What is Arimidex
Arimidex is a non-suicidal aromatase inhibitor, helpful in managing estrogen levels during the cycle. Athletes and bodybuilders often turn to Arimidex, as it’s milder than other AIs and there are fewer risks of crashing E2 levels.
If you haven’t used an AI before, it’s better to start with Arimidex. Even if you don’t know how to adjust the dosage yet and accidentally crash your estrogen levels, they will get back to normal after a few days.
Arimidex Benefits
If you are considering using aromatizable compounds, you should add Arimidex to your cycle. It will reduce your estrogen levels by 50–65%, mitigating estrogen-related side effects.
Unlike SERMs, Arimidex prevents estrogen conversion by blocking the aromatase enzyme. It isn’t a PCT compound that can help you restore your natural testosterone production, but it’s a great estrogen blocker.
By adding Arimidex on-cycle, you can prevent fluid retention and gynecomastia.
Arimidex Side Effects
Some of the Arimidex side effects may include:
- Hot flashes;
- Headaches;
- High cholesterol values;
- Fatigue;
- Mood changes;
- Insomnia;
- Hypertension;
- Nausea;
- Joint or muscle pain.
Contraindications
Arimidex shouldn’t be used by individuals who have been diagnosed with or predisposed to:
- Severe cardiovascular issues;
- Osteoporosis;
- Liver dysfunction;
- Atherosclerosis.
Arimidex Dosage
The recommended dosage varies between 0.25–1 mg/EOD. However, most users start with 0.5 mg/day, as it’s more effective.
You can take Arimidex 2–3 weeks into the steroid cycle, or you can monitor your blood tests and make this decision based on your estrogen levels. But you need to be careful and remember that preventing gyno is always easier than treating it.

Common Questions About Arimidex
Can Arimidex Reverse Gyno?
Arimidex can help prevent gyno, or even reverse it, as long as it hasn’t progressed. If you miss the first signals, gynecomastia can become irreversible without surgery.
Are Arimidex and Nolvadex the Same Thing?
No, they aren’t. Arimidex is an aromatase inhibitor used during an anabolic cycle to lower estrogen levels and prevent estrogenic side effects.
Nolvadex is a SERM and a popular PCT compound, helpful in restoring test production, but it doesn’t have any influence over water retention or increased blood pressure.
Do You Need Arimidex on TRT?
You can take Arimidex on TRT if your estrogen levels are increased.

reliable source, legit gear
My first order of Arimidex from this supplier. Properly dosed and effective as it should be. A lot of sources have under-dosed or fake Adex. Don't gamble. Get the real drug from a reliable source.
On my first Test E cycle, 500mg/week. At some point, nipples became very sensitive. I emailed MG team and was advised to get Arimidex ASAP. They rushed delivery and with Arimidex everything was back to normal. Thanks guy, for taking care of me quickly and efficiently.
