Scheduled ejaculation might help in PT.

Ejaculation Alters Serum Testosterone.

In this study, the men who ejaculated, and then entered into an did not ejaculate had an increase in testosterone (T) starting on day 6, and peaking on day 7 with 150% level of T. T levels did not fluxuate thereafter.

What is interesting is that if no initial ejaculation occured, there would be no fluctuation.

I do not know why or how this occurs. I would like to know how an AI (anti-aromatase) would affect the outcome.

Good post, and interesting! I've always thought that regular masturbation is important for recovery after a cycle (even if you don't feel like it), gets things working again.

Additionally here's something I've been told by my doc (no studies to back it up unfortunately):

If a male masturbates - but stops before "the point of no return" i.e. ejaculation - it stimulates a significant increase in testosterone, similar to how watching porn but not bashing the bishop to conclusion does the same thing.

Basically the mental stimulation is enough to raise test (free test) levels quite a bit.

I guess an AI would stimulate further increases in testosterone, due to negative-feedback mechanism not kicking in - the conversion to estradiol wouldn't take place, so there'd be no initial decrease in output from the testes... but not 100% sure.
