I am a low-dose AI user, recently switching to 12.5 mg of Aromisin from .25 mg Arimidex per week. I could never control estrogen on Arimidex. It was either too high -  like E2 the 70s, or it would crash to single digits. Aromasin keeps my E2 at around 30. Without any AI my E2 winds up being at 80 or 90. I simply do not buy into the whole “do not use an AI” fad. I think it’s a bad practice when the Youtube TRT specialists  make generalized statements like this. Obviously if you can control estrogen without needing it, all the better, but if one has symptoms or, simply wanted to see how he would feel on one - I don’t see the harm in going on something low-dose.


A lot of the problems with aromatase inhibitors are because men take too much of them and wind up crashing their estrogen. Keeping E2 in the 30 to 40 range is not an issue. I simply failed to see the logic when someone goes on testosterone replacement therapy and their E2 gets to 70, 80, 90 or even 100 and people say “don’t worry - it’s fine.” It’s not fine in my opinion  – this does not exist in nature.
