the right start

I've been recovering from a car crash over the last 8 years, was in great shape and now I'm finally cutting the weight and back to my lifting life.

I'm looking at going with a mild cycle of test, but feel like my estrogen count is high b/c I've got sore puffy nips. I'm thinking it could be partially from not being able to do proper pct at the end of my cycle back when I got smashed up in that car, and maybe it's my age too, I'm 48 now. I'm thinking maybe I should just start with Aromasin, just to knock the estrogen down, then start in with a few weeks of sust.
Anyway, I'm doing a lot of reading here, figured I'd put it out there to hear from a few experts.

im not an expert, but before i would consider taking any aas i would take care of that gyno first

also get a blood test and see what your levels are...this is important

at your age it wont be easy to recover after a cycle...maybe you should look in to trt?

Do you have any lumps? If so hop on letro. If not I would get bloodwork done before jumping on aromasin. It could be somethings else an your estro could be fine. Bloodworks the only way to truly know.

As far as the age thing goes, if you do cycle I would FOR SURE run Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) the entire cycle and a very solid post cycle therapy (pct). I won't say that because of your age it's gonna be harder for you to recover because there's 23 year olds that do one cycle of test and never recover but, it could be a factor in your recovery. Everyones different. Either way, make sure you get gyno in check and body fat down before you cycle. Good luck and welcome to ology

Well this is one of the best articles I've ever read on gyno. Even though its a different site it helped me out a shit load. Really has useful information. All you need to know about GYNO.

Thanks guys, pretty much exactly what I was thinking, but now I definitely going in to get my blood work done. The heads up on hcg is a great one, I'm spending a lot of my research time right now looking into that option.

...I'll be back
