Beginner Question - Armidex

[Relogic]

Hello,

I'm 30 y/o, 6'4, 195 lbs, 10% body fat, and have worked out on and off for most of my adult life. I have never done any steroids before but I'm about to start. Aside from over-the-counter supplements, I'm going to be doing 250mg of cypionate twice a week for 12 weeks. My question is, at what cycle week should I start taking 0.5mg of Armidex? Should I start the first week or wait until around the 6th week?

I haven't decided 100% on a PCT yet (need to do more research), but I'm thinking it's going to involve Nolvadex or Clomid and lower does of Armidex a week after my last cycle....also undecided if I want to throw in IGF-1.

What is your planned PCT?

Start adex 2 weeks after starting cycle at either .25 EOD or .5 EOD depending if you are gyno prone.
Get a baseline test blood work before starting cycle.

^^^^And don't start until you actually have everything you need for your pct.

Updated my original post with more information in regards to your questions.

Also, how do you know if your gyno prone?

[JDBeretta]

I would suggest starting at .25mg/day.

Everyone is different, but I think you'd be safe at that dose to prevent gyno. If you start seeing signs of it, bump to .5mgs.

If your ni**les get sore or you get lumps behind the ni**les rather soon after the start of your cycle you are prone to gyno. Some people get symptoms and some don't. BW would be a good idea after a few weeks to see where the estrogen levels are.

Adex should be used prn/as needed, not just added arbitrarily to a novice cycle.
You may never need it!

^^^ I agree, you may not need to use it at all

It´s better to wear a seatbelt rather than to potentially go through physical therapy, imo.
