Too much arimidex?

[aj0538]

I started my new protocol about two weeks ago. The doc prescribed 200mg/ml a week of Test Cyp, 250 IU hcg 3x a week and 1 mg of Arimidex 3 times a week. From everything I've read here the Arimidex is pretty damn high. My estrogen was 144 from my old doctors protocol.

Well, my libido dropped and my morning wood has started to become way weaker and less frequent. Should I drop the Arimidex dosage?

I'd say drop it to 0.5mg EOD and see how you go, if there's no improvement maybe then drop it altogether and see how you go.

Any joint pain? Ramp it down if you are sure it's low e2. Maybe 1mg e3d to start. See you you feel and adjust up or down from there.

Its always important to see you you feel

If you tank your.estro you'll have a low libido as well. I run adex at .25 eod

What was your old protocol? We can make guesses based on the difference from the old protocol to the new but a blood test is the only real way to tell. HCG dose is pretty high.

I have to take close to 1mg of adex a day to keep my estrogen down but I definitely not the norm. Your symptoms could be due to either high or low estrogen.

No joint pain other than the usual joint pain I've always had. I was thinking along the same lines as you with dropping it to half the dose I'm taking and see what happens. Thanks for the quick responses.

The old protocol was only test with no hcg or Aromatase inhibitor (AI). That's why I went with Chip. I was told there is a lot of fine tuning involved and it seems the a-dex is the factor that gets played with the most.

If my e2 is low I ALWAYS get wrist pain which if it continues to be low progresses to other joints.
