10 Weeks on Cycle – Persistent Facial Bloat (Test + GH)

10 Weeks on Cycle – Persistent Facial Bloat (Test + GH)
Currently ~10 weeks in, sitting at 250mg test/week (split 3x weekly for stability). Running GH as well.

Main issue: noticeable facial bloating compared to pre cycle baseline. Miss my leaner facial look, and the puffiness hasn’t improved. AI (aromasin) doesn’t seem to have much impact. I’m not running HCG or enclo since fertility isn’t a concern (already got a girl pregnant, so planned on being infertile long term).

Questions:

1. Is this bloating more likely estrogen-related water retention vs. GH-induced sodium retention?
2. Does this usually normalize after some time, or is it more dose-dependent?
3. For someone considering cruising indefinitely, would lowering dose or managing diet/sodium be more effective than relying on AI?

Looking for input from anyone who’s run similar protocols or dealt with persistent “moonface” despite AI use.
