do you mean estro is low and test is high?

because epi is an anti-estrogen......
Sorry, I'm just going off the assumption that epi would still create negative feedback on test levels, like any steroid would. If estro were low, and test high, well isn't that the typical male hormone balance to begin with? If that were the case, there doesn't seem to be much of a point in running pct; however, I doubt epi's anti-estrogenic activity is pro-active.

I'm in day 5 or so of PCT and I must say it doesn't feel like it. Some might say my opinion is biased but honestly my libido is still very high and I haven't noticed any shutdown really. It is still a little early but I will keep you updated. I was actually surprised my libido stayed high even when taking 50mg ATD/day (usually ai's kill my libido)

Well from my experience test is low since there is some shrinkage going on thus shut down.So even though this is an anabolic anti E a serm for the first week and taper down and then add an AI during the second at a low dose and taper up for the rest of post cycle would be most beneficial.

The Epis anti E effects on paper are long lived even after discontinuation but using Tam(for gyno prevention)+Clom(to get test jump started) and then an AI should be a fool proof method to get runnin and keep your gains.IMHO

Oh sorry I know that Im not Lake.LOL

People take SERMs and AI's during their cycles all the time, but still need proper PCT. I just don't see how epi would be an exception just because it's anti-estrogenic in itself.

i think we are saying the same thing sinner! the discrepancy might be that people may think that an AI is ENOUGH of a PCT for this product. where it seems a SERM is a better option. or maybe BOTH!

I'd say that's pretty much the hierarchy of the whole PCT deal. Dr. D's AI inverse the SERM method is probably the best route to take.

From experience having running only an AI for PCT, the cycle would need to be VERY mild for only an AI to suffice (weak compound for less than 3 weeks). The one thing I was trying to point out in my previous post is the fact that if you have reached HPTA shutdown, excess test converting to estro is going to be the least of your worries. Granted I don't know the harshness of Epi, I would say the normal 4-week cycle length is gonna shut you down pretty good, and a SERM is always the better of he two.

Agreed, I have said this MANY times in PM's to myself about the compound. In fact I just posted somewhere saying that just because the recovery in PCT is very easy because LH is kept high throughout (or at least not suppressed) throughout the cycle and it acts as a SERM, doesn't mean you won't get shutdown. You will get shutdown.

HOWEVER, with that being said I am a week into PCT and libido hasn't been low yet and my strength is still really high and I feel great (I ran 30/40/40/40). I am running ATD 50mg-75mg (slowly ramping up) and toremifene 120mg and ramping down. I am only running the PCT two weeks as I know that is all I will need. Don't neglect the SERM's!

There is a possibility to take this compound by pusing and possibly not shut yourself down. 20mg 3x per week with dosages not taken close to bed time should do the trick. You could take care of the high anabolism value and not have to worry too much about shutdown. There are a few people running logs on this style but they just started, I will be watching closely ;).

1month Results

Body weight start-230lb now-238lb up 8lb and slightly leaner

I ran Epistane @30mg/day

OBSERVATIONS

1) Within 2wks my pre-existing gyno was totaly gone
2) Libido and sexual function were way up.
3) BP was elevated but only slightly
4) Mood was excellent
5) No bloat
6) Energy was up
7) Recovery was great
8) Sleep was deep
9) Only minimal supression / the least Ive experienced on any anabolic

MACRO GUIDELINES

The only guidelines I had were to get in a minimium of 250gm of protein a day.Much of which came from shakes with oats.SInce I work 2 fulltime jobslife is hectic and sleep and rest were less than optimal.There were a few days that my eating was greatly compromised.

CONCLUSION

Epistane is a great strength and mass builder with low to no sides.With proper rest and nutrition results should be even better than Ive seen.

I too suffer from puffiness and a small lump under one nipple. I'm rehabbing a shoulder injury right now, so upper body workouts are totally out of the question, however I'm still working lower body a few times a week. I'm tempted to run the epistane in an attempt at gyno reduction, however I'll likely hold out until my shoulder is healthy again and I'm able to more properly lift.

And here I thought I was completely moved away from steroids/ps/ph usage, then this compound is introduced. It truly sounds like a miracle compound from all the logs I've seen, I can't wait to try it out.

The same with me Max.With all the others Ive tried they either made me feel like death warmed over,didnt give decent results,drove my gyno nuts or a combination of them all.

When I was told about this I tried it SOLELY for the gyno reduction and Im glad I did!!! This has been my best run of anything to date!!

Well Im only concerned with a min of 250gm protein but most days I get over 300.Im working alot so most junk food is cut out and I get most of my carbs from rolled oats in my shakes.

I make my shakes on a 1:1 ratio and I get alot in as its very convenient.

The body was willing but my mind fellout of the lift so I blew it!
