worry if test turns into estrogen.
NOW a different situation. lets say I'm not running more powerful androgens and anabolics on top of my test and I'm only using test for my cycle or test as my base / main compound. AND I'm running a lower dose, like 400mg. in this situation I may run an AI to keep that test from being converted cause I need all the test I can get, I may run a DHT blocker as well , and I'll probably throw in some Proviron to take care of SHBG so I get even more free test to utilize. I can't spare the precious test from being converted or being bound up by SHBG.
really depends on the situation. I don't have 'one way' and one way only of doing things.. there are no 'have to' ways imo. its all what works for the given situation and person.
