Because even if you’re not experiencing noticeable symptoms, it doesn’t mean that having your E all out of whack isn’t going to mess you up.
I can’t believe I’m typing this out yet again but here goes:
On cycle, your T is high, and if you’re not using an AI your E is high. This might lead to gyno or bloat or whatever, but it doesn’t always, so you might think you’re fine. Even though your E is high, your T:E ratio is good so things like mood and libido are fine. Then you go into PCT with your T levels at rock bottom but your E is still sky high. Now you’ve got a problem.
Now this doesn’t always happen, and a lucky few can run some pretty high doses of test without any ill effects, and they come off just fine and everything’s kosher. But assuming you’ll be one of these people is risky business, and definitely not a practice anyone should advise.
Also, high E has been linked to some pretty nasty conditions such as hepatic adenoma. This is not a good thing.[/quote]
Most of the standard forum sticky stuff you see in steroid forums is meant as means to be idiot proof. Tons of guys who just bought gear, just blindly start taking drugs without doing even a modicum of research or blood work.
OP is planning to run 500mg/week of Test for 8 weeks. I’d love to see these larges masses of steroid users who get fucked up running a cycle such as this just because they didn’t run any AI.

As for an AI inhibiting muscle gains on cycle, that’s just bullshit broscience. You don’t know what the hell you’re talking about, and shouldn’t be giving advice to newcomers when you are clearly one yourself.[/quote]
What exactly discussed in a steroid forum isn’t largely based on user experiences?

Nobody said EVERYONE is prone to the effects of estrogen. Some people like myself don’t even use ais. That doesn’t mean I’m going to tell someone on his first cycle not to use one, especially if the potential side effects include bitch tits and a prolonged loss of sex drive post cycle.
You think people can’t get bad side effects on mild doses of anabolics? There was recently a kid here that started lactating after taking D ASPARTIC ACID.[/quote]
There’s risk regardless of what you take. Go look at the potential side effects of something as simple as a multivitamin, some are extremely severe. But how REALISTIC are the risks?
Do MOST people who run a 500mg/week Test cycle for 8 weeks get hit with significant sides in the absence of an AI? Or are most perfectly fine?
Lets not also forget running anastrozole comes with it’s own set of side effects which add their own risks to the equation.

OMG
There is just no single reason to not recommend someone not take an AI. Can most people get away without it on 500mg of test a week? Probably. Is it safe to do so? Absolutely not!
Are we just ignoring the whole hepatic adenoma thing?
Are we also ignoring the fact that it is MUCH harder to get rid of the problems from high E than it is to just prevent them in the first place?
And who says you have to run adex? If the “risks” (which are way less than those from high E) are enough to give you pause then switch out to aromasin.
I can’t believe you are being so obtuse about this.
Tell me what possible reason there could be not to recommend an AI other than some specious bullshit like “he might be ok”?
It’s like trying to explain math to a fucking primate talking to some of the retards on here sometimes[/quote]
If you can’t have a discussion without hurling insults don’t bother responding to my posts.
