Aromasin and Nolvadex

[John99Test]

Would it be ok to use RS Aromasin at 25mg per day and say 10-20mg of Pharm Nolvadex to combat any gyno related issues of Test Ent at 1G per week along with 20mg dbol per day for three weeks. I am somewhat estrogen prone. Would the nolva take away from the effectiveness of the Aromasin? or would it just stop any unbound estrogen from attaching to the breast receptor sites (nolvadex blocking) Again, I dont know too much terminology. Macro?

exemestane alone should be sufficient, if its not then you may want to consider letrozole instead. OR look to other agonizing factors (insulin and PgE2 in particular).

since you are using pramipexole, prolactin should be a non factor. (and prolactin issues can stem from all androgens, not just progestins-- though progestins tend to produce more severe prolactin issues (likely because of PRLR upregulation as well))

have you cut back the finasteride? .5mg or less per day?

Yes sir! Haha you have a great memory!

I feel like the letro is too much for me. It dries me out too much. I'd like to just stay on the aromasin. So you're saying there would be no additional benefit to take the nolvadex right? Would it interfer with the action of the Aromasin rendering it weaker?

 

[Macro]

not "no benefit" but the additional benefit, IMO, is much outweighed by sides and since it lowers liver igf production, nolva is not great for those wishing to put on muscle.

 

[Macro]

now, there are exceptions. people exposed to exogenous estrogens (xenoestrogens) and those with high level tertiary conversion (dht to 3 beta diol) might be well served by adding a SERM (low dose) and Toremifene would be a better choice in that case.

Gotcha. Thanks bro.

So it seems like other than PCT there is really no use for nolvadex anymore.

would not go that far, and as you have noticed not particularly a fan of tamoxifen.

it has its uses, and with respect to post cycle, despite the fact that most people are better off with clomid for PCT. Some, those not that suppressed HP wise but suppressed G wise will see better results with tamoxifen (as it increases gonadal output of testosterone, via its particular E/not-e action more so than clomid). and for some people suppression of IGF is what they need when gyno occurs, now there are other ways but not everyone knows or feels comfortable with them. So while its aged and its comparative usefulness has decreased, tamoxifen will likely be "in the game" for a long time to come. And like most drugs it does have its niche uses in which it is superior, at least for some individuals.
