Crashing E2, Aromasin vs Adex

Maybe this belongs in “Dumb Questions” but someone help me along here.

I’ve been coming across many posts here as well as other forums where people are saying it’s much harder if not impossible to crash E2 with Aromasin. A lot of these same posts say it’s easier to crash with Adex. But I’m completely lost on the logic of this. Aromasin is a suicidal AI, it seems to me that it would be way easier to crash with Aromasin being that once you take it there’s no reversing the action, no rebound, it’s never going to “release” the enzyme. Am I missing something? Was there a study somewhere that showed Aromasin won’t crash E2? If there is, I can’t find it and of course the people posting this theory never cite any supporting evidence.

Aromasin from my understanding is much stronger, lasts longer, and if crashed takes significantly longer to recover.

That’s my understanding as well, which is why I’m confused on some of the posts I mentioned. Idk if they are

From what I've read and experienced;

- Arimidex is easily adjustable, effective, and works well within roughly a week. It has "rebound" potential as far as the non-suicidal properties are concerned. Not a bad thing. I've never crashed my estrogen on Arimidex. Only taken some, dryed out, and adjusted my dose after noticing the side effects of lowered estrogen. 1mg per day for two days was well more than enough, and 1/4-1/2 of a milligram was good enough to use as little as twice per week afterwards, and this was on high doses of aromatizing compounds. This wasn't for bodybuilder show effect however.

-Aromasin was at both times very potent, and caused libido issues at as little as 12.5mg - in a single dose for a single day. I also used it on a separate occasion while using trestolone, notorious for it's potent estrogen side effects. That time is was somewhere upwards of 60mg. Talk about regret. Absolutely fucjing destroyed my estrogen and all I could do was try to offset it with hops from beer. Not a good idea. I have also used it at about 5mg per day for a few days and it works roughly as well as Arimidex, but being it's so damn potent and not reversible, I think Arimidex is a much better option.

I've also crashed my estrogen on a drug called letrozole before. That was equally as hell and garbage shite as the 60mg instance with aromasin.

My preferred method has mostly been nolvadex, and/or raloxifene, but they too seem to end up having side effects - nolva after about 4-5 weeks and raloxifene at random. No Bueno.

I think it's safe and fair to say that it's worth the money to run an easily adjustable dose of Arimidex - take the time and make small adjustments in accordance with your stacking and cycle efforts. Also consider the fact of the matter that environmental estrogens exist. There are also OTC alternatives like DIM, something that can be found in broccoli.

ive been using primo, there was minor hair shedding with loading it but has tapered off for the most part. It keeps my estrogen consistently in range but took about a month of usage for stability in my case. I think using a low/med amount of primo and minimal arimidex is the meta.

ralox - dried my joints out
nolva - made me very groggy in morning

never touched armosain or letro but they are both suicide ai's i think

I've never used adex but exclusively used aromasin the past decade. I've crashed my e2 once and that was on my 2nd blast mid cycle taking 12.5mg EOD for 2 weeks. I read bad info on forums, was naive, and learned after the fact that elevated e2 is acceptable when test is high. Legit aromasin is strong stuff and can crash e2 pretty hard. My .02 / YMMV

Doesn't matter which one, start at 1/4 dose of either one, And move up from there. 60 aromasin per week is way too much, IDC what the cycle is.
