Formestane... - Lean Bulk Forums | Fitness Discussion Group

Formestane (4-hydroxyandrostenedione), is considered a pretty potent steroidal aromatase inhibitor. It's not as potent as Arimidex on a mg per mg level because Arimidex is.. very strong. But why is this AI not used more in PCT? Cost? Formestane (IMO) is a better choice of AI as opposed to ATD, Trione, or 6-bromo. I've also read that Formestane is a very good additive in contest prep to become tighter and harder for competition. Any thoughts to it's effectiveness, Dr.? Fellow members?

Hey jud, although I do not know much about Formestane it was recommended to me by Dr. Houser and I will be using it throughout an upcoming cycle as a sub for Adex. My plan is to use it every other day or so just to control estro levels and keep gyno at bay. However I am currently uncertain on the theoretical dosage as I haven't researched it much yet.

Really? Why didn't you recommend it to me instead of Inhibit-E?

I guess I should say favorite for specific purposes. I have just jumped on this bandwagon myself. I recommended Inhibit to you because ATD is potent stuff and you can gaurantee your dosages. Plus its cheap.

Form is nice because you can "feel it" if that makes any sense.

I have used it as a bridge into PCT. For instance, I ran P-plex, started Form towards the end of the cycle and bridged it into the standard SNS PCT stack for PCT. Except I tapered the form down and the inhibit up.

What specific purpose would that be? I have now revised my selection of AI from Inhibit E to Formestane. Previously you recommended Inihibt at .25mg EOD, I am unaware of what dosage to run Formestane at; any insight?

at a high does it can be suppressive

I would still use ATD considering your cycle

I found that I had to constantly very the dose with formestane. My guess is that the skin at application sites became overly saturated or somehow I was building a tolerance.

I would start at 5 sprays 2x day and taper down to 5 total sprays, when that lost effectiveness I would bump it to 10 sprays total and down again.
