AROMASIN is it both an estrogen blocker & a TESTOSTERONE booster?

[horusculture]

I know aromasin works by competing with estrogen for the receptors and wins. Through this process the estrogen is left floating around the body. Because the estrogen is not binding to any receptors the body is tricked into thinking there is no estrogen. So the body creates more estrogen and the only way to increase estrogen levels in to create or increase more testosterone. So if we understand this we can understand why AI's or estrogen blockers are used throughout our cycle to prevent gyno (high levels of estrogen may lead to gyno.) But doesnt this also mean that using an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) like AROMASIN (one that doesnt create rebound effects after discontinued use) can also be used as a*test*boster through*PCT*and even for an individual who has low natural*test?

So the question here is: we know we can use aromasin as an estrogen blocker to prevent gyno, but can we also use it as an all around testosterone booster for men?

your body knows it has a bunch of test in it, it keeps making estrogen to balance out ur system, by killing off estrogen, your body will keep attempting to work with estrogen and replace test... or so i think

 

[fancyhuh101]

i dont think so , your body always tries to maintains a balance , you also need estrogen to grow

Yes. But regardless whether ur body knoes it has testosterone in it or not. By taking aromasin, I believe (according to research) your body thinks it has limited estrogen and your body will create more estrogen. Through this very process of creating more estrogen, your testosterone levels will rise or increase organically.

but test also converts to estrogen, remember you need some estrogen or its useless, chances are if your running Aromatase inhibitor (AI) your running test or some other stuff, your test levels won't rise cause you'll be shut down *_*

If I run 625mg/week of test e for 16 weeks. And im shooting 500iu /week of hcg. And im taking aromasin ed. You think my natural testosterone is going to completely shut down? Hcg is suppose to keep ur nuts from shrinking while on cycle and also it should keep ur natural testosterone reproducing. As long as u down stay on test for too long and h don't run any particular aas that is hard on the system (like tren, drol, mast or winny)

16 weeks is a long cycle.. short cycle is like 8... i've never researched hcg nor plan on running it anytime soon but if need be ill get it, but im pretty sure the test will counter act the hcg and thats why people run it during the time they get off test and wait the couple days before post cycle therapy (pct), but lets say your idea did work, you'd be producing small amounts of test that wouldn't even be noticeable, if this tactic work the first cycle for everyone would include hcg

 

[fancyhuh101]

you will be shutdown , your body wont make test , an Aromatase inhibitor (AI) will not help make natural test , and i mean if u are already taking 625mg of test a week , what are you hoping on getting ... another 50mg a week lol

I believe most people do not include hcg in their cycle bc they do not know how to. Or they are in so anxious to start their cycle they don't research as much as they should. Lets face it most people that do steroids don't do it right. Everybody wants to get by doing as little as possible. A lot people even skio pct let alone get into learning about hcg n how it helps w recovery. Do the math..hcg (at proper dosage) keeps testes at their normal size (prevents shrinkage) which means your testosterone may never even be affected. Which explains how people recover 100%.

Testicle size does not equate to testosterone production, I had balls the size of lemons and a total test of 120ng/dL. Whether or not adding HCG would do ANYTHING aside from allowing your hardy boys to plump up and continue making pregnenolone/DHEA while on exogenous test is beyond me.

 

[Spidermannn]

If that worked, doctors would be prescribing it instead of test for TRT. It sounds great theoreticaly

 

[horusculture]

Ok so back to my original question. Should I run aromasin through my post cycle therapy (pct)? Or stop it the day before starting post cycle therapy (pct)? Should I run aromasin ed or eod @ 12.5mg? I was planning on ed to keep wated retention down and of course for gyno prevention.

This is not accurate. Exemestane or Aromasin is a "Suicidal" Aromatase inhibitor (AI), meaning it binds to the aromatase enzyme and actually deactivates it or "kills" it after attaching to it - aka suicidal inhibition. Exemestane has been shown to actually lower circulating Estrogen in the body, not just blocking it. Other AI's like Adex and Letro also lower Estrogen but interact with the Aromatase enzyme in a different way... they attach to the enzyme but the effect is reversible - meaning once they are no longer in your system the enzyme can re-activate.

What you were referring to with blocking Estrogen receptors but leaving actual Estrogen levels untouched would be more in-line with Nolvadex. Clomid is also similar to what you mentioned because it also binds to estrogen receptors (like Nolva), but it is actually a synthetic weaker estrogen that blocks your body's own estrogen from binding to the receptor.
