Q: What would be the positive and negative repercussions of taking too many AI’s? We were all talking about it the other night, and it seemed like some people thought you could never have too much to prevent all of the sides of AAS. I tend to think just the opposite. Who is right? FYI, I’m taking 2.5mg of Femara, .5mg of Arimidex, and 100mg of Clomid, and Pheraplex.
A: This is a great question. A lot of people think as your friends do. Also, I can tell you that you don’t need all of what you’re taking either. The Femara alone will work and 2.5 mg is actually a bit of overkill. Less would do the trick. Too much estrogen suppression Blocking too much estrogen is actually a bad thing, and this is where guys run into impotence and all other problems with libido, etc.. Fact is, you’re even using more AI than you need.
Rising testosterone levels is a great reason to use AI, but too much estrogen suppression will kill your sex drive, make your joints ache and really elevate cholesterol levels. Erections are controlled by estrogen. Also, for guys who are not taking AAS but are only taking prohormones, though you still need AI’s, you don’t need what you’re on, for sure. Some AIFM or Gaspari Novadex or something might work better.
