Letrozole estrogen rebound

[ribbonsharkie]

What's the risk of estrogen rebound on letrozole yes arimidex is better ik but it's not accessible for me and letrozole is very easier to get for me as well as being extremely cheap. I'm on 0.625 mg eod rn thinking abt switching to 1.25mg end or 0.625 mg Ed

is it really a "risk"? isn't it a certainty?
I suppose you'd always have to taper off, if you want to quit no?

No i dont want to quit rn im just asking in case i sometimes forget a dose or something how big is the possiblity of major estrogen rebound

if you miss a dose you’ll be fine, the half life is 40-50 hours, probably near zero estrogen rebound, just don’t miss doses consistently. if you want to come off taper off over the coming week or two

in case i sometimes forget a dose

if you forget a redose on any compound that influences estrogen, you're just straight up retarded and should not even be touching this stuff

a significant % of what people say are "steroid side effects" are just bad estrogen management, of which one part is fluctuation
you absolutely have to keep the estogen level as stable as possible
that's why asin mogs here (yet asin still gets mogged by other e2 control methods), because it doesent rebound

is asin even potent enough to bring t levels up like let does?

of course, it's all dose dependant
however, I think the dosage - response curve is not linear with asin, meaning the first few milligrams will have most effect, and then increasing it will net less and less suppression compared to the dosage increase
this means that it's easier to not crash you estrogen to 0, even if you overshoot the dosage

for most, doing something like 2.5mg ED or EOD will be just fine

wait wtf are you talking about? bring up T levels?
AI is for supression of aromatization, not "binging up T levels" lol, any T increase is just insignificant, and comes from the test that would have otherwise converted, but couldn't, due to lack of aromasote enzyme

if you want to increase your T levels, just draw more oil in the syringe

if you're a high aromatizer natty including AI in ur protocol can increase your testosterone, look up "AI (Letrozole) monotherapy 8 weeks in" in r/Testosterone.

sure, I don't doubt it works, but the increase is going to be that exact amount that would have otherwise converted
which is never going to be a terrific quantity, even in top percentile aromatizers (like myself)
