Bigkarch,
On the Fluoxymesterone issue: The studty I posted has a quote: "Final height exceeded pretreatment predictions for CDGP + GSS by 6.1 +/- 3.5 (SD) cm (GP-BP) and 5.4 +/- 3.2 cm" IMHO this would not be the outcome if the Fluoxy aromatized. IMHO the fact Fluoxy supressed the natural hormone level some and kept a androgen present to promote growth allowed the extra height without the estrogen advancing bone age. You are correct it was low dose Fluoxy used in the study. I still believe that high doses of Fluoxy do not aromatize till proven different. (If you can find a study on the conversion of high ammounts of Fluoxy to estrogen please post) I have seen the same thing you read on Fluoxy in high dose out on the internet. I think that information is wrong.
When I read the post again it mentioned also that Boldenone was in with the "worst offenders" talking about aromatization to estrogen yet Boldenone is just
Equipoise & just like
Deca as the post mentions will aromatize. Deca "yeah it aromatises" IMHO both not a worst offender though. In a cycle both
Deca & Bold. seem to act as a worst offender because of progesteronic effects, but neither are major converters to estrogen.
On the
HCG I do not take it through the whole cycle. I should have been more clear on that. I take it at the end of 2nd or 3rd week on a cycle I forget which week without researching again. (This is because at the 2nd or 3rd week in the body will still react well to
HCG) Then I take HCG my last two weeks of cycle. I never use more than 500mg per my Doctors warning. I guess as you state I should take it all days of the week or at least 5 straight. I believe I did three straight then every other day last two weeks. I took Adex whole cycle & upped the adex while on HCG & just post cycle Adex seemed to work well for me. I don't use HCG post cycle as it tries to increases estrogen levels & is thus counter productive. My PCT ends with just Adex & tapers down Adex till I am at just Tues.-Thurs. .5mg Adex so I don't get any rebound I hope.
I went back & read the
Femara (Letrozol) thing & found you were correct. I read the post fast you did mention conflicting studies & specifically did mention the
Femara IGF1 conection. I need to point out both Anastrozole & Femara have those same type conflicting studdies.
Great thread this is becoming with all the studies being posted.
