Help on test e only cycle

[Hulkamania13]

Hi guys

Wondering if anyone is able to provide some help. On a test e only cycle at 450 a week. Ran arimidex with at 0.5 EOD from the very beginning. A week later I felt that my e had totally crashed with no libido and ed issues. I was advised to drop adex which I did. I m now going onto my 6th week of my cycle and recovered from the early crash (if that's what it was) and libido was fine and increased significantly.

However after my 5th pin this week I ve seemed to have lost libido once again and experiencing ed issues!! This like many other is causing me stress. From what I have read it seems like it may high eostrogen levels but I haven't noticed any of the other symptoms like ache, severe water retention etc.

What would you guys advise? Shall I reintroduce adex at a reduced dose?

Was that the culprit in the first place?

What kind of dose of adex should I be on and how much generally causes a crash because as you can imagine I m very wary of a crash once again.

I understand from what I have read it differs from person to person but I don't like to hear what kind of doses some of you guys use on modest test e doses like myself.

Thanks

You are working in the blind you need blood work to see where your e2 is. You just can't go by feelings.

The best bet is to get some blood work done to see where your e2 levels are and you can adjust your adex dose from there. I personally have never used adex. Liquid Stane from one of the sponsors on this site is what I prefer and never had any issues.

Good luck

Privatemdlabs female hormone panel. You'll know quick. Quit flying blind you owe it to yourself to know and not go by feel. That is reactive at best.

Right, without bloodwork it's hard to say. I see most people recommend .25mg EOD for the beginner cycle. This is what I'm currently doing.

High E2 and Low E2 carry similar side effects. So as .5 may have been too much, which crashed you. 0 may be too little, essentially bringing you too high now maybe. Again, it's hard to say without bloodwork. But considering they carry the same sides, and the only change has been the Adex dosage, it'd be safe to assume that's what's going on.

Thank for reply guys. Blood work doesn't seem to be as easy to get in the UK and the private labs that offer often charge a fortune, but I will defo look into that.

3js - for the meantime I think I reintroduce at 0.25 e3d? Or shall I go eod?

Can't really say without bloodwork...

Odds are that your estradiol is too high right now. I would go on .25mg of adex EOD. You guys in the UK need to figure out a reliable easy way to get blood work. I feel bad for you guys.

Sure your gear is legit?

All good and thorough advice, due to flying blind. I'm also with .5 Adex was too much should have been .25 SOP. Now correcting will have you on a rollercoaster until labs and adjustment times. Good Luck



PS: just noticed a day late and a dollar short, oldmuscle...ya think?
