    Anastrozole - Enduring Side Effects 5 Years Later

    Hello all, I’m 28yo male in the US. When I was in my early 20s, I had a residual puffy nipple from puberty.

    Off TRT for over 3 months, interesting results

    I was previously on TRT for almost 8 years. During that time I struggled getting dialed in as I would never have consistent energy, focus, sexual function, fat loss and pretty much any of the benefits of TRT. I would get "spurts" of the benefits for a week at a time and then they would...

    Considering "micro dosing" AI?

    Weekly shot test cyp(I know), was recommended 48hrs post inject to take.5mg anastrazole. I found I felt much better taking anastrazole about the same time as shot. As it is preventative only, this made sense as the T spiked the ai would alongside. This does leave E perhaps unattended after a...

    anastrozole dosing & timing

    I've been ok'd to take an AI Inhibiter. I see if buy it from Empower at .125, .25, or 1mg. Of course getting the smaller doses is quite a bit more $ than my local Kroger which has 1mg for a few bucks (according to goodrx) So question is, is it worth the extra scratch to get the smaller dose or...

    Does Anyone Feel Better on an AI?

    I know this topic has been beaten to death and with a little legwork, I am sure to find dozens of threads on this, so I apologize.

    Once anastrozole reaches stead state, does E2 stay relatively constant all else equal?

    Assuming one is on anastrozole for a a few weeks, would the E2 levels stay relatively constantly all else equal or does it continue to drive E2 down over time? Basically what I'm asking is how long does one need to be on anastrozole to know if they are on the right dose?

    Hi fellows, I'm currently taking .125mg of Anastrozole 2x a week. I'd like up my dosage but not by a 50% and .125mg capsules are the smallest I can get and it's important I take them on certain days of the week as I try to match the peaks and valleys of my AI to my T levels. I use this...
