Opinions on letrozole stopping muscle gains?

[dragonheart]

I started using 1.25mg/day of letro about 3 weeks ago, and the last 2 weeks I havent gained any weight at all.  I gained 14lbs my first month on cycle and had been going great, then when I started using letro it seems like ive come to a complete stop.  I suspect I am losing fluids and gaining muscle at the same time, which would lead to no weight increase but I could be wrong.  So im asking with my estrogen supressed completely, will that cause me to not gain any more muscle?

I have been thinking of upping the letrozole to 2.5mg/day in an attempt to get rid of this little bit of gyno ive had since puberty, but if its stopping me from gaining muscle I will just discontinue it all together as the gyno isnt noticible at all hardly.

i dont see how it would stop gains.

i have heard of slowing gains, but never stopping gains. I prefer letro as my ai. It gets me dry dry dry. I have grown on it even when cutting

Of course it will stop "weight" gains by wiping out estrogen.

you need "some" estrogen. eliminating estrogen is only good for gyno problems or drying out for a contest.

This is why i never run it. i keep adex on hand but everytime i use it my gains halt within 2 weeks.

due some research on how estrogen reacts in our body and you will see that when taking AAS you actually want estrogen for gains.

a friend recently told me that letro only works for gyno recently caused by aas use, and wont reverse slight gyno caused by puberty.  Anyone know the truth about that?

Agree probally would make best gains with no estrogen control.  But it wont be pretty.

You talking about bloat?

i agree but i train for maximum strength gains so i consider gains in strength more important than if i'm holding some water.

The vetrinary steroids have a precise ratio of estrogen/ Progest. This is to put Max weight on cattle ETC.
Duchaine postulized that testo alone is not that anabolic, needs some estrogen to really grow.
Some Plers use test Preporations w/ estrogen, they could give a damn if they have big old man titties,
they want a record.

it's funny, even on 1000mg of test E a week i never get bloated. i still have spider web viens in my forearms, quads, shoulders and calves. i've never had a sore nipple and never had ANY estrogen related issues. BP is always perfect but i eat very clean.

That is rare!  I'd still keep Ai's on hand. our Body chem gets thrown out of whack every now and then.

I have just about everything on hand...

Thanks Rim, i know my body through and through. i chart and record everything i take, inject, blood work, diet, cardio, weights and then i compare how my body responds to certain protocols...everything is documented and if i have a question i research the how and why. plus i know several world class powerlifters and top level amateur bodybuilders. i have alot of knowledge at my finger tips to say the least.

I'm very scientific by nature so i consider myself a chemical enhancement project with health being my main concern. I'm systematic about everything in life and it's helped me be more successful.

in the end i hope to release all this information to the public to help destroy many myths about steroids and other drugs. i have a doctor working with me and he knows everything i'm doing.

Well im talking about estrogenic sides such as water and fat retention.  I guess that is a type of bloat?

Water retention is a good thing in my opinion, as long as your BP is good.

Ive never had a problem with fat retention, i guess i eat clean enough and do enough cardio to prevent that problem. i've never lost sight of my abs during any cycle, even on 1000mg test and 400mg deca i had a 6 pack and was eating 4k calories a day.
