I have never tried it but a lot of people speak highly of DMI which is over the counter, but also Arimidex is a good choice. I'd say go with probably a .25mg after injections and maybe half way through the week as well, or just as needed if you notice tender nipples, etc. Don't overdo anything to do with AI or E blockers though as a lack of E can have you feeling pretty horrid.

Also, is Androlic basically Anadrol? Don't over do it and don't base a cycle on orals, haha. Livers are important things.

How much DIM do you take and how much of an effect on E2 does it have? I mean if your E2 is in the 60 range will it bring it back to 30-40? Dose dependent? I can't seem to find any DIM research on e2 control in men.

I know many people have great success with DIM, but it's a supp I will NEVER take again.
The day I started taking it I felt super tired. I chalked it up to increased gym time/stress/crazy schedule. Not even a week later I took my daily dose, laid down to watch tv and when I got up was so dizzy and lightheaded. Again, chalked it up to being tired. Well I got up in the morning and couldn't even walk. It felt like I was on a boat and was so incredibly sick. And I was so tired I couldn't keep my eyes open. I went to the store and it literally felt like I was drunk and having the spins. Got on Google and found that some people react to it that way. Thankfully as the supp wore off the horrible feeling went away. But it was really scary.

Do you have any other medical issues? High blood pressure?

No high blood pressure, it's always been slightly low.
The only thing that I was on at the time was T3 and Tbol, asthma meds and probably fish oil. I can't see any of them interfering.

I agree, can't see them interfering either. I have very low blood pressure and my TRT director (lol) a couple mg Adex a week, and on that I got headaches at night and sore joints. Not as severe as what you experienced, but it's interesting as to why it had that affect on you.

Anastrozole, proven, no sides, effective. Reasonable half life in case you crush your E1.

I too am interested in this as well. I just started taking DIM like 4 days ago. my e2 was over 80 2 weeks ago so trying to get that back down to my sweet spot
