AI side effects

[Meow_Wolf]

I was at 400mg/wk for about a year and 2 anastrozole/wk.
I know that's more than double TRT dosage... anyways. I started to develop parasenthesis (itching, tingling, prickling, and burning skin when I get warm) and phototoxicity ( I break out in hives in sunlight). After researching, I concluded it was the A.I., switched to Aromasin with my doc, and in two days I broke out in hives for a few hours so I dropped all AI, dropped my Test to 175 mg/wk. I've been here for about a week now, I still itch when I get warm, hoping that subsides soon. And I still break out in hives in the sun. It seems these sides should subside in 1-2 months.... worst case I have read it can take up to 20 years to subside. I pray to God that's not the case, I'm freaking miserable and have not worked out in over a week. That being said, has anyone seen this before?

I haven't seen something this serious before. It sounds like you have some bad steroids, like the gear is bad quality to begin with.

I doubt it's the AI if you're using 2 tabs arimidex/week.

I would say lower your dose to 100mgs/week testosterone so it's TRT and drop AI completely, then start a lot of water drinking and n2guard.

i've never heard of someone being allergic to AI's but okay i guess it is possible

there is no reason to freak out. you realise you can run so many other steroids that DO NOT aromatize where you would even need an AI. and second why in the world are you on 400mg a week of test for a year anyway? that is just reckless

bros have your back here
important thing is to cycle and gear up right
get it from trusted and approved bros

 

[JasonPriest]

try using primo or EQ without an ai and see if you have issues

It's prescribed by my doctor, where I am 400 mg/wk of Test is max legal dose. I'm switching to sub q, 3 pins a week @ 175 mg/wk, no AI for a week now. I was also on Deca 200 mg/wk the whole time too. I dropped that completely also.

I've seen research of people developing side effects from AI's 6 months to a year after being on them. I don't know for sure what it is yet, but man, it hurts. Lol
My gear is from a pharmacy.
I'll look into n2guard, never heard of it.

I appreciate the feedback and hindsight, yea I know being on that high a "trt" dose for that long was not the best idea. I need a good long reset.
I appreciate the feedback guys.

That sucks man and I am sorry you have been dealing with that. I would do the best you can to be patient and let your new TRT dose take effect. It will take weeks for things to stabilize.

I was running 600 tren ace for 9 weeks, week 10 and 11 @ 700 mg/wk, and week 12 @ 800 mg/wk. That was like 15 weeks ago..
No sides from it other than not sleeping through the night. No progestin sides, caber on hand.

I have Tren E and EQ on hand now for another cycle I was about to start until I got this crap going on. I heard I should run Mast with EQ to help with estrogen also and staying at 200 mg/wk Test and let the other compounds do the heavy lifting.

Any thoughts on adding Mast to EQ and Tren?

Never heard it called n2guard.
I have TUDCA and Milk Thistle.

It is very unlikely that AI is the problem, it is more like fake gear. Reduce your TEST to 100mgs per week, stop AI, add some N2Guard and drink plenty of water

It's a mess. If you called it TRT why was you on an AI and either way - why on an AI for a year?

I did in July, but may do it again since it started after July

 

[Tiger Salman Khan]

Everyone has different reactions....

 

[RoySimpson]

You should get bloodwork done!
