AI on TRT

[Scott Weiland]

Hey Everyone,

Been on TRT 200mg Test-C once a week for about 6 weeks. At week 5 they introduced Arimidex 1mg (split twice a week). E2 was at 100 (so yeah I needed it). Pin on Monday, half on Tues, half on Friday.

What I’m noticing is I feel wiped out day/evening of taking it. Day after I feel better, 2 days after I feel good. But I’m starting to dread the next .5

I’m wondering is .5 twice a week is a standard protocol cuz I feel like ass after taking it. Like I could sleep it off for a whole day then start to feel good. Is it worth exploring cutting in 1/4 or 1/8 and taking more frequently? Ex) I heard some people get TRT every other day (50mg) to keep you level. Starting to think the same about AI.

Normal protocol for any AI is dosed eod. I would also try to switch to aromasin. Maybe arimadex doesn't work as well for you.

I agree with Rick. Push your doctor to switch you to aromasin. Doctors go with arimidex because that is what they knew back when they were in med school. Too many of them do not stay updated and miss learning about the newer compounds like aromasin.

Great question by OP. I’m on TRT as well except my doc has me taking 1mg of Adex everyday. With my knowledge of it from reading and asking around every says either 0.5 EOD or 1 EOD. Not sure why she has me taking 1 everyday. What are the benefits of aromasin vs Adex May look into switching if there’s more benefits. Thanks guys!

aromasin is a suicide inhibitor and actually kills estrogen while arimidex merely suppresses it.. aromasin is much more powerful and if you are gyno prone, its a far better option... if you are NOT estrogen sensitive, then arimidex is a good option because aromasin can crush estrogen in some but it COMPLETELY depends on the person
