tamoxifen vs Arimidex (Anastrozole); E in general (Propecia, Avodart, Spiro, DHT & hormones ...)

» Maybe you had counterfeit Arimidex; there is a ton of research on its
» effectiveness on inhibiting E. I doubt you could take it and not see a
» result unless you were taking fake meds; I work in the industry and
» outside the US >20% of meds are fake - especially branded, high-priced
» meds like Arimidex.

» As for more DHT as a result of taking Arimidex, I have not seen research
» that suggests this. Have you? Without such research I can just as easily
» speculate that HPTA feedback would maintain the T level; BTW the amount of
» E relative to T is 1/100th, so you would only be increasing T by 1% by
» completely blockading E production. Further, it is very clear that a
» complete blockade on T-to-DHT does not prevent hairloss in the majority of
» people. There are many more factors to hairloss (or prostate cancer) than
» DHT; much of the new research points to E.

» Regarding SHBG, there are many question marks around your point. Firstly
» >50% of T at the hair folicle is generated at the follicle; either from
» cholesterol or from Adrenal DHEA. This is not transported via SHBG or
» Albumin binding. Secondly, hormones that are bound by SHBG can and do
» dissociate and there are suggestions that SHBG-bound-DHT might be active
» in binding to the follicle (the SHBG aligns the DHT in one theory); so the
» classical view of bioactive T is very questionable for sites that express
» the 450 class enymes as hair does).

» No one knows the answers.
I had the astra zeneca thing... Tested my E2 before taking it:17pg/ml if I remember, and two months later: 17pg/ml (same lab)...
I'm on 2.5mg finasteride daily and know that the ideal dosage would be 4mg (I tested it) to retain my hair. Problem is: libido is weak at 2.5, so what would it be at 4, long term? What's your own dosage of finasteride currently? What would you advise me? You seem to be very knowledgeable.
