INFO: How to choose a good anti-e or anti-e combination.
I wrote the following in response to a qestion posed by Lozgod. I felt that this would be a good stand alone thread since it delved a bit deeper than the origninally titled post "Nolvadex vs. Proviron "
Which anti-estrogen (anti-e) combination should I use?
Direct Answer to the Question:
My choices would change based on what I was using in my cycle:
1. If I were not using deca in a cycle, then my first choice would be Arimidex alone since it is one of the strongest, most effective anti-e's.
2. If I were running deca in a cycle, then I would use Proviron due to its secondary effect on erections to counteract deca dick.
3. If I found via blood tests that my lipids (specifically HDL) where heavily and badly affected by my cycle, I would use Nolvadex with Arimidex, or Nolvadex with Proviron (based on whether deca was in the cycle, as noted in sections 1 and 2 above) or, I would choose Nolvadex alone, with a solid good PCT plan to prevent estrogen rebound (see below).
Background Information:
Clenbuterol is neither an anti-estorgen (anti-e) nor a steroid hormone; it is a beta-2-symphatomimetic. Clenbuterol is a strong anti-catabolic, which means it decreases the rate at which protein is reduced in the muscle cell, consequently causing an enlargement of muscle cells. For this reason, people use Clenbuterol after a cycle to minimize catabolisim and thus maintain maximum strength and muscle mass.
Proviron, arimidex, and L-dex (liquid version of Arimidex) inhibit the aromitization of testosterone to estrogen while Nolvadex blocks the estrogen from doing any harm by blocking the estrogen receptors (estrogen antagonist).
The good and the bad:
Nolvadex is good to have on hand if you begin to have gyno symptoms, because it blocks the estrogen. By the time you see any bad symptoms due to estrogen, it's too late to use an aromitization inhibitor such as Proviron, arimidex, or l-dex.
Again, Nolvadex does not control the amount of estrogen, it just blocks it from getting to receptors, so after you stop using Nolvadex, there might be a lot of estrogen still in your system that can do harm. Some have experienced a reboud effect when using Nolvadex: After they stop using it the estrogen that has built up in the system reaches estrogen receptors and causes problems that were delayed by using Novladex.
Think of it like this:
Proviron, arimidex, and l-dex prevent the fire from starting. Nolvadex suppresses/temporarily extinguishes the fire after it has already begun.
Furthermore:
Inhibitors such as a-dex and femara effect lipids(primarily HDL) because estrogen greatly contributes in the stabilization of cholesterol. If you inhibit the production of estrogen, the lipid environment can become "unstable." **
Nolva being a SERM, helps eliminate blood estrogen by binding to the receptor, but doesn't prevent conversion (as noted above); in addition it mimics liver and bone estrogen which help in creating a healthy heart environment.**
**--NOTE: The two paragraphs (immediately above) marked with asterisks are paraphrased paragraphs from a post by PHEEDNO.
Extra info:
SERM
SELECTIVE ESTROGEN RECEPTOR MODULATORS
The group of drugs classified as SERM selectively acts on estrogen receptors present in different tissues and organs: breast, uterus, bones. Their agonistic action on bone and lipid metabolism has been documented in clinical trials. Positive influence on bones appears as the inhibition of bone resorption (confirmed with bone markers) and estrogen-like increase in bone mineral density, and in consequence decrease in the risk of osteoporotic bone fractures. Their agonistic action on lipids is shown as the decrease in serum total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, without significant influence on HDL-cholesterol and TG.
SERM do not stimulate the uterus and breast, contrary to estrogens which increase the risk of neoplasms. Their unfavorable influence on the activation markers of hemostasis and fibrinolysis was not found.

What about Femera-letrozole ? You didnt mention it.
-
05-28-2004, 02:50 PM #19
Yeah Femera needs to be put in there. I have been trying to learn as much as possible about femera lately. Strongest Anti E on the market.

I think femera needs to be added for it to be permanent in my opinion. Great post but needs all the anti-es and there info.

Try to keep it in the same vein of the first post if you decide to type something. I'll obviously mention that it was written (or paraphrased) from what you write.Last edited by BASK8KACE; 06-01-2004 at 10:59 PM.

I think these are all anit-e's:
Liqui-Atorvastin
Liquid Exemestane
Liquid Letrozole
Liquisteride
Sildenafil Citrate
Tamoxifen Citrate
Polyethylene Glycol
if anyone could tell me what each on is in as tearms it would be greatly appreciated

I thought the bloat from deca is from progesterone not estrogen. so armidex would be useless. And Adex cannot penaterate the fat cells for estrogen. But Fammera can. Thats why Fam would be a better choice than ldex. But for building muscle Ldex would be better cause it leaves like 6% of estrogen anabolic activity while Fam would only leave 2% estrogen activity and block the rest. Also Fam will increase the growth hormone release and keep LDL in check. While the others will do the opposite.

gains are more solid, and are not hindered as it is theorised with nolva use.

I disagree a bit with using proviron with nolva in the case of bad lipid profile....i would opt to use nolva alone because proviron have been shown to badly affect blood lipid profiles in spme ppl.

hey....i thought Deca and Bromo comes together as a combo...Bromo should be preffered in a cycle with deca alongwith any other anti-e (nolva).
just my hummble opinion...
Respect
