MENT is basically impossible to source right now - anyone found an alternative with a similar profile

Been looking for Trestolone Acetate for 3 months. Every source I used to use is either out of stock or stopped carrying it completely. I know the China raw ban has hit a lot of compounds but MENT seems especially hard to find. Was running it at 20mg per day alongside test and the strength and mental feel were unlike anything else I have used. Anyone found a reliable source or found something that covers the same use case?

AP Trestolone Blend is showing very limited stock last time I checked. Raw material situation is genuinely rough right now. The thing with MENT that makes it hard to replace is the specific combination - strength comparable to tren but none of the headspace issues, no aggression, no sleep destruction. NPP comes closest for a tren-free mass option but it is not the same compound at all.

MENT aromatises heavily, yes? I remember reading it requires actual Anastrozole because Masteron alone is not sufficient for E2 control at MENT doses. That complexity plus the sourcing difficulty makes it hard to recommend to most people. For a tren-free mass stack I think NPP at 400mg plus a short Dbol kickstart covers the use case reasonably well even if it is not the same compound.

Correct on aromatization - MENT aromatises at a higher rate than testosterone and Anastrozole is mandatory, not optional. Masteron at typical doses does not provide adequate E2 control for MENT. The dosing range is also wide: 5-25mg per day for most users going up to 50mg for extreme mass phases, so dialling in your specific response takes a cycle or two. Given current sourcing reality and the AI requirement I think most members are better served by established compounds right now.
