The BIG question on Letro

[SpudToStud]

Alright, I have been readin up on this compound for the past week. Now i mean a solid freaggin weak. What i have learned is that:
1. It has been shown to REVERSE gyno. (impressive)
2. It is the most powerful AI (in alot of cases too powerful!)
3. Because of how powerful it is it often leads to loss of libio and problems getting erect.

My Situation - I will be running Test/Deca at somewhat high dosage and using Letro as my AI. I will start off by using .50mg EOD and my bump up to .50mg ED as I see fit (I am some what prone to gyno).

My Question, a question i have seen pop up from time to time and remain unanswered. If one develops gyno mid cycle, can they take the max daily dosage of Letro (2.5mg ED) ramping it up properly while on cycle and still expect to see gains and still expect results from the letro, gyno reversal?

I don't know if that's asking for to much at once, get rid of preexisting gyno while on cycle and expecting to still be able to bulk, or, if this is a common practice.

It has been widely disputed that AI's have no effect on gains (muscle gains) and there is no evidence showing that suppressed estrogen will result in hindered gains (just reduce water bloat and fat gains). But, I am looking for personal experiences and opinions.

For the most part this is completely hypothetical - although may be useful for my own, or others future cycles.

May i please also direct you to this thread that goes in depth about AI's with great contribution from both Researchstop and Macro.

Well, I have very limited experience with letro.

I know a guy that was using what appears to be badly underdosed Exemestane and developed some pretty noticeable gyno as his bodyfat dropped.
He was on 600 mg test E per week. But appears to by gyno prone as he had it pretty bad in his early teens.

He has now been on 2.5 mgs of letro for 3 days and the lumps are just about gone. He weight is actually up a pound and strength is fine.

His plan is to continue at that dose for a week, then down to 1.25 per day for another week, and then 12.5 mgs of real exemestane for the remainder of his cycle.

To answer the question of can you go straight to 2.5, yes but it takes 3-5 days to peak so building up is recommended. If you go straight to 2.5 and stay there for a while it should help with gyno but your sex drive will be gone and I've found from using it for long period of time and that high of dose it fucks up your estrogen badly even after you come off and I highly recommend tapering down when coming off so rebound won't be bad and use some nolva post letro
