How does Anastrozole/Arimidex work ?

Arimidex generally works by blocking the aromatoze enzymes, facilitating the decrease in the production of estrogen in the human body. With the decrease in production of Arimidex, the risk of exposure to breast cancer is eliminated. This procedure of treating breast cancer is known as hormonal therapy.

Anastrozole/Arimidex Dosages

Dosages of arimidex will vary from person to person. This is why blood work is essential to finding the perfect balance. One should start out at half a mg every other day and adjust as needed for the cycle. Some AAS users will not use an AI at first but they will have it on hand just in case. This isn’t always a good idea, as once you start noticing gyno or excessive water weight it could be too late to reverse. Since AAS will continue building in the body and aromatize (steroids turning into estrogen), taking arimidex at this point would be like trying to stop a car already in motion.

General dosages for men: 0.5mgs per day or every other day. Remember, it’s steroid dose dependent.
