confused about arimidex

I posted this on the HRT site but I don't think many people even look at that area. At any rate here's my question:

So I have read the sticky's and the info I can find on Nolvadex and Arimidex. I am using 300mg test cyp/week. I have Arimidex and am using .5 mg twice/week as per my docs presciptions. This is my interpretation (although it may be wrong) that Arimidex and Nolvadex do the same thing but by different means. Do I also need to take Nolvadex?

Ok so this is your 5th post, so WELCOME to EF. Need more info like age and years training height and weight. I know its just a question on AI's. But my concern is why did your Dr prescribe both Arimidex and Nolvadex? A-dex is one of the best AI's IMO even at .25mgs every other day. here is a link I hope will help you. Good luck and stick around you can learn alot here.
 
no need to take nolva with adex. adex is an aromatose inhibitor, and nolva is an anti-estrogen.

im glad you asked because i was wondering the same thing, but from what i haved researched ari. is more for the sides when you are ON, and nolva is more for you pct when you come off.

No they do not do the same thing and hell no you do not need nolva on cycle for any reason at all.

Now I take it you are on HRT since you are getting this from a doc? so in other words you are never coming off again?
 
arimidex stops estrogen from forming so you dont bloat and no gyno
nolvadex takes up the space that estrogen would so you dont grow breast tissue but you still will bloat and have estrogen sides besides gyno
arimidex is the best choice

ahh my good friend, i think i know what you were trying to say but maybe it came across wrong,, but if you show signs of gyno during a cycle you should def. jump on some nolva.. but dont run nolva throughout your cycle just cause, run adex if your worried about estro sides.. i believe thats what needto meant, if i am wrong then bitch me out bro u know i got nothing but love for ya:rainbow:
 
What r ur test levels by taking 300mg of cyp a week? Just curious....also curious as to why a doctor will prescribe 300mg a week for HRT?
in all honesty unless you way over your genetic limit and carry a lot of muscle from previous cycles taking 300mg a weeks is too much and your testosterone levels will be way higher than they should be normally. This maybe the reason you need Arimidex because you about border line of doing a cycle here not HRT.
Im not saying you shouldn't do 300mg a week Im just trying to understnad for what purpose you doing this?
 
i didnt even know doctors prescribed adex and nova for HRT patients? I thought it was just for breast cancer and wasnt approved for HRT? correct me if im wrong, but even there website says ARIMIDEX / hormonal treatment for post-menopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer

Cyp will not work as good as you think in this set up. If it was Test prop it will be great but Cyp will be an up and down ride.
Now the HCG is set up weird to me as well...What made you set it up this way if you don't mind me asking?

wtf is this shit. MY EYES MY EYES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
both nolva and arimidex help take care of gyno as they work as aromatase inhibitors and anti-e's.....arimidex is much better than nolva however, because it works on the gyno not just at the receptor site (like nolva) but also at its endogenous production.
 
what your trying to do is not going to work. if you have test levels of 80 then go to a endo and get yourself fixed...obviously you have issues that need attention

for what you have now you dont have enough for 6 months you have enough for 20 weeks at 200mg ew and thats it...just by shooting steroids isnt going to make you look like your on steroids...that will come with a good diet and routine and many cycles..your not going to transform over night...

go to a endo before you start injecting the test you have now, if you inject what you have your going screw your levels all up and they wont be low anymore
 
I don't think you need to be taking either one, unless your showing signs of high estrogen. Too many bro's take A-dex, and or Nolvadex as a precaution and by doing so will never know if they are needed or not. In other words how do you know if estrogen is going to be a problem for you if you don't try and run a cycle without an aromotase inhibitor or a serm.

Why take these drugs if they are not needed. Not everyone needs a-dex or aromasin or a serm on cycle.
 
ok I get it this cycle sucks. That's why I posted here but did it over in the luife extension area first but didn't get much feedback...my thought process with the HCG was - spend time on...natty test gets lowered ...use HCG to get it going again while off for a few weeks simply trying to draw it out for longer...am I that far off here (with the HCG anyway)
