Question about ar-r Liquidstane & imptotency

[Trying-Hard]

I am on my first cycle, 500mg/wk of test Cyp. I am in week 4. I have been taking .25 mg of Arimidex EOD starting from first pin and have recently ordered ar-r Liquidstane given all the praise I heard about it from the vets on this forum over the a-dex. Today was my first dose of it instead of the Arimidex. I took / will be taking it at 12.5mg EOD. My questions are:

1) My ar-r liquidstane has a foamy/powder like particles at the bottom/top of it. Is this normal?

2) Does an AI cause impotency? My libido is through the roof like you won't believe, but it seems like while I can get an erection, it is mild and not full blown. Could it be that the Arimidex caused this? Keep in mind that I am on 1mg propecia but have been for years and never had a problem with erections or any other sexual matters for 5+ years.

Thanks all for any help in advanced.

If you can't get wood your e2 might be to low. Or it can be too high. Do you still get mourning wood? Lack of mourning wood implies that your e2 is too low.

I do get wood, but it is not a full blown erection. It is strange. Even when I am having sex with my wife I get a 50% erection.

So this could be caused by estrogen being too low? Should I drop the dosage of the AI?

Also, I am starting HCG today so if my estrogen levels are indeed low, then maybe the HCG will help?

1- Exemestane is a suspension not a solution so it will seperate..you need to shake the hell out of it ..if need be use something to break the clumps p then shake it regularly. Exemestane is particulry prone to this but it fine to use.
2- Low e signs for me are sore joints. I feel it big time.
Without bloodwork this is hit or miss. you could lower it and see if it helps or hurts then adjust from there. I wash i had better option for you (if bloodwork isnt an option)

Jimmy,

1) Ok, so you are saying this foamy like stuff that is present in the L-stane is normal I am assuming. I was worried that I got sent some out of date product or something like that. I will be sure to shake it very well before use.

2) I am now ditching the adex and starting l-stane, so I guess what I will do is keep the ldex at 12.5mg EOD and then in a week or so see where I am at. If I still find myself having troubles getting a full blown erection, I will get blood work done. But my question is, what should I test for? Just estrogen levels?

Thanks bro.

first off its liquid stane you have right? exemestane? If so that what i would do yes.
When you get blood work (if you need too) ask for an exetnded male hormone panel . This will give you all the info you could possibly need.

Sorry for the confusion. Correct, I got Liquid stane, NOT l-dex.

As far as blood work, ok, will do. Thanks.
