If done stand alone do you have to taper or can you go 3ed to the end and stop?

[T-AD]

You could, but I don't see why you wouldn't just go 3/ed all the way through. Any particular reason you want to run it solo? Hyperdrol has a much better dose of 6-bromo and will have better effects as a standalone. Just curious...

[AZMIDLYF]

Would it be tapered after a cycle if used for PCT?

[T-AD]

Nope, no need to taper at all. The dosing in aPCT is meant to gradually get hormone levels back up to speed. You'll not need to "get used to it" or "ween off". Just go 3/day straight through for 30 days.

Thanks TD!

6-Br is a suicidal aromatase inhibitor. It binds to the enzyme, and essentially "kills" it. The body will make more in time, however, it takes a couple weeks for the aromatase levels to get back to normal post cycle.

The whole idea of tapering and "estrogen rebound" is reserved for competative inhibitors, such as letrozole. They don't "kill" the enzyme, but rather put it in a dormant state for a day or two. Think of it like bullets vs. tranquilizer darts. Since suicidal aromatase inhibitors "kill" the enzyme, there is no risk of the enzyme "waking up" to cause this rebounding effect.

6-Bromodione kills the enzyme and steals its wallet.

That explains it perfectly...why is estrogen such a problem when coming off a cycle? Is it because you have been supplying another source of test besides your own..consequently yours are shut down..then you stop the test supply and yours have not come back for supplying but the estrogen is still coming?

The body has a very complex system of checks and balances when it comes to stasis. Your "normal" levels are constantly being achieved, broken, and reachieved. When taking a supplement that affect testosterone levels, particularly when tricking the body into thinking that it is coming from an outside source, the body compensates for it by shutting down natural testosterone production. I think that in this system, if you were to stop the cycle of whatever, the body is still producing the same amount as on-cycle for a while until everything comes back to stasis. Estrogen rebound, or an upshoot in conversion, may occur after the cycle is finished as a way for the body to reattain that balance.

Estrogens send a signal to decrease androgen production. While you still need estrogens for the body to function properly, lowering estrogen levels via conversion of androgens to estrogens offers a 1-2 punch in recovering proper androgen levels.
