Agreed!
Both Torem and Nolva are better choices if one prefers the SERM route.
I do prefer the AI route though, as all the above serms increase real E2 (they themselves also show up as E2 on labs so it makes hard to determine the exact amount of increase), increase SHBG (so lowering Free T to Total T ratio) and have vision sides.
But it is harder to get the dose right, especially if you live in Europe or somewhere without access to LC/MS estradiol test. There are formulas for correcting the immunoassay E2 result with your CRP number, but it's still harder than just throwing in a serm and checking your free test results.
