Stopped taking Arimidex - what do you think ?

[bengelha]

300-400 mg Testosterone per week. I have been on 'HRT' after an 8 week course of test 400 and deca 400. I got a couple months to go on the HRTyet before I conduct a PCT and evaluate. I stopped the Arimidex last week after feeling weird. I worked out harder and heavier than ever but felt no soreness at all. Felt I was not growing. So this feeling started about the time I was told to take Arimidex ( because I wanted a high HRT ).

I think Arimidex + Reversitol was eliminating too much estrogen. Just starting to get a little nip erection here and there but nothing like the constants I got back in December when I got worried. I was told not to worry about hardening up ( erect nips ), I was told that 'nip sensitivity' is not hard nips but 'sore' nips.

Will listen to body and hop back on one of them if I feel I need to.

Open to advice.

According to this I certainly could have been overdoing the estrogen suppression:

* Remember, maintaining normal levels of estrogen is an important part of maintaining libido, muscle recovery, and testicular function. Therefore, it is undesirable to overly suppress estrogen levels. The natural anti-estrogens in Sustain Alpha gently balance and control estrogen levels, without overly suppressing them.

More fuel to the fire...

"at a 400mg per week of test is a very low dose. you also do not want to block out all your estrogen as it is essential part to making good gains, it's when the Estrogen becomes higher or equal to your test levels is when problems will begin "highly unlikely on that dose" you want to build mass "quality" water retention is a must to allow you to lift heavy with little risk of injury while on a cycle. when you come off the cycle the water will drop. the bottom line in order to gain quality mass you must lift heavy "push hard on every lift" you can work on finishing after your cycle. "

from what i have read your estrogen levels when coming off of a cycle arent as high as you may think and remember that estrogen is necessary for muscle growth and to keep your gains. Arimidex almost completely eliminates the estrogen in your body drop the adex if you are worried about gyno you should be taking nolvadex in your pct!
