First of all let me say sry for my bad English but it's not my native language. This thread is purely educational. I am new to the steroid world.. I've never ever done a cycle before but the subject was always interesting for me. I've been spending every free time researching the topic like a madman the past few weeks. I think i pretty much got the basics but i still have a lot of questions regarding my cycle. I will soon start a test e only cycle at 500mg/w (250 mg twice a week) for 12 weeks.. The thing is that the information on the internet is endless and everyone talks different stuff so i might as well ask someone that knows what's up.. 2 weeks after the last pin I will start a standard PCT with clomid and nolva. My questions are basically 2 at the moment:
1 - Is it necessary to throw an AI during the test e cycle (if yes i think about getting Arimidex or you can probably offer me something else ?)
2 - I've red that a lot of dudes take nolva during cycle and continue till the end of the pct. The thing is
- why are they taking nolva instead of arimidex during cycle?
- isnt it better to take arimidex during cycle and leave the nolva for pct with clomid
I also red that taking nolva durig cycle will hinder your gains.. and id like to take the most out of my first cycle
So basicly any information on AI, nolva and pct will be appreciated.
I find it interesting how the drugs actually work in the body.. so if u go in depth on the information it will be cool.
Oh and another question.. So lets say right now my natural test is at 50 mg/w for example.. so when I start taking test it will be higher and probably some of it will aromatize and my estrogen will go up so after the cycle - when i start the pct it will bind to the receptor so i don't get the sides and my natural test production will be stimulated.. but after the pct when my balls start working normally and I go back to like 50 mg/w.. what happens with all that estrogen that is floating around in my body ? From what i understand the pct is just binding to the receptor.. but the estrogen is still there.. what will happen after the pct is my question? Is it just a bridge into another cycle ? Because I'd like to stay completely off for at least 2-3 months between cycles.
