    High dose Letro hurting gains?

    I had some mild puffyness/pre-gyno issues so I got some Letro from my Doc. I followed instructions in C Bino's Gyno guide and am at 2.5mg ED. The symptoms have just about gone...no more puffy nips.

    Is it Normal for there to be a firmer area (instead of paper thin skin) around the areola? IF you grab down into the tissue? OR...does the gland get so small you can't feel it? It doesn't feel inflamed...but there is something there on each one. Maybe I'm just paranoid?

    I'm 3 wks into my cycle and sex drive is wayyyyy up on the Letro...about DOUBLE what it was! I'm surprised. Anyway....I don't want to inhibit my gains as my Test E will be kicking soon...so I want to taper the Letro Down ASAP..

    INPUT?

    I dont think it will effect gains enough to notice anything. People say it will but I dont have any proff of that. I run it every cycle and still get great results.

    might be proned to injury more using it since takes most estrogen out of the body, so i would properly warm up more than usual for heavy lifts.

    Hmmm...alright. I'm at 2.5mg ED though...which is high. I wanted to taper down to .25mg ED to allow some of the estrogen to come back around 5-6wks when the Test E kicks in. I don't think it's hurting the Tren A right now though.

    C'Bino, sorry to hijack, but how much do you take during your cycle?

    i get gyno just looking at test and one squert (0.1mg) ed is enough to keep it away for me.

    i did go upto 1mg once to reverse it and it worked to some degree but ive had it since puberty so im awaiting surgery.

    but in the meantime, 0.1mgs is deffo enough for me

    Letro shoudnt inhibit gains imo. I have gained between cycles by using nothing but letro b/c of the increase I got in T-levels from it.

    Testosterone builds muscle, not estrogen...Aromatase is not the only source to estrogen anyway, so its impossible to shut doen E completely with letro or any other AI .

    So is it normal to feel the gland behind the nip? I never felt myself up before I had sensitive and puffy nips so i'm not sure if my gyno is gone? doesn't hurt or itch and no puffyness..but I feel SOMETHING...might be normal.

    On a positiive note...sex drive is sky high...acne is cleared up, BUT face, lips, and hair are dry...and my nose bleeds some when I blow it...eyes hurt...and my knees and shoulders hurt. this is day 15 at 2,5mg

    Gyno cant hurt you, so its not gonna do anything if you have some. So if you have a small lump then you can keep trying to get rid of it, if it doesnt bother you at all, you cant see it or notice it and its not sensitive then really there is no problem.

    Most people get it in Liquid form. You can get it in pills (femara brand) but they tend to be expensive unless your doc will prescribe them.
