Description
Aromasin is the brand name for Exemestane, a suicidal aromatase inhibitor (AI).
Itβs primarily used to lower estrogen levels by permanently deactivating the aromatase enzymeβwhich is responsible for converting testosterone into estrogen.
π¬ Category:
-
Drug Class: Aromatase Inhibitor (AI)
-
Medical Use: Treats estrogen-sensitive breast cancer in women
-
Sports Use: Estrogen control during or after anabolic steroid cycles
ποΈββοΈ Why Athletes & Bodybuilders Use Aromasin:
β 1. Estrogen Control During Steroid Cycles
-
Many steroids (like testosterone, Dianabol, Deca) convert into estrogen.
-
High estrogen causes:
-
Gynecomastia (man boobs)
-
Water retention
-
Bloating
-
High blood pressure
-
π Aromasin blocks the conversion of testosterone to estrogen, preventing these side effects.
β 2. Post-Cycle Therapy (PCT)
-
After a steroid cycle, estrogen may spike while testosterone is suppressed.
-
Aromasin can be used in PCT to:
-
Lower estrogen
-
Help restore hormonal balance
-
Prevent estrogen rebound
-
β 3. No Estrogen Rebound
Unlike other AIs (like Arimidex), Aromasin binds permanently to the aromatase enzyme.
π This means estrogen doesn’t spike back up when the drug is stopped (called βreboundβ).
π How It’s Used in Sport:
π On-Cycle Dosage:
-
12.5 mg every other day to 25 mg daily, depending on estrogen levels and steroid dosage.
π In PCT:
-
Often taken with SERMs like Nolvadex or Clomid
-
Dosage: 12.5 mg every other day for 2β4 weeks
π Blood work is recommended to adjust dosage safely.
β οΈ Side Effects (If Misused):
-
Too low estrogen:
-
Joint pain
-
Mood swings
-
Low libido
-
Fatigue
-
-
Cholesterol impact β Can lower HDL (good cholesterol)
π Tip: Don’t eliminate estrogen entirelyβit plays a role in joint health, libido, and mood.
