Switching from Aromasin to Arimidex on cycle

[Mrgilmore]

Hi guys,

I'm currently on week 7 of my cycle of 500mg of test-e (the first 4 weeks with dbol) and I'm using aromasin at 6.25mg ED.
I am planning to do a 14 to 16 weeks total and will not have enough aromasin, but I have plenty of arimidex left from my previous cycle, so I'd like to have some opinions on how to make the switch.
Things are really stable right now and I have absolutely no side effects, so I don't want to mess that up.

I was thinking of waiting 48 hours after taking the aromasin before taking the arimidex that I would begin at .25mg and continue at that dose EOD. I am taking the aromasin ED at 9pm, would do the same with the adex but EOD.

Or, should I get some more aromasin since it is going well with it ?

By reading some educationnal threads, it seems the aromasin is a bit superior.

Thnx for the help !

Beware of "educationnal threads."

Aromasin is no more effective than Anastrozole, usually costs more, and a study comparing the two showed that Aromasin caused more problems.

If you want to change, up to you.

[Mrgilmore]

Yeah I'll have to tchek that out, I saw that with aromasin there is a lot less chance to ''crash'' the E2 comparing to anastrozole, which can cause higher cholesterol...
I guess money wise it would be logical to go on with arimidex since I already have it.

Just switch to adex, you will be fine. .25 mgs eod should still be fine if not, .50 mgs e3d would be the next step.

If referring to some of the real old ones, then yes. The new ones by Austin and Jimmy, etc are top notch.

If they're really new, I must reread them. Noticed a thing or two int the ones I read that got me scratching my head.

Your only running 6.25 .mg???

[Mrgilmore]

Yeah, seems to be the perfect dose for me, even with the dbol at the beginning I had no sides at all.

Did you get blood work . You cwould probley run 25 a day and still not crash your e2

Then you should question them in those threads. May be interesting and worthwhile.

I know I could use 25mh ED without crashing the E2, but why would I up the dose if 6.25mg is enough? A lot of people are taking 12,5mg EOD, but I prefer to take it ED since it's halflife is shorter than anastrozole.
I dont do bloodworks this cycle (flamesuit on) but I know how my body react to high or low E2 because of bad management in previous cycle.

You are supposed to take it daily due to the short half life, that's correct. The guys who take it eod are flirting with disaster. Jimmyinkedup wrote up a nice thread a little while back that straightened us out with aromasin usage, your doing it right.

I def dropped the ball using lstane a few years back when the school of thought was eod dosing was ok. I developed gyno late in my cycle and it just so happens Jimmyinkedups thread came out so I was at least able to learn the cause. I use adex now only because I stockpiled some pharmgrade and finances. I feel they are both effective when dialed in properly which I feel can be probably the trickiest aspect of cycling especially if you are somewhat e2 sensitive.

I made the switch from aromasin to adex with no transition issues, you will be fine with how you plan to do it.

I agree that it's the most important part to a successful cycle(having that E2 in your sweetspot!

I started on Stane and since I've switched to a-dex as well and im much more balance(e2 seems so much more in check)... Pulling bloods in 3 wks so I'll post up my results!

And yes that write up by Jimmyinkedup was very informative! It's much harder to crash your E2 on Stane... As stated by Jimmy!
