Recommended Arimidex dosage

[FrankT]

Hey guys, quick question. I'm taking 600 mgs of testosterone cypionate weekly and have been taking DIM 300 mgs for the estrogen. It has been working well results wise, I got my estrogen down to 25. Unfortunately, my quality of life has gone down because of frequent bathroom trips. I'm looking to switch to Arimidex. What is the recommended dose for someone who aromatizes easily? I was thinking .5 mgs twice a week. Let me know how this sounds. I appreciate it!

Im one of those guys. When i shoot 700Mg test cyp a week split 3 times per week, it personally takes 1mg of ADEX 3 times per week to keep me at 50 E2
.5 twice per week isnt gonna help you if you are like me.
I recommend this:
take 1mg twice a week and get blood work to check estradiol after 4 weeks.

Or run some Primo alongside your test.

primo Always lowered my E2 enough to where i could run half the amount of ADEX when i ran it 1:1.
Thats a great solution as well.
During my cycles i have switched to mast for other benefits however which does absoultely zero for my E2 based on bloodwork. but yeah primo is a great option

Thank you, yea it's crazy on how much I aromatize. Hereditary, I take after my maternal grandfather. I had his blood checked too and I found where I got it from.

Right I understand, I was thinking masteron, my coach recommended it instead of primo. I was always wondering what other guys like me did for their estrogen. So than masteron might not interfere, maybe than I will see about primo.

I'll look to get some of that. My coach recommended masteron, but I'll explore my options. Always looking on how to control this problem. It's nuts. I know on EQ that my E2 crashes. It was less than 15 last blood, I was not taking DIM at the time because I knew it would interfere. But I feel horrible on EQ, so I like to stay away from it

Such a hard question to answer for “you”. Me personally when I run anywhere from 250-500 mg test per week I’ll take 1mg arimidex splitting the pill.

When I run 750mg-1000mg test I’ll take 1.5 mg arimidex splitting 3 times a week.

Although It’s bro science you could add some masteron aswell…from my experiences I feel it helps.

Everybody different gotta find what works for you.

yah watch masteron. some people it lowers e2 and some it doesnt do shit. im one of those guys. you might be as well. trial and error brother

anything over 60 E2 causes me gyno problems. some guys can go close to 100.
So 50 and below works for me

Absolutely agree, I'm going to see what happens. I appreciate it. And to respond to your other response on the gyno, that is one thing I was blessed with, no one in my family suffered from gyno. My dad, grandfather, brother. My dad and uncle were amateur bodybuilders in the 1980's, unfortunately my Uncle had bad gyno and my dad took him to get it removed. Fortunately, I do not suffer from gyno. From my knowledge either you have the gene or you don't. I don't so I'm glad about that. I just get all the other side effects like massive water retention, mental sides, acne, etc. It sucks. My dad and brother have the superior genetics, great muscle building genes, no love handles, no high estrogen, actually it's low, and the conversion rate in which they take testosterone is fantastic. They could take 200 mgs a week and I have to take double the amount to match their testosterone levels. It's crazy the genes you pull honestly. I appreciate your help on this one!

oh yeah no problem brother. i throw in my two cents when i can. I actually had the gyno surgery that cost me 15k. The surgeon actually told me i can blast all the steroids i want and it wont come back. I still take precautions obviously. not something to gamble with
