Scared of crashing estro?

[adamw5963]

I was put on TRT about 3 months ago. My test level was in the 100s and my estro was in the single digits. So I was prescribed 50mg of Test C twice a week. That brought my test up to about 650 and my estro to 13 (still a little low it seems). These labs were done 36hrs after injection. I decided to do a blast. I'm doing 450mg of Test E/week. I have pharma aromasin on hand. I'm about to start my second week of the blast which I know is usually when you start the AI. I'm kind of scared to take the AI because of the low estro feels. What should I do?

Find the right half life of your ai and dose as close as you can then get bloods done in a couple weeks without changing anything. Use that as a base an adjust dose rot dial it in. Once you get it figured out make record of to make it easier to dial in future blasts

I've never got why ppl are so afraid of crashing their e2 on blast/cycle. I crash my e2 going into contests and don't feel any different, that being said I'm already lethargic, cramping and hating life because of the contest prep so that may be it...

Onk , I think it is a whole different story when you are show prepping. Usually ppl are lethargic. Also at that time it' sometimes hard to get to the gym and follow thru due to the lack of calories and so on.

I will attest that I crashed my E2 twice in my career and it was just horrible. No energy no appetite and the feeling of plain shit 24/7. My sleep also was effected due to the lethargy.

However at 450mgs a week you should start your AI now. For me I start with .0125 EOD if you feel good stay there until you get bloods. For me I usually have to adjust that up as I go along since I know how I feel and how a crash feels. Good Luck
That's my 2 cents

If you already feel like shit, how would you know any different. Mostly it's the sexual sides that keeps me from doing it

I'll probably start with 6.25mg asin on pin days. How is that?

This is one of the reasons i love Letrozol. Specially with the spray pump. It's so easy to listen to your body and adjust the dosing if you feel your joints you Adjust the dose. When your done your estrogen rebounds. I crashed my estrogen and my hips were killing me. I play hockey so I was putting where on the hips that doesn't go away once your estrogen comes back months later. Making adjustments with Letrozole you feel the difference in the next few days. Anastrozole was not forgiving at all.

It is extremely hard to crash your e2 with exemestane. Healthy weight trained males were given 25 & 50mg/day respectively and even though e2 was significantly reduced both groups still had e2 within range. Id say thats your solution right there.

oh yeah, on such a low caloric intake sexual arousal is non-existent so that's another factor that masked by contest prep! fun fun
