Femara (Aromatase Inhibitor) Effects

[Guest guest]

Hello All,

I started Femara on Tuesday. Since then, I have noticed some positive side

effects and some slightly frustrating ones as well.

The most noticeable side effect is that I've started sweating again while

exercising. When Estradiol levels were too high, I barely sweated much at all.

Additionally, nipple sensitivity has greatly decreased, as has the length of

time per day they are erect. Even a week ago, my nipples were perpetually

erect.

To give Phil his deserved due, my libido has definitely suffered on Femara.

However, I am willing to tolerate it for a while. I'm going to see if Femara

can reduce the water weight I've put on due to testosterone replacement therapy

and potentially even reduce the stubborn abdominal fat which only makes

hypogonadism worse. The way I'm thinking now, if I can accomplish both of those

things, then I'll switch to another aromatase inhibitor that isn't quite so

strong.

I've modified my workout to be more intense for a shorter period of time, to see

if that helps. The strange thing is that, because I am frequently active, every

other part of my body looks toned except for my stomach. It looks very strange.

As always, if anyone has any suggestions or words of guidance I would sincerely

appreciate it.
