AI and Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) questions...

Am i over thinking?

this is a small question and may be totally useless but i was just wondering...

Im going to do test prop only and take .25mg arimidex eod throughout. Everything you read or people you talk to say to start the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) on week 1 when you start the test. My question is why should you start taking the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) on week 1? Why not start till at least week 2 because the prop has barely started working. I know some will say you dont have to take it at all or wait till you notice bloat or estrogen effects. But same goes for hcg... I am going to be running 500iu 2x a week and all my research says start week 1 of my cycle. well my natty yest won't be affected at all yet so why not wait a few weeks?

logically thinking, i was considering doing
week 1-10 test prop 100mg eod
week 2-10 arimidex .25mg eod
week 4-10 Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) 250iu 2xweek
---
week 11-13 nolva 40/30/20/20

Am i over thinking this?

The shit starts in ur balls from the time u inject prop but u won't feel it.
I usually do estro blood test and adjust from there
I played it safe b4 and started in first week. Adex .5 eod .. No prob.
 
The fact that you feel the prop has barely started working in week 1, has nothing to do with it.

Prop starts to release almost immediately when you inject. As it releases, some also converts to estro

Just because you don't notice estro sides, does not mean it is not increasing almost immediately.
 
I would make pct clomid and nolva at lower dose (30-50mg ed clomid/ 20mg nolva ed) or just clomid over tamox if its run alone.
I also dont think you need HCG for a short simple cycle, but when i do rec it i rec it only the last 4-5 weeks of cycle at 500iu 2X a week.

good luck
