Adex dosage - test e bloating

[lwhich]

Hey guys! I'm on my first cycle, test e 500mg/wk. Week 8 right now, getting big, love it. Getting bloated, hate it. I thought I could sneak away from an Aromatase inhibitor (AI), but, after about a dozen friends have commented on my facial bloating, I've obtained some Arimidex, pharmacy grade (AstraZeneca).

I have ten 1mg tabs. HOw do I dose? I've seen people say .25 mg EOD from beginning of cycle, but now that I'm 2/3 done, do I bump up to .5 mg eod for a week to have the bloating go down fast? When do I stop? Do I take it through my post cycle therapy (pct)? Thanks guys!

AI should be used from day 1. You need blood work, otherwise you're playing a guessing game. These are all questions that should have been resolved pre cycle.

Yep, I'd go .5mg EOD for now. It's a pretty fast acting drug and you should see results in a few days. You'll stop taking it the day before your PCT starts.

Edit: HAH! Austinite beat me to it. A blood test would most certainly be warranted.

Yes, I agree. I feel like an idiot. I thought I had done all the research I had needed to, but I was wrong as usual, haha. Thanks for your advice.

Thanks a lot, halfwit. You and Austin are some of the guys I look up to on this forum, always giving great advice and always polite.
