Advice requested...
8 weeks into a 500 mg test E run and loving it, but one minor hicccup.
So the cycle has gone really well for me so far, as I have gained some good size while keeping my eating very clean.
One issue...I missed 1 day of my aromasin last week due to not being able to get back to my home town because of Hurricane harvey and because I am peaking out right now on week 8 with test levels and therefore estrogen levels...I noticed that my nipples are becoming slightly puffy, not itchy, not sore, just moderately puffy. So I'm taking aromasin at 12.5 mg everyday and have been for 4 days now and I know it's reducing estrogen because most my bloat is gone and my face is super dry (typically oily). I have a much more dry look. I got gyno when I hit puberty at 15, so I know I am super susceptible and am just a little paranoid with any signs at all. I have aromasin and arimedex on hand and just purchased letrozole just in case nothing else works. My question is: Should I bump up from 12.5 mg a day to 25 mg of aromasin ED or should I look into going more extreme with letrozole (I know that will kill the estrogen entirely and will knock down all libido, which should be a last resort). I know I will get comments about we don't know without blood work...blood was taken on Saturday and just waiting anxiously for the results. Obviously, this is estrogen buildup, not prolactin given that I am only taking 500 mg of test. If you were in my shoes, what would you do for peace of mind while you wait on the bloods? Move to 25 mg ed of aromasin. Trying to get out in front of this thing.
Here is 5 days ago with descent bloat right before puffy nips started to show up and now that bloat has disappeared and everything is dry since using aromasin at 12.5 mg everyday for 4 days in a row and now 5 including today. Nips are still slightly puffy today.
Your feedback is very much appreciated and Thank you in advance.
