If you struggle on TRT please try AI, my own experience:
This is not my story but I have been through this with my abroad doctors while on TRT.

No two, three, four ect, people are equal.   I personally feel I need a AI if I just look at bottle of test.  My labs on low TRT dose confirmed. But I also grow on 200=250nmg of test a week.  No one ever belived I was on low dose.  When I take dose up.  I grow even more but my conversion rate of testosterone to estrogen is also higher.  A lot of the top guys are just gifted and grow on low dose.    Read on mate.

Hello boys (and girls?). Just wanted to tell you how my testosterone therapy became way better once i started doing arimidex.
I started out with TRT over a year ago now and I read from many that you should go without AI and that estrogen was only beneficial. The more estrogen, the better, many said.

I was part of a particular group on facebook, driven by those "testosterone optimization" guys who have a youtube channel aswell. One individual there kept telling everyone that AI was very bad, never good, only toxic and could actually kill you long term.

This made me not follow my doctors instructions, who gave me AI and told me to use it, but I was afraid of it so i didnt.
I tried everything, 200mg a week, 150mg a week, 100mg a week, 250mg a week, I tried e7d, e5d, every day, every other day.
I felt better than being low testosterone, for sure, but I never got that "wow" feeling that many report on testosterone. My libido, erections and energy was also very bad mostly.

Eventually, I decided to just try arimidex, 0.25 to start out with, this with my 15mg ED injection of testosterone enanthate.
Literally the day after my first dose of AI, I woke up with a morning boner, which i found kinda interesting. The coming 3-4 days I felt better, not super good, but there was a distinct difference in my well being, energy and how ... "confident", I felt.

Okay, interesting I thought, so I try another one then, after 4 days I took another 0.25 arimidex and wow, within hours I got hit with the strongest libido since I was a teenager (im 47), I was VERY horny, more horny than I can describe.

I couldnt believe it. The next day, energy was up, way up, actually, and for the first time I felt driven and motivated.
Now Im still doing that, I take 0.25mg arimidex two times a week on my current 15mg testosterone E protocol and I feel VERY VERY good, best ever on testosterone. I feel so motivated now, so hungry for life and Im so horny every day.
Ive also met a girl, 13 years younger than me, who I have alot of fun with now with my newfound libido.

So if you struggle with TRT and have never tried AI, give it a shot, you might be surprised. I was afraid of it for such a long time because of this group I was part of, they always said AI was terrible and you felt better on only testosterone... Not in my case.
When TRT is done correctly based on the medical literature, you won't need an AI except in rare cases of true gynecomastia1. However, some people may still need an AI while on TRT, especially if they are on a high dose of testosterone or combined with HCG
