Just curious to see if anybody else has done it. Opinions? Effects? I've looked online and have pretty much come up empty. Apparently it's not a popular thing. Neither is a full squat though, so...

Anybody take an estrogen blocker while not on or after a prohormone cycle?

You can't just knock it out though. Not without consequences.
Trust me when I tell you that if your estradiol (E2) levels get too low you won't be happy. Aromatase inhibiting drugs (Arimidex, Anastrozole, etc) can take you down close to zero. You'll notice changes in cognitive ability, the performance of your junk, and though you won't notice it directly it can effect bone density and other things.
So then you would need regular lab work, tweaking and perfecting of a medication schedule, etc, and all for what? Because you dont think you need some estrogen?
Maybe Dr Dave will chime in here.Last edited by Strychnine; 04-24-2015, 09:17 AM.

Estrogen is an important part of a balanced male endocrine system, just like ladies need a little test (though for completely differing reasons of course). If you're within your normal range, don't jack with it.
There are no short or long-term benefits of intentionally reducing estrogen that I am aware of, which is why you are coming up empty-handed. Trust me, if there was a way to pack on muscle by way of estrogen modulation, you'd have heard about it as commonly as you do with test today.

Here's an old thread with some info by Dr. Dave...
Now with many companies having recalled their products containing ATD, is there anything still available OTC that is still effective and reasonably priced?
I used a bottle of the AIFM but it's been a while and I really fell of the gym wagon before finishing the bottle so I didn't see any results. It's also been a while so I really can't recall how it made me feel.
I'm currently taking Erase Pro by PES along with AnaBeta Elite and DAA. I'm on my second week so we'll see how it goes.

I would have guessed you would ask this question in advance of finishing. So yes its misleading. Had you said I'm done with a cycle, should I take an estrogen blocker? It would have made sense.
Its like the guys asking about a PCT a week after their cycle.

Similar to someone wanting to boost test naturally, though reducing E isn't conversely proportionate in any way.
