AI with Test Cyp/Masteron Cycle??

[orangejuice07]

Just started Test Cyp 400mg/Mast E 300mg today. Been researching about use of AI's during cycle if using Masteron and half say no need since Masteron may interact with the aromatase enzymes to inhibit aromatization of other steroids into estrogen, and may additionally interact with estrogen (as a "blocker" of sorts) at the receptor site, but I have read some places where people are still taking ancillarys while using Masteron. Anyone have any personal experiences either way? This is my first cycle using Mast and I have Arimidex, Nolva, HCG, and Clomid on hand. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Are you prone to estrogen sides (gyno, bloat, etc)?

Everyone is different. If i look at a bottle of test i get gyno. So i have it on hand every cycle and now a days i just start using it from the get go. But i have a friend that runs a gram a week to 1500 a week and gets no gyno.

SO basically everyone is different. Just run your cycle and if you need it then use it, if not then no need to use it.

To an extent. Usually when I use long estered versions of Testosterone I get a little bloated but nothing too major. I tried Dbol one time and got serious bloat so never used it again. I always use Arimidex or Nolva throughout my cycles to keep estrogen down so I dont really know how my body reacts without AI's in my cycle. Would it hurt to run either of those even when using Masteron? or are they needed at all....or at least until I see some estrogen side effects?

Never had any problem with gyno. Every now and then my nips would itch or hurt a little and a couple of days of nolva would clear it right up.

I know that you didn't have it listed, but I use Aromasin at 12.5 mg ED when using the same amounts of test and masteron that you have listed. I am prone to bloat, so I use it just to be safe.

I wonder how .5mg Arimidex would compare to 12.5 Aromasin. Ive never used Aromasin before but will definetely look into it. Thanks

Since you'd normally run an ai with said amount of test, and you're adding mast, maybe start with half your normal ai dosage, and add to it only if necessary.

Alright im going to start next week with .5mg Arimidex, or might even start with .25mg and see how that works out. Thanks again

If you have trouble with your cholesterol levels(low HDL) go with aromasin. I have low HDL and used to use arimidex and had a 50% gain in HDL after switching. The only problem is aromasin is so effective it is easy to take too much and lower your estro too much.Plus masteron tends to help with estro as well, so start low 12.5 everyday, you may find after awhile you don;t even need that much with dose your taking. Although on paper aromasin should be taken ED, in the real world I have found that EOD will work fine as long as your not using high doses of aromatizing gear. And keep in mind if your trying to gain mass a little extra estrogen is a good thing.
