Why do we use AI if studies show no need?

[CaptainAll]

In famous studies by Bhasin (the 600mg of Testosterone Enanthate), the subjects were injected with the whole 600mg once a week.
All subjects showed increased muscle mass, strength and no change in sexual functioning, erectile function. No AI had been deployed, so just Test. These were many subjects, so not just one or two person/persons. At 600mg per week injected once a week, surely their Estrogen levels would be high. But no issues to be seen contrary to most bodybuilding forums and Reddit?

How is it that in the bodybuilding world, AI is necessary for folks to keep estrogen under control, to keep erections and sexual functioning but in studies, nothing in sight?

Testosterone dose-response relationships in healthy young men - PubMed

Testosterone increases muscle mass and strength and regulates other physiological processes, but we do not know whether testosterone effects are dose dependent and whether dose requirements for maintaining various androgen-dependent processes are similar. To determine the effects of graded doses...

Care to explain why? What is your problem?

Care to explain why? What is your problem?

because it seems to me you are implying that millions of bodybuilders are wrong for controlling their estrogen by citing a single study that has nothing to do with estrogen or A.I.

You don't understand how studies work, you don't understand how estrogen works, you're are very ignorant thus using an "appeal to authority"-esque citation (literally the most basic surface level generic study there is )

I don't know if you're trying to make an assertion or you just want to be spoonfed basic information but you should stop posting because we are WAY past this point.

We didn't just start injecting steroids yesterday

Never used an AI personally. Always read how horrible they are for you and avoided them. If I started showing signs of high estrogen I would cut back my dose

I forget his name (Calum something he was on Fouad Abiad's podcast years ago) but he said he has clients run as much of a compound as they could without needing to counter side effects and would add in compounds and keep doing the same thing mitigating the need for AI's and such. Obviously come show time I'm sure it was a bit of a different story but seemed like a smarter approach to me
