Haven't run gear in a few years. What's changed these days?

[tricks79]

Hey Team,

Been a while, miss you all. I haven't run gear in some time, (but been on TRT the whole time). Wondering what's changed with the norms for protocols in last few years. I've been reading around on the forum, looks like some supply issues are affecting the way people build their stacks.

I was planning on keeping it basic, just running 750mg test-e / week, with some Aromasin for ai.
Is Aromasin still the go to for Ai? Is there better methods now?
Is there something that's become a standard "must add" to every stack? Or is the old tried and true stayed the same?
(please God no Tren).

Was considering trying Primo for first time in my life but it seems like supply issues are hitting that especially hard, so maybe not.

1 too many injuries took me out of the game for a long time (volleyball is a dangerous sport). But I've built a home gym, back on the horse.

You should be fine with just test if it's been a while. You could no doubt run a lower dose as well.
Are you sure you need an ai?

If you’re still considering primo - Pinnacle offers it as far as I know. Picked up 2 vials and no complaints. Not sure if they’re still in stock though. Shoot them a email.

Even on 500 I needed ai badly. Remember my first cycle, christ was borderline lactating lol.

Thanks. Saw the MATRIX list still has it on there but last update was October 2025.

I prefer a suicide inhibitor much more than a blocker but that is just me. Lots of AI out there and will be for many more years to come. What has changed- Price!!!
