Hi guys, I’m Alex. Been lifting for about 10 years, around 13-15% BF, 6ft 2, 210lbs.
I’m 7 weeks into my 1st cycle, decen strength and weight increases. Been following austinite's sticky (500mg Test E + 500ui HCG per week with 0.25mg Arimidex EOD) Everything pharma grade froma good source.

FREE - TESTOSTERONE (CALCULATED)*2.30 nmol/L 0.30 - 1.00
SEX HORMONE BINDING GLOB *9.00 nmol/L 16.00 - 55.00
17 - BETA OESTRADIOL 49.80 pmol/L 0.00 - 191.99
LUTEINISING HORMONE *<0.100 IU/L 1.70 - 8.60

The thing is - libido has dropped quite a bit after about 4-5weeks. From being horny as a teenager to just "moderate" and quite below pre-cycle levels. It varies through the week. I also noticed some testicle shrinking (again, varies during the week).

Should I increase my AI dose to 0.50mg?
