Are there any issues that concern being on Armidex for a LONG time

Are there any health risks you take with being on Liqui dex for long periods of time?

the absence/decreased estrogen will fuck up your blood lipids - esp your HDL which is an independent risk factor for adverse cardiovascular events

I have found long term arimidex use messes with my libido. I wouldn't use it any longer than a cycle + PCT, tapering off as PCT completes.

what if someone were to never go off such as cruising at 500 mg. Would lowering Armidex as much as possible just so that one wouldn't get gyno help? Or would one just gain a ton of water and estrogen levels be really high once again?

Adex may have a role to play here, depends on the individual - how actively their body aromatises E from testosterone - results from multiple blood tests would best provide the answers. As mentioned it is important to keep estrogen within healthy range, if you knock it too far down your sex drive diminishes, it will negatively impact HDL / LDL, bone strength, immune system etc. There's a balance to be struck with all hormones and the body will attempt to self regulate constantly.

Alot of bro's will state that 500mg won't require an AI but I think it is different person to person. I got gyno during puberty just from my own natty test levels aromatising so I know that my body converts test to E easily (blood tests also confirm this).

I've posted what a healthy E range looks like in the past, can't remember it off the top of my head right now.

I would not suggeste stayin on that shit, Your cycle ya but cut it after that

There is no need to use arimidex when you're off a cycle. During the cycle, your lipid levels will be shot, so I wouldn't worry about using arimidex, but after the cycle you're trying to recover so there is no need to keep your estrogen low post pct. Let your body get a natural level of hormonal balance on your time off from cycles.

as far as i am aware arimidex can lead to arterioscleroisis as said abaove and the theory is due to reducing estrogen levels further which are protective over lipid values. so i wouldnt be staying on for too long

 

[tommboy]

But if armidex wasn't reducing your estrogen too far would it be ok to take it? Espcially if one was on finasteride that raises your estrogen levels a lot higher than normal also

 

[Quiltie]

What you're asking, it seems to me, is if you're going to go on a super long test cycle is it safe to take Arimidex during the entire time along with it. I would say that the answer is a cautious yes, because people in cancer treatment programs take it for YEARS on end, just like with Nolva. Those are women though, I would think that you would want to have blood work done to figure out exactly what you're levels are. I would rethink the logic of a really long test cycle, and at least include equal "no juice" rest times in there to prevent HPTA problems.

Are you taking about using it on a cycle or just by itself without a cycle? If on a cycle, you can use arimidex the whole cycle - whatever your time-frame is. If not on a cycle, there is no reason to use arimidex by itself.
