Adex @ .5mg/day or 1mg/day ok?

[Doom]

.5mg should be more than enough

letrozole, arimidex will screw with your chloresterol and lower serum IGF-1

Pro, doesnt the combo of both novla and letro balance itself out, cholesterol wise...I know ive seen that somewhere

[hitmansb]

I am a fan of letro myself

nolva and arimidex is what your refering to right? Well to a degree, yes, nolvadex will act like an estrogen in the liver, but if you add the cost of both, might as well just buy letz.

actualy letrozole has been shown to increase igf up to 24 % it is the best thing for bloat it is known to be ruff on chloresterol in the short term

Arimidex (anastrozole) (aromatase inhibitor)is a compound that can inhibit around 75% of estrogen conversion if taken properly. use at least .25mg per 250mg of test per week...arimidex is also found in liquid forms like liquidex...Liquidex is anastrozole powder mixed with glycerin. There are a few different kinds of liquidex coming from different suppliers some are higher concentrations of arimidex per ml...others have added ingredients to enhance the absorbtion. Liquidex is much cheaper then arimidex in the tablet form....Studies have shown that arimidex decreases IGF-1 levels by around 18%

Femara (letrozole) is another compound that may be useful ...Femara is another aromatase inhibitor...that actually icreases IGF-1 levels by 24%...If used correctly, Femara can effectively inhibit about 90-95% of estrogen conversion. Femara also stimulates serum LH... 1/2 a 2.5mg pill ed is an effective dose for moderate doses of test (I'm not sure about this...I'm just reporting what I heard.

Aromasin (exemestane) is in a class of it's own, it is a aromatase inactivator...It actually renders estrogen receptors useless. Instead of just inhibiting production, it cuts off production. Aromasin can effective prevent about 90-97% of estrogen conversion. A negative aspect of Aromasin is that it decreases IGF-1 levels by about 23-24%

Nolvadex is actually an anti-estrogen that can be useful if symtoms of gyno appear...A problem with nolvadex it supresses estrogen, but then when nolvadex use is discontinued, there is a rebound effect....if you need to use nolvadex, it's a good idea to run it until you start clomid therapy or add proviron after discontinuing use to off set the rebound. Nolvadex also decreases IGF-1 levels by about 25% so it will effect your gains to some extent.

Clomid is a weak anti-estrogen....it is better for the purposes of restoring natural test levels post cycle.
