Letrozole carries with it many benefits that may aid the individual in HRT, TRT, a Post Cycle Therapy (PCT) plan, as well as during the actual cycle process itself in the name of side-effect prevention. Further, Letro also brings about another benefit revolving around physique conditioning and this can be and is often very important to many competitive bodybuilders during their contest prep time.

For the HRT or TRT patient if he is prescribed Letrozole it will more than likely be because he suffers from low testosterone. Low testosterone can affect the individual in a host of negative ways such as increasing body fat, a loss of muscle mass and strength, loss of libido and sexual function, depression, lack of energy and a host of other issues. As Letrozole actively stimulates testosterone production this medication is sometimes used for that very purpose but more times than not, while it will increase production, for the man who truly suffers from low testosterone it will not be enough and some form of exogenous testosterone must be applied.

When we look at the PCT process it is similar to the individual who is supplementing with Letrozole for HRT; the purpose of a PCT is to stimulate natural testosterone production. When we supplement with anabolic androgenic steroids our natural production is suppressed; the total duration of the cycle, the compounds used and the total dose will affect this to a degree, some steroids suppress more than others but suppression will exist regardless to some level. For this reason one could supplement with Letro during his PCT to stimulate the release of LH thereby starting natural testosterone production yet again; however, this is not a practice we are particularly fond of and for good reason. The primary purpose of a PCT plan is to stimulate natural testosterone production but it is not the only purpose; the total purpose is to return the body back to normal and this is difficult to do with Letro. Letrozole greatly reduces estrogen in the body and while this is a hormone that can cause unwanted side-effects for the anabolic steroid user it is also a hormone we need for proper bodily function. We cannot “normalize” when our estrogen is so readily suppressed and it is for this reason we will always prefer SERM’s for PCT needs over any AI, including Letrozole.

Without question Letrozole’s primary beneficial role is during the actual anabolic steroid cycle itself. Recall from above, many anabolic steroids convert into estrogen and it is by this conversion that causes a buildup of estrogen in the body that some of the most common and well-known anabolic steroid side-effects exist. The conversion of estrogen is caused by the aromatase enzyme or aromatase process and when this occurs such side-effects as Gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) excess water retention or bloat, high blood pressure and cholesterol issues may occur. By supplementing with Letro while on cycle we can prevent these problems from occurring or at least greatly aid in the process; cholesterol and blood pressure will also be largely determined by your overall lifestyle. However, unless the individual is ultra-sensitive to Gynecomastia if he supplements with Letrozole the odds of Gyno as it is commonly known occurring is very, very slim. Further, the same can be said of water retention; if an individual is bloated and watery while on cycle and using Letrozole he’s probably simply eating too much and estrogen buildup is not the problem. To give you an idea of how powerful Letro is as a side-effect preventer, if an individual is supplementing with anabolic steroids and Gynecomastia starts to flare up, if the individual starts supplementing with Letrozole when the symptoms appear, in most cases the flare up will be reversed and no Gyno will exist. No, it will not help the ultra-sensitive but most it will. Very few medications can boast such a claim; while many supplement with Nolvadex, a very good SERM for Gyno prevention, if symptoms show all the Nolvadex in the world won’t help you.

The next and last true benefit is directly linked to the appearance of the physique and for most this encompasses the world of competitive bodybuilding. As Letrozole actively reduces the total estrogen in the body many bodybuilders will supplement with Letro during a contest prep diet, for the less estrogen you have the harder the physique will be; assuming you are lean. Most bodybuilders who follow this method will generally run a steady every other day dose for several weeks before the show and in many cases increase it to daily the final 7-14 days to provide this effect. Without question contest preparation with Letrozole will aid greatly in providing a harder and dryer physique; two important components of many in competitive bodybuilding.
