AAS cyclists do NOT need an AI from day one and such a suggestion is bro-science pure and simple!
GCM develops in ONLY 30% of AAS users and that's a FACT, so
what your suggesting treats the 70% who will not develop this condition and that's OVERKILL.
Where on earth is the study that has taken every single person who has ever taken AAS and proved that only 30% of them got gyno? Thats right. It does not exists. If a study that does not include every person in the world states this 'fact' then it is just that, a 'fact'. Broooooooo science.
GCM is primarily GENETIC fella with a few other predisposing Risk Factors one being the use of AAS
It is not. We all have mammary glands, estrogen attaches to it, Testosterone converts to estergen via the aromatase enzyme (another thing we all have). AIs mitigate this.
People need to LEARN not to worry about their silly E-2 level unless symptoms of and elevated E-2 are present bc TJATS when AI or SERM therapy IS INDICATED!
I've seen many Meso members suggest prophylactic AI treatment even in the absence of baseline labs and knowing how many of these guys are "Blasting and Cruising" that's a recipe for hypo-E
signs and symptoms which can be much WORSE than a "sore tit" !
What do baseline labs tell us about what is going to happen? What does it tell other than what exactly is going on hormonally at the time of testing. Baseline labs provide no information about AI use. Mid cycle labs on the other hand do.
