Although arimidxe does increase testosterone slightly, it is more often used in combination with other steroids to reduce estrogen levels in the body. Many anabolic steroids will be converted into estrogen or aromatized in the body, resulting in many unnecessary side effects, such as bloating and acne. Arimidex is one of the best compounds to reduce the aromatization of steroids.






Arimidex (commonly known as anastrozole) is a new drug for the treatment of advanced breast cancer in women. In particular, Arimidex is the first of the third generation of selective oral aromatase inhibitors.. Its role is to block aromatase, and then block the production of estrogen. As many forms of breast cancer cells are stimulated by estrogen, it is hoped that the development of this disease can be prevented by reducing the content of estrogen in the body. That's the basic premise of Novadex, except that the drug blocks the action of estrogen rather than its production. It was dramatic, at least. In patients receiving treatment, taking one tablet (1 mg) a day produces more than 80% estrogen suppression. Due to its strong effect on hormone levels, the drug is only suitable for postmenopausal women, and the disease has progressed after treatment with norvax (tamoxifen citrate).
Side effects such as flushing and thinning hair can also occur, no doubt more severe in premenopausal patients.



Arimidex shows great potential for male athletes who use steroids. So far, drugs like Novadex and proveron have been our weapons against estrogen overdose. These drugs are very effective, especially in combination. But Arimidex seems to be able to do it more efficiently and with less hassle. One tablet a day (1 mg), the same dose for clinical use, seems to be that everyone needs an exceptional effect (some even report that only 0.25 mg a day has a good effect). When used with potent andaromaticity androgens, such as two naphthol or testosterone, it can effectively prevent breast development and * retention of water in women. We have made great progress in combination with propargine. One drug can prevent the conversion of estrogen, the other can block the decrease of 5 - α, and the related side effects can be effectively minimized. Here, the powerful androgen testosterone can theoretically provide incredible muscle growth and be as well tolerated as Pheretima. In addition, the quality of the muscles should be higher, the athletes look harder and clearer, and don't hold too much water.





However, there are some problems with the use of aromatase inhibitors in long-term steroid therapy. Although it effectively reduces the side effects of estrogen, it also prevents the beneficial properties of estrogen from becoming apparent (i.e., its effect on cholesterol values). Studies have clearly shown that when aromatase inhibitors are used in combination with steroids such as testosterone, the inhibitory effect on HDL (good) cholesterol is more pronounced. Clearly, estrogen plays a role in reducing the negative effects of steroid use. Since the estrogen receptor antagonist Nolvadex has been shown to have no anti estrogen effect on cholesterol levels, it is undoubtedly the first choice for estrogen maintenance in people who are concerned about cardiovascular health.





Arimidex has another major drawback: the drug is expensive. Tablets can easily be sold for $10 each, and if used regularly, they can become quite expensive. Obviously, the price of an adjuvant drug may be much higher than the steroid itself, which is doomed to be unpopular with leisure bodybuilders. On the other hand, competitors may welcome the product. It can better resist the side effects of androgen therapy and make the cycle more comfortable than Novadex and / or provinone. As the number of countries producing this drug increases, we may be able to expect prices to fall. A private synthetic version of "liquid Arimidex" has also been made "for research purposes". Generic labels are also available, and both forms represent a very cost-effective option to buy branded drugs.
