    Nolva or aromasin instead of Adex?

    So I'm on a regimen of about 125mg/wk test e and I haven't had blood work done yet but was thinking, should I be taking something to keep my e2 levels in check? Like something e3d or so?

    I've read a lot that Adex is recommended, but would nolva or aomasin suffice?

    thanks

    adex is prefered because it blocks the T:E conversion process. do you have symptoms of high E2? if not, you should get some bloodwork done to determine if you need adex, some guys don't need it.

    Both are AI's...

    Aromasin is easier on your lipids and liver.

    It also stimulates some LH production and lowers SBHG.

    My skin looks much better on it also..less acne and not as oily.

    I been on Aromasin here and a quarter of a tablet a day dropped me down from about 60 to 17 or something like that. I like the idea that it doesn't block it but rather reduces it.

    thanks for all the replies, guys.

    It seems that the first thing I need to do is get blood work done. Because I don't have the cash for it right now (in college), I might just try 10mg eod or e3d of aromasin and see if I see a difference in my erections. This thread is sparked by the fact that I feel like my erections aren't as full as normal, and I am quite moody lately. Also, I got a bit lazy with my weekly shots and have been on track steadily for only the last two weeks, so its possible that my levels are indeed a little out of whack

    any more opinions? They are valued.

    i would say yes....being lazy in general OR lazy with your shots i guess that means u skipped some? ...would / could cause levels to be OFF..
    and i guess to understand more...how long have u had the ed symptoms and how long u been on the 125mg of test, etc. etc... like never had ed probs at all b4?
