Anyone do Letro on cycle?

[DrEric]

I've heard people say that doing this can inhibit gains, but I don't really understand how. Does test need estrogen to work properly? The reason I ask is bc I have some nipple puffiness. I went to my doc and he gave me letro and he wants me to take .5mg/day for 7 days then .25mg/day for 6 days. He said to take care of it now and do it quickly.

I've used it on cycle before, but I'd rather just take an above normal dose of arimidex or aromasin. It can inhibit gains because your body needs a proper balance of testosterone and estrogen.

What's more important to you gyno or squeezing out an extra 5-10% on your cycle? You don't want your gyno to flare up big time, so you need to do something.

No doubt, I've already started taking it. The research chems I used were useless. I was just wondering what to expect.

 

[sonicwaste]

where did you get your resarch chems? I use research chems frequently and as a staple in my supplement routine and I've not had a problem.

Not sure of the rules here, but it wasn't any of the board sponsors bc all the neg i've been seeing about AG-guys. I was taking 25mg/day aromasin, then switched to 5mg letro. Used a couple of weeks w no change. You have a pm

Have you seen a change in Puffynees since you started the letro.... and does your Dr. know you are using Gear?

 

[DrEric]

Yes, and I think the enormous testosterone level on the bloodwork woulda given me away . A friend of a friend owns a HRT clinic, thats where I went. It's omly been 24 hrs since I took my first 5mg, but believe it or not, I do notice a slight decrease in puffiness.

I been taking Letro for a while, IMO 1.25mg very 2-3 days is more than enough. If you take to much you will inhibit gains. I personally like what you get for the price, but it must be used wisely.

 

[DrEric]

My price was probably WAY higher than yours. In the US this is a drug under patent and there is no generic yet. I wanted to make sure I had the real deal so I spent the $200 for blood work and got a script. The pills can cost up to $30 each! Since it was a friend of a friend I got them for $15, but still high. I'm taking them as directed and there are already symptoms, not just prevention so maybe that's why the high dose.

The key is not to use to much,,jsut the proper amount. I honestly think when used right gains are not hindered,,,in fact I think you will look and feel better with an AI.
