    I didnt know those drugs had those side effects but an AI would control any estrogen in the body and prevent gyno unless it is prolactin gyno they are talking about.

    You might be better off using nolvadex since it acts as an estrogen blocker at the estrogen receptor.

    An AI prevents the aromatization of testosterone into estrogen. I dont think that is what you need if you are not using testosterone.

    I should add that I'm assuming the gyno side effect is caused by estrogen.

    Good information guys I also forgot to mention Zoloft can cause gyno because of the extra serotonin that is released so I don't see how I can block that?

    I wouldn't worry about it. I've been on Zoloft for a couple years (anxiety), if I remember right from most of my classes most of these side only occur if using high doses. Btw I take 50mg ED

    I'm down to 50 mg every 3rd day. Basically off it now.
