Kind of a different post, potentially. I am curious about what the seasoned and more experienced members feel would be a more appropriate AI to take to balance or counteract sebum production and acne specifically. I have responded/tolerated both aromasin and arimadex as well, and have found both to be effective, in terms of reducing or eliminating other estrogenic sides previously.
To provide a bit of context, I was running a relatively mild cycle, but with a few different items and had increased skin oiliness and acne, on the shoulders primarily, come on fast and fierce at the end of a 10 week blast.
I was running:
300mg TEST/ week
300mg MAST/ week
25mg Proviron/ day
2 IU per day of HGH
500 IU every other day of hCG
The acne really came about, I believe, around the time I started using the hCG. I was essentially at the end of my blast of approximately Seven weeks, was originally planning on going 8 to 10, but I decided to cut things back to my TRT dosage of 125 mg per week to see if that would level things out on the acne. Initially I think it got worse for a few weeks. 8 weeks back into my TRT dosage now and it SEEMS to be starting to clear up, but still have super greasy skin and my scalp is starting to itch a bit…..
Is it crazy to think about an AI on a TRT dosage? Or would it be reasonable to try something like 1mg Arimidex EOD for a week or two to see if started making a difference.
And yes, I will acknowledge that bloods first is the more responsible thing to do, but I’m in a rural part of the country and it’s a major pain to get bloods done….
Thanks in advance for any and all feedback
