  • Just couple of other quick questions:

    1) Everyone here uses AI’s, but maybe you guys are stacking or using medium/high doses. I should have added in the original question, do I still need to use it on small doses, such as what I’m on (400mg "Test Cyp 200" a week). I’m using AI’s anyway, just to be safe, but my mate isn’t and he’s on the same dose. He says he doesnt need it.

    2) In the "My first cycle" article on here, it says to use 0.25mg Armidex every other day. Can I instead, just take .50mg on the days I pin (every 3.5 days), so as to keep things simple for myself. Is there much difference in these 2 ways I’ve suggested? They both work out as 1mg a week of Armidex.

    So you just mean it takes 18 days to clear out of your system? So wait 2 weeks (or 2.5?) before I start PCT, then run PCT (Nolvadex ) for 4 weeks.

    So if your only running 200mgs wkly, that would be .5cc or ml 2x wkly to equal 200mgs a wk…

    Make sense?

    Yes, makes sense now you’ve explained it. I was getting mls and mgs confused, but they are different forms of measurements (volume and mass) and can vary depending on the solution as far as I’m aware. But it says on the vial of test that it is 200mg/ml, so if I pin 1 ml a week, that’s only 200 mgs. But I am actually pinning 2 mls a week (every 3.5 days) so I’m actually taking 400 mgs a week.

    It’s like being back at school. Thanks though, I’m learning a lot in this thread.

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

    Sorry for the confusion. So now that I have cleared up the confusion, things are looking okay then and I am not likely to "crash"?

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

    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)

    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?

    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.

    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

    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.
