Amiridex debate: Bad for those who are not estro sensitive, good for others.

Oestroen doesnt always correlate to SHBG...

I think the important thing is to be sensible.. You dont want to be flatlining oestrogen. It has its place.

However some people simply have different hormone metabolism. So someone may require 0.5mg adex daily on NORMAL trt dosages of say tets enth and another person can shoot 500mg week no issues.


The important thing to do is rememeber you are unique. Monitor your bloods and take adex only when you need it and not for just no reason. Once again like everything with the body it depends on the person, there is no 1 size fits all.

True, though you won't be flat lining estrogen by taking adex when you sprout bitch tits 4 weeks into a high test dosage cycle. If anything it would HELP, yes HELP your gains because that's too much estrogen floating around. You don't want half your exogenous test converting to estrogen, that's just counterproductive. Like you said, just be sensible.

The main reason I started the thread was for people who are really estrogen sensitive who think taking adex will hinder there gains because of all the shit people who aren't sensitive to estrogen tell them about adex. Yet, while adex hinders others, us people who are prone may benefit gains wise from finding the sweet spot of AI use to achieve a similar test:estro balance that those who are unprone have without it.

But BY ALL MEANS IF YOU AREN'T PRONE, PLEASE DON'T TAKE ADEX. IT WILL HINDER YOUR GAINS. You do need some estrogen from proper anabolism.

What would you recommend for beginners who want to use a lower dosage of test, say 300mg/wk??? Would you even recommend an AI? Or would you recommend to start the cycle, see how things go, and then use your own judgment?

Absolutely your own judgment. If your sprouting new nipps 4 weeks in on 300mg/wk then obviously take an AI. If you just get puffy nips but nothing more, and it doesn't get any worse, then an AI probably won't be a good idea. Take me for example. I'm on 750mg/wk test right now and within a month I have some huge lumps under my nips that are being about to be taken care of by adex starting today and my libido is shit compared to how most people on test feel (wood all day, horny 24/7). Some people can take that amount and just have sensitive nipples and that's it. I NEED it and i'm pist I judged it too late thinking it would hinder my gains when in actuality, not taking care of high estro has hindered my gains and libido.

Some estro is needed, like the amount those who aren't sensitive have, thus no need for an AI. But the amount that I, or someone else who is really prone has is wayyyy too much and counterproductive.
