^i highly disagree...nolvadex is great for pct. It doesn't completely block all estrogen just helps control it, it helps good cholesterol, it helps with the minor estrogen sides...the other AI's are to strong in my opinion unless it's someone with great estrogen sensitivity...

Re: Do you use anti estrogen when doing just HRT?
Ok, tell me more abut the formeron dosing, etc. It says it is transdermal. So what do you do rub it on your skin?
TGB has Formeron 120ML 50mgs/ml. So does that mean a ml per day? If so thats great for the price of $44 for a 4 month supply.

Thanks for your feedback

Originally posted by Diggler28 View PostClomid and Nolva are SERMS, not AI's. They act in two totally different manners. AI's inhibit the aromatization process and SERMS do not. AI's are for on cycle use and should never be used for pct. SERMS are more suited for PCT. And nolva can be used to halt a gyno flare up while on cycle while the proper AI and dose addresses the aromatization process to bring estro in check.

And my wife laughs at me when I'm on pct. I get so emotional braid her hair, cry at movies.

Re: Do you use anti estrogen when doing just HRT?
You mention 3 drugs - Novla, clomid, and arimidex - and you refer to them as anti-estrogens. On thing that is important to realize is that only 1 of those 3 is an aromatase inhibitor and that is Arimidex. Clomid is strictly for PCT use only. Some people use Novla during the cycle but it too is mostly used in PCT. If you truly want to control your estrogen then you need to use an aromatase inhibitor, Arimidex. I'm not familiar with formeron but someone referred to it as an suicidal AI which is what letrozole is. Arimidex and Aromasin are not suicidal AI's. I use .5mg of Arimidex every 2-3 days when only running a trt dose of test, 200mgs. Depending on the person, of course everyone is different, you might not even need an AI on that dose but most people will need to run something at low doses. If you were running 100mgs/wk then I would feel comfortable saying that an AI is not necessary at all.
