Estrogen Question

Dave_19 · Jan 15, 2003

Well im also done with my Test, i only have 2000mg left i am starting to get the symptoms of Gyno, such as the soreness and I can feel a small lump, but Is something like nolvadex even neccesary if its not vissible, I would like to save the money if possible, I can get it whenever, but just have delayed because im not sure if its really worth doing sime im almost done. Also what are the mental side effects to estrogen, I have not been feeling like myself lately. I guess the best way to sum it up would be saying im really emotional about things that I normaly wouldnt care about, or atleast to the extent.

DON'T WAIT - what you're experiencing are the "warning" signs of onset gyno. If you haven't been taking an anti-e (which it sounds like you haven't), START IMMEDIATELY with nolva or proviron. I'd also throw in a tab of letrozole until it subsides.

For me, I'd also "cut-back" on the test until this is reversed.

I agree totally with xcel if your having these warning signs now ,you need some anti-e's ASAP because it will only get worse when you stop the test

I could not agree with xcel more. The are a few bodybuilders I know who had the same response (or genetic predisposition to gyno). I read some studies in Germany where nova was being used with 72% success. There is another study in England showing a greater success with the anti-e ARIMIDEX (anastrozole) at a rate of 87%. There are some reports that show similar or better results with FEMARA (letrozole) and EXEMESTANE (Aromasin). I had a few men go off the test., or any androgen, and start one of these. They have all seen their gyno go away. What does not go away is your genetics and predisposition. It seems to come back more quickly the second time around with a lessor chance of it being reveresed totally.

I strongly advise you to make an anti-e a vital part of every cycle.
