Guys, In YOUR own personal experiences, which is better to control estrogen related water retention and other sides during a Test cycle?? Proviron? Or Arimidex? I'll be using a combo of Test Enanthate/Cypionate@600mg/wk.

letrozole is best and it'a just a click away in cinnamon , peppermint and fruitpunch.. ....at www.lionnutrition.com
Letrozol is femera, which is an anti-estrogen.
Femara is 10-30x more effective than Arimidex in it's ability to pass thru the cell membrane of lipid (fat) cells and inhibit the activity of aromatase -- in other words, Femara is far superior in lowering estrogen levels in fat cells. This has two benefits for BBs; (1) Estrogen 'attracts' water, so less water retention (2) an average male BB is around 10%BF, that's a lot of lipid cells with aromatase inside them, so a substantial percentage of aromatase is left untouched by Arimidex due to it's poor ability to enter lipid cellsArimidex is approximately 80% effective at inhibiting aromatase, Femara is around 95-97%

They may have fat nipples, but do you really know "several guys" that actually have gyno? It is so rare. If yo uget it from using test at 600 mgs a week, you are going to end up getting it pretty much no matter what you do. You shouldn't need any anit-e at 600 mgs.Originally posted by Texas Ranger
It's mainly a precaution. I've seen several friends that used the "wait and see" approach and they all have Gyno(mild to moderate). I want to keep a hard, lean appearance. I'm not scared of a little water, though.

Fair enough. I just get used to guys on the boards thinking they have gyno because their nipples are a little puffy and they forget that they are at about 20% bf. :DOriginally posted by Texas Ranger
Mcbvr6, yeah I know 3 guys that have gyno. 2 of them I grew up with and they used 500-750mgs of Test as a base along with other stuff(Dbol, Winny, EQ, etc...). I'm not too concerned about Gyno. It's the excessive water retention.

Well, if they were dosing it too high, it has that effect.. If they used femara at 2.5mg or even 1.25mg EOD, they wouldn't have a problem.. ;)Originally posted by Texas Ranger
ALOT of guys complained that Femara did to good of a job with the estrogen suppression. They had NO sex drive despite being on 750-1000mgs of Test. No thanks!!
