Ever wonder what pathway testosterone takes after it is produced by/injected into your body? I found it interesting that you body naturally produces 5-7mg testosterone/day, which is 35-40mg/week. So, your average Testosterone cycle is bringing your T to about 20 times their natural levels 😀
857
--> DHT is the reduced form of testosterone that is primarily responsible for hair loss (this pathway can be inhibited by finasteride (Propecia, Proscar)
--> We all know what estradiol is, and why it's so important to inhibit aromatase, but we sometimes forget why it is important not to crush these levels altogether. In addition to it's role in overall muscle gains, estradiol play a role in normal brain function, as well as bone health.
I got this info from http://www.endotext.org/male/male2/maleframe2.htm - There is much more in depth and recently updated info on this page, I highly recommend checking it out.

Great for those guys who might not know much biology! Might want to add that the aromatase pathway can be inhibited by aromasin (as well as arimidex and letrozole!).
Great article linked also! Going to skim that.
