Arimidex(Anastrozole)-1mg

Medical Use of Arimidex

Primary Purpose:

• Treating postmenopausal women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer.

• It inhibits the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens (like testosterone) into estrogen, thereby reducing estrogen levels.

Dosage:

• Standard medical dosage: 1mg once daily.

• Sometimes used long-term (5+ years) depending on treatment response.

🔸 Use in Bodybuilding & Steroid Cycles

Why it’s used:

• During anabolic steroid cycles, testosterone levels spike, and so does estrogen due to aromatization.

• High estrogen can cause:

  • Gynecomastia (development of breast tissue)

  • Water retention & bloating

  • Fat gain

  • Mood swings or depression

Anastrozole helps by:

• Preventing estrogen buildup

• Keeping your Testosterone:Estrogen ratio in balance

• Improving muscle hardness and definition by reducing water retention

Typical Bodybuilding Dosage:

• 0.25–1mg every other day (EOD), adjusted based on:

  • Steroid dosage

  • Personal sensitivity to estrogen

  • Blood work (ideal estradiol levels: ~20–30 pg/mL for males)

💡 Important: Too much Arimidex can crash your estrogen, leading to joint pain, fatigue, low libido, and poor mood. Balance is key.
