what reason would you use aromasin on pct?

[wasp]

im doing pct with nolva

20/20/10/10

this is after doing a 10 week 500mg test e cycle, then crusing for 10 weeks on 125...............had to stop crusing as hct and rbc were getting high


ive read alot of pct that use aromasin...........for what reason?i could see if using hcg on pct but hcg should be used last few weeks of cycle, which i did not

i have asin and used 20mg for 3 or 4 days when i started pct, but stopped when i couldnt find any good reading on why to continue.............isnt nolva by itself good enough?

i'm thinking for estro related sides......a SERM will only keep estro from binding to the receptor it will not keep it from forming and roaming around the body

but, if you didnt need it on cycle, which i didnt , when the test levels were much higher, why would the natty test produce estro issues?

Taking from a post on MD...

"The ability of exemestane to lower estrogen levels by the aforementioned 85% makes it a very nice choice for use in any cycle where aromatizing steroids are used. In addition, since it´s not too harsh at all on blood lipid profiles, it´s a very good choice for longer cycles. It´s ability to raise both testosterone levels also seem to suggest that it would be a very nice addition to a Post-Cycle-Therapy (PCT) "


I have never used during PCT, so I can't really say but this is the first time on cycle using Aromasin of Test/Deca/Dboll cycle and I will just say this, at 12.5mg M - F, I am getting great gains and its keeping me hard and dry, I love the stuff.

see, i was told only use if gyno pops up, otherwise it hurts your gains...........lol.................so many minds with opinions


i was just curious why you need to use it on pct when the nolva should be whats increasing your natty test and natty test shouldnt cause any estro issues.......................this is my first pct so no idea what to expect, im 2 weeks out from last pin , down 3.5 lbs and maybe one rep in strength but overall i still feel strong................i know its early but so far so good, i have more definition so im guessing thats from water drop

you are right, it will stop your gains if you use to much, thats why I went for the 12.5mgs M-F, you gotta find what amount works for you. Its amazing how you can tell its working. I just didn't like the bloat from Deca but if I were you, might just have it on hand incase gyno comes but if your not prone to gyno, no worries.

Did some more research, this explains PCT usage pretty good...

Pulled from MD

"Aromasin may be used during a steroid cycle with aromatizing compounds and during PCT to help keep the estrogen to testosterone balance in favor of testosterone. Out of all the medications to control estrogen, Aromasin seems to be the most well balanced. It raises testosterone slightly better than Arimidex and lowers estradiol about 12% better than arimidex in men and is likely to cause less estrogen rebound than Arimidex. Keep in mind that 50mg of Aromasin daily kept estradiol in the normal range for men so if you think using an aromatase inhibitor will crush estrogen too much this science supports the opposite. From the data I have read and my years of experience with this medication 25mg of Aromasin every other day is a good starting point on moderate doses of testosterone. If testosterone doses are raised then 25mg daily may be needed to control estrogen. Since either high and low estrogen can cause side effects such as low libido only labs can determine the appropriate dose of Aromasin"

Hope this helps bro...
