Arimidex or Aromasin?

Looking to get an AI to have on hand just in case I need it in the future. What is your go to between Arimidex and Aromasin, and why is one better than the other? Thanks in advance!
 
I think some say Aromasin is better. I can't speak on that but I've used Arimidex with no issues. I suggest you do your research on how they differ.
 
There is a lot of info out there on the different mechanisms they work through. I prefer aromasin.
 
I've ran both aromidex and aromasin. Mg to mg you use less aromidex but I always felt shitty after awhile of taking say 1-2 mg a week I never had the rebound that's said can happen woth aromidex.
Aromasin is what I'm using now and have been using for 2 years. I'm running 12.5 mgs eod right now because I'm doing a ment and low test cycle and I feel fuckinf great.. been taking aromasin eod for 2.5 months now.. and before that was always 2-3 times a week.. I've never had any issues with aromasin long term .. I've also read a fee reports where they said aromasin had some anabokic.properties.. not sure how ..just relaying info..
I personally would take aromasin over arimidex.
But there's lots of guys that swear arimidex is best.. not for me though.
Oh and I found arimidex is easier to lower e2 to much to fast. Aromasin for me was easier to dial in and maintain
There's my 2 cents from my personal experience.. if I was brand new again I would choose aromasin instead of arimidex
 
Thanks for sharing your experiences. So far I have not had any problems with E2, even though it is a tad high. I believe the high Testosterone is countering any negative effects of the E2. But I did order some HCG due to atrophy and when that comes in, that might affect E2. Also in the future I am planning to do a cycle of NPP, and that may also raise E2. Just want to be prepared for the future.

Hcg will raise e2 .. depends on the dose ..on how much it raises it . I'm taking 300mcg 2x a week no issues.. more fullness of.my nuts.. better sperm volume and IMHO better sensitivity.. I went higher in the past and fucked my e2 up bad.. big lesson learned.. by the time I realized what was going on I already had acne pop up bad.. still fighting that.. 4 months later.. almost all gone now though
 
If you haven’t started your cycle/blast and just want to keep estrogen in check then use arimidex, if your estrogen is to high on cycle then I always use aromasin to bring it back down.

I was thinking of starting at 250 2x a week and adjusting from there if necessary. I have some HCG ordered, just waiting for it to arrive. Fertility isn't a concern for me, just want to correct the atrophy to the balls. If it produced better loads, that's a plus...but not something I'm set on getting out of HCG.

Well I am on 450mg / week of Test-E and my total T came back at 4594 ng/dL and my E2 was 91 pg/mL. I have no nipple sensitivity, gyno, bloating, water retention, etc. But I'm just concerned that once I add HCG, it may affect E2...and in the future if I run NPP, that may increase E2 as well.

HCG definitely aromatizes like crazy for me I feel it's even moreso than test soon as I add it in I can tell.

Prefer Asin but also noticed more shedding of hair with Asin, too lazy to look it up but as a poster above said something about anabolic properties.

On trt levels it's just Asin PRN or once a week at 6.25-12.5mg for me.

Given that you have no physical or mental signs of high estrogen compared to your testosterone, maybe get some nolvadex (you still need estrogen)

Everyone’s body is different, you will need to work out how sensitive you are to aromatisation.
 
I started with aromisin but it was to strong for me. So I switched to Adex and works much better for me. My lipids are fine when I run 500 mg a week test E and .5 adex every 3 days…

Those are good numbers.. I prefer e2 no higher then 70pg.. that's me .. just feel better all around.. 40-50 is awesome for me. If you have aromasin.. and you add hcg I would start at like 6mg on pin days.. 12mg max could be to much.. you can always add more ..once you take to much well its sucks unless you have a bunch of tne.. or prop.. still sucks just sucks for less time

Yea that is the last thing I want to do is crash my E2. However, my natural Test level was 550 and my E2 at the time was <5. It was not a sensitive test, but I had low E2 and had the symptoms for sure. Extreme fatigue all the time, anxiety, depression, irritability, etc. So I definitely don't want to crash my E2
