does having your estrogen too low on cycle actually hurt your gains or is that a myth? im on week 4 of 500mg a week of test c. ive had my estro a little low the whole time so far because i was paranoid about gyno im lowering my adex dose now. ive gained 9-10lbs so far but seen no strength gains yet. has this low E hurt my gains? is that why i havent seen strength gains yet? the weight gain seems good so i dont think the low e could have had too much effect. i know the first 4-5lbs is water weight because the weight gain was about instant when i started. i was on .5mg of adex a day, now im going .5mg eod
 
Too low of estrogen effects your gains, as you need a certain amount to build muscle (along with other benefits). Has it effected you, I don't know. Not sure what you call "a little low". But overall yes you want a certain amount in your system, and I have no clue what that amount is suppose to be. Everyone would be on letro, amongst other things if it didn't matter.

I'm guessing you had bloods done by the way you worded your post. So what are your levels?
 
in my opinion low e make s my joint s tend to ache but I ve never heard of it affecting strength...

libido, mood and e d are obvious onje s that come to mind
 
Estrogen is essential for GH/IGF-1 levels, too low estrogen will have an effect on GH/IGF1. A mistake people make is taking cabergoline to control prolactin, cabergoline is used among other things for people whom have hypersomatotropism(produce too much GH) so you are strangling your gains by lowering your GH/IGF by taking too much caber and too much of an AI.

Would Aromasin 12.5MG EOD be sufficient while on cycle?
