Key product parameters
What is Anastrozole?
Anastrozole, marketed under the brand name Arimidex, is an aromatase inhibitor primarily used in the medical field to treat hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It is also popular among bodybuilders for its ability to manage estrogen levels during anabolic steroid cycles.
Mechanism of Action
Anastrozole works by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which is responsible for converting androgens into estrogens. By reducing estrogen production, anastrozole helps prevent estrogen-related side effects and supports a favorable hormonal balance.
