So I know the best way to tell is with blood work. I plan on doing this at the end of week 6.(2 more weeks) but until then I'm not sure if my Adex. .5 eod is too much. My cycle is 500mg test e. I'm pretty sure that I'm getting enough if it because I have no signs of sides. No sensitive nips, no excessive bloat. But I would like to know what to look for from my body if it's trying to tell me I'm taking too much.
Signs AI is dosed too high?

My joints start to hurt like hell and as soon as i dial back the Aromatase inhibitor (AI) then everything goes back to normal. But you are right blood work is the only true and accurate way to know. Good luck with the cycle!
Ok, well I don't have aching joints at all, atleast no more then normal. Maybe the dose is right.
Seems that we are taking the same doasages (0.5mg EOD) and are at the same stages of our cycles. I was also wondering about the same thing. Pecks and chests is more solid nowadays, but cant say I experience any gyno and puffiness. Not having pain in joints either. But it still 2months cycle remaining. Blood work is a good idea. Time for that soon.
Is this your first cycle as well? What are you running? Yeah going to get blood work to check E2 and test levels.

When I was on my last solid cycle of tren A test E and masteron prop I started having the sensitive nips, and sappy emotions so I started dosing adex 1mg ed. stopped the nipples and the sappy emotions in about 1-2 weeks. I kept the same dosing bc I didn't want to risk gyno. Shoulda dialed back to .5 EOD but didn't, first thing I noticed was no libido and my wood was rubber. I honestly didn't lose strength or size though, but that's just my experience. Again stopping the adex about 1-2 weeks in my libido and wood were back to normal, then I went to .5eod and never had a problem.
I was by chance looking at running clomid and adex together while off cycle as a good natural test booster before I decide to cycle again in 2-3 years. Does anyone know the proper dosing of this? Id be running clomid anywhere from 40mg a day to 80mg (Via EP). I figured .5 e3d would suffice but didn't want to overdo my Aromatase inhibitor (AI) again.

I'm running .5 adex Ed. My nipples are not sensitive anymore but my hands and feet are a little swole! I'm not scheduled for bloodwork till 3wks from now! By saying high n low symptoms are similar is this one?
Well I think I will drop mine down .25 and see how I feel. I would rather use the least possible effective dose. Today is a day to take it. If the dose is too small I should be able to tell pretty quick right? Austin on a 12 week cycle when would recommend getting bloods done. I was planning on doing them after week six.

Mother nature is one cruel mistress, that's for sure!
"Okay, so we're going to give men a warning system to know when they have elevated estrogen levels!"
"What, no warning system in place for low?"
"Ahh hell, just use the same system. They should know which it is!"
D'oh!
I may or may not have been tricked into thinking I had low E2, when in fact I had rather high E2 - a couple times...

If you wanna know for sure, blood work. Best signs would probably be any unusual nipple/breast behavior. Itchiness and swelling most likely. Those are much more likely with high E2.

If you got the E2 symptoms without the nips problems it's probably low E2. I would invest on a blood test just so you know what whatever you are feeling right now indicates. So next time it happens you have an idea of what it could be. Privatemdlabs is supposed to be good.
Reading it out of context, makes it soundslike an profil-add on a fetisch dating site!!! Who wants to date a broken-down bodybuilder*?

There is never a need to take Arimidex daily. If every-other-day administration is not working, you need to increase your dose or seek a different compound. Of course, every protocol idea is useless without blood work.
Thanks man, I was hoping you would weigh in here. I'm planning on getting blood work done after Thursday. How close to a pin, should I get blood drawn, or does it matter?
