No Anti-e?

[cure]

I've always used an anti-e when on previous test cycles (only done 2 in the last 5 years though and haven't touched anything in 3+ years). This time around, i decided on low dose of prop 50mg/eod + 50mg anavar daily. Thing is, I don't really feel the need to use an anti-e this time around. I do have some nolva on hand just in case but i don't think I need to spend the money to keep water retention down since I don't believe there will be any or much of any. My diet is always spot on and my bf% is low to begin with + i do a good amount of cardio. What do you guys think?

Another question I have is that i plan to run my var past the end of my prop cycle. Should I still start PCT when i stop my prop even though I'll still be on the var for another couple of weeks?

Thanks

They aren't always needed but it's not a bad idea to keep e under control, in which case nolva is the WORsE thing to use.

If you aren't prone to estro sides, a natty supp will surfice. Some POST CYCLE and Sustain can only help.

Can Arimidex be used by men?

This may seem an unusual question to ask given that Arimidex’s approved use is for breast cancer treatment in post-menopausal women – but the process of aromatization also occurs in men because men also have estrogens in their bodies just as females have testosterone in theirs. As with women, it’s important that the levels of estrogen in the male body are kept in balance.

Excessive levels of estrogens, in particular estradiol, in men can cause benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), gynecomastia (the development of male breasts), and symptoms of hypogoadism (lack of function in the testes).

Therefore, men wishing to reduce their estrogen levels and increase their free testosterone levels may benefit from taking Arimidex. This will reduce the amount of testosterone and adrenal hormones that are converted into estrogens.

Dosage
Men who wish to reduce their estrogen levels and increase their free testosterone levels should take an average of 0.25mg to 0.50mg Arimidex per week. Arimidex is a most potent aromatase inhibitor and even these doses could have significant effects, therefore always monitor your blood levels and seek a health professionals advice.

Side effects
Many people are concerned about the side effects that can occur with medicines designed for the treatment of cancer. But patients should be reassured because Arimidex can offer powerful proven protection against reoccurrence of their breast but at the same time is less likely to cause certain side effects than tamoxifen.

The most common side effects included hot flashes, thinning of the hair, joint symptoms, weakness, mood changes, pain, sore throat, nausea and vomiting, loss of appetite, depression, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, swelling of arms/legs, vaginal dryness, vaginal bleeding (usually within the first few weeks) and headache. Although this list seems to be rather alarming, you may not experience any side effects at all. If you do, do not stop taking the medication but talk to your doctor.

Most men wouldn't need anti-E's for the cycle you propose. I'd keep the Nolva on hand just in case.
Any chemicals you put in your body should have been scientifically studied, peer reviewed, AND published by such organizations such as the JAMA.
I've never used var - but I always run test only for the last 2 weeks of a cycle.
