Another "F"ing Nolva question!
Ok, I did the search and all that came up about nolva was for using it against gyno. Well my question is about using it post cycle instead of clomid. A source of mind has nolva alot cheaper than clomid. Now, using it post cycle should it work just as well as clomid and also in what dosage cause I know with clomid you do the typical 300/100/50 split but I don't have an idea where to startwith the nolva. Any thoughts on the matter?

I made a post about gyno very in-depth. and the number one contributing factor in gyno is the mammary gland wants to function due to high levels of prolactin being sent by the pituitary. Dopergin and bromocriptine are the best defense against gyno because they suppress the prolactin hormone. Yes high amounts of estrogens cause the rise in prolactin and there are a few other glands that release prolactin but number one the pituitary is the active gland in regards to mammary function...
and two... if taking nolva while on a cycle you will yes block estro receptors but your estrogen levels will become very high, once off your cycle the flood of estrogens can cause a gyno reaction... so a more often post cycle therapy of nolva is taken during and well after or just after... The response is so much better after & during testosterone cycles... because post cycle levels of estrogens wont be so high because the ratio of estro to T is now significantly lower... during high test cycles the androgens aren't so weak that the build up of estrogen can harm results...

If your gonna use nolva use it as a post cycle therapy or along with bromo or dopergin during a cycle.
if worried about gyno use an anti aromo like proviron or liquidex to stop conversion from the start...
Big Texan read this It a good post from a good bro... I dont and have never used clomid for post cycle... If this doesn't explain I can break it down for you...

Clomid and Nolvadex
I am not sure how Clomid and Nolvadex became so separated in the minds of bodybuilders. They certainly should not be. Clomid and Nolvadex are both anti-estrogens belonging to the same group of triphenylethylene compounds. They are structurally related and specifically classified as selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) with mixed agonistic and antagonistic properties. This means that in certain tissues they can block the effects of estrogen, by altering the binding capacity of the receptor, while in others they can act as actual estrogens, activating the receptor. In men, both of these drugs act as anti-estrogens in their capacity to oppose the negative feedback of estrogens on the hypothalamus and stimulate the heightened release of GnRH (Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone). LH output by the pituitary will be increased as a result, which in turn can increase the level of testosterone by the testes. Both drugs do this, but for some reason bodybuilders persist in thinking that Clomid is the only drug good at stimulating testosterone. What you will find with a little investigation however is that not only is Nolvadex useful for the same purpose, it should actually be the preferred agent of the two.
You just saved me a lot of typing. Thanks :)
Oh and it is debatable whether to use clomid or nolvadex post cycle... many people with a lot of expertise/experience have debated this exact issue to a standstill- with studies backing up the use of each compound. I would use both.
