Looking for advice on this. I've never stacked SARMS before. Also wondering if I should keep an AI handy.
thanks
thanks
well, SARMs can't aromatize, so E2 shouldn't be a problem.Looking for advice on this. I've never stacked SARMS before. Also wondering if I should keep an AI handy.

Ostarine can cause estrogen issues due to lowering of SHBG. This causes an increase in free test and free estrogen. People usually use some type of AI along with Osta for this reason.well, SARMs can't aromatize, so E2 shouldn't be a problem.
but, they are suppressive, so you need to do a real PCT...

I ordered some Exemestane - 30ml @ 15mgs/ml, just to be safe. What would you recommend for usage? EOD or every 3? thanksOstarine can cause estrogen issues due to lowering of SHBG.

do you have any data I can read through on this?Ostarine can cause estrogen issues due to lowering of SHBG. This causes an increase in free test and free estrogen. People usually use some type of AI along with Osta for this reason.
Honestly I am not an exemestane expert at all, but you certainly would not have to overdue it. Just some Inhibit-E from SNS should do the trick to be honest. Nolvadex and or Clomid for PCT sounds like a winning plan for sure.I ordered some Exemestane - 30ml @ 15mgs/ml, just to be safe. What would you recommend for usage? EOD or every 3? thanks
Going to use Nolva/Clomid for PCT.
Yep, this is my protocol.People usually run this:
Nolva or Clomid
Reduce XT (cortisol control)
Test booster (for libido)
pre and post.I read though that data on Ostarine quickly, not sure if that was taken pre and post Ostarine...or pre and during Ostarine?
As for where I got the info that I stated on Ostarine: It is from Seth Williams. He has many videos on YouTube under NewRoids. Very knowledgeable dude and also entertaining!
Yeah. Well that makes sense then. Ostarine lowers SHBG = more free test and estrogen being utilized (used up) at the receptors. When you are done with Ostarine, SHBG remains low, as well as free test and estrogen as they are temporarily (hopefully) depleted.pre and post.
pretty significant change...
IMO Exemestane is kind of overkill for ostarine. I wouldn't start using it until you start seeing extrogen sides. Then I would probably dose it 7.5mg EOD.I ordered some Exemestane - 30ml @ 15mgs/ml, just to be safe. What would you recommend for usage? EOD or every 3? thanks

I thought AIs are more for preventive measures, instead of reactive.IMO Exemestane is kind of overkill for ostarine. I wouldn't start using it until you start seeing extrogen sides. Then I would probably dose it 7.5mg EOD.
Or just use an OTC AI like arimistane or Inhibit E
IMO,
running an AI here could cause a lot of low E2 issues....
we know that SARMs lower total E2 levels, but some guys might get gyno (based off the decreased SHBG theory).
^so if that's right, we're gonna be adding in an AI when total E2 is already low in hopes of preventing gyno from the wrong mechanism....
if gyno is an issue with a SARM, then raloxifene or a topical DHT cream would be a better concern, as it would simply block the ER and address the gyno issue directly instead of crushing E2.
yeah, it's good stuff for high E2. just make sure you take it in the evening and with a meal.OK thanks for the advice. I had it ordered, but it's still processing so going to see if I can cancel the order. If not, hold on to it for the future.
I have to point out that taking an AI is going to exacerbate the low SHBG issue, since AI's pretty much universally lower this:Yeah. Well that makes sense then. Ostarine lowers SHBG = more free test and estrogen being utilized (used up) at the receptors. When you are done with Ostarine, SHBG remains low, as well as free test and estrogen as they are temporarily (hopefully) depleted.
This release of free estrogen during Ostarine cycles is what is believed to be the cause of some people experiencing gyno flare ups.
Everyone reacts to SARMs differently and some people are just Gyno prone period and can get a flare up from the simplest of test boosters. Taking an OTC AI with Ostarine is very common. The late Osta Shred already had Arimistane as part of the formula for that matter. Of course the legitimacy of Arimistane acting as an AI has been brought into question but that is another whole discussion. It was included in Osta Shred with that intent though...haha!I have to point out that taking an AI is going to exacerbate the low SHBG issue, since AI's pretty much universally lower this:

and this would be on cycle or PCT?Yeah, I believe the consensus is to use something milder yet effective like 2 caps day SNS Inhibit-E or maybe 1 cap/day Letrone. Having something stronger on hand is always recommend but I highly doubt you will need it.
On cycle, but this is just my opinion from my research and personal experience. SARM for PCT.and this would be on cycle or PCT?
I am running 25 mg of Ostarine right now but I only started it because I strained my bicep a bit and was battling a sore shoulder for the past 3 weeks. Went on it for the ligament/tendon healing effects and I have decided to turn this into an unforseen cut/recomp while I am at it. I just added R-Andro Shred as it acts as an anti estrogen via increased DHT. So that is another option...it's not cheap but it is awesome!
I will probably get E-brake. The price difference will be negligible when taking the crap Canadian dollar exchange rate into account. thanks for your helpI know that product and have been eying it for quite some time as I love Acacetin. That should be a good choice but Inhibit-E has a lot of positive feedback and is more affordable. On the other hand, it would be nice to hear about your experience with E-brake. Yes, take during cycle..
just because it's common doesn't make it a good idea, tho.Everyone reacts to SARMs differently and some people are just Gyno prone period and can get a flare up from the simplest of test boosters.

just because it's common doesn't make it a good idea, tho.
if E2 is normal (or low), then taking an AI won't fix the gyno.... dealing with the gyno or taking a prophylactic SERM would be the more reasonable approach. and again, if low SHBG is the cause of the gyno, then lowering SHBG even more is going to cause more issues.
