arimidex vs aromasin?

[Adionne10]

I know both are the 2 main AIs people go with. Personally, I use Adex at .5mg 2x a week currently. But I always see talk about people bashing one or the other. Is it along the same lines as Test E vs Test C? Or can someone fill me in on the main differences and the pros and cons of either please. No matter how much I surf around I never find definite answers. Thanks guys.

I'm not 100% sure of the fine details but the main idea is:

Arimidex blocks the estrogen receptor leaving the estrogen circulating in ur system, resulting in a rebound flooding the receptors once the drug is out of ur system.

Aromasin attaches to the actual estrogen molecule and kills it off before it can bind to a receptor, no rebound.

I have heard pros and cons to both so if u have dialed in adex with ur body then i'd stick to that. I personally use aromasin as the idea of the rebound doesn't sit well with me.

I didn't know any of this. Makes sense to me. I'll take like half tab arimidex as needed. Usually every week or week and a half and I feel like if I don't I get the sides of having high estrogen. I am gonna look into aromasin

They are both stopping the process of hormones aromatizing into estrogen by either killing or blocking the enzyme so both work great.

I just hope we dont all get breast cancer in 30 years from using AI's and SERMS lol because these are all breast cancer drugs.

Fingers crossed that doesn't happen lol


Arimidex is hit or miss with me. It's very strong even at .5mg. usually when I start to feel anxious and kind of off I'll take half a tab and it goes away and I feel great. Other times I'll take it and feel like garbage. Like I get a little red face and feel dried out and shitty. I think I may prematurely take it and it just drops my estrogen too low, or of course just sides from taking it in general, but feel that would happen everytime if that were the case. I genuinely don't like it

Thanks for the info, I have some .25mg Adex but might look into aromasin. I wasn’t aware of the potential rebound.

With everything else we put into our bodies that's the least of our worries LOL

I still flip back and forth with them but definetly prefer aromasin most of the time.

Some people don't respond to adex, I am of them, so I run asin. Both essentially do the same thing
