    Simple question, from what I’ve read it’s pretty important.

    An AI is always warranted(for Aromatase – test to Estro conversion)!

    What else are you running(cycle wise)?? And how old are you?(didn’t see an age in your profile)…

    Edit: obviously its a preference thing(aromasin /a-dex/letro)… As stated below

    Most use Aromasin over Arimidex since Aromasin actually gets rid of the estrogen build up permanently while you’re taking it.

    I’m 31. So there seems to be a few different types of AI’s being used as you stated, but they all do the same thing and stop excess estrogen being converted. I’m just running Test Cyp 200 at 1.5 mg every 4 days. I’ve heard 2 – 4 mg a week is sufficient, but since it’s my first cycle, I’m using 2mg. I’m scared of getting gyno. So as per the "First Cycle" article on this site, I should be using AI (Armidex or equivelant) from weeks 1 – 14.

    Is this true? Do you have a source? I thought they both done the same thing and it was just a preference thing. I’ll read up on that now. There’s a lot of links about them.

    The recommended amount of Arimidex is .25mg EOD which works out to .875mg/week.

    I believe you are going to crash your E2 by using 2mgs/week.
    Crashing your E2 is unhealthy and not fun.

    What do mean by crashing my E2? Do you mean when I come off it after 12 weeks, my body will not take it so good? What do you recommend?

    Edit: this was for DLD and his post!

    ^^^ Dead on!!! That’s a very high a-dex dose(follow DLDs instructions in the a-dex(you sure don’t want to crash your E! If it’s tabs get a pill splitter(works great)…

    Abd yes you would still take your AI through the 2 wk clearing process b4 PCT!

    If you use too much AI(like a-dex/letro) it can be very easy to crash your E(which means it’s way below the lowest range of Blood test – on E2) you’ll feel like you’ve been hit by a truck and run back over again, and your joints will be very sore amongst others, etc….

    This will happen moreso w/dex & letro as Stane is very hard to crash your E…

    I’m getting confused. Is it the "Armidex" or the "Test Cyp 200" that I am taking will make me crash my Estrogen (E)?

    I’m using 1 mgs of "Test Cyp 200" every 4 days.
    I’m using the recommended dose of Armidex, which is roughly 1 mg a week
    – Week 1 to 14: Arimidex @ 0.25mg every other day (From day 2 up until PCT starts)

    Earlier you said you were taking 2mg of Arimidex /week.

    The test cyp 200 is testosterone and will raise your E2.
    The Arimidex is an AI and using too much will crash your E2.
