Does Nolvadex Decrease Water Retention?? Yes?? No?? Maybe??

**Millineum Man** · 04-05-2005, 09:06 AM

Guys, I've heard so many different opinions on this, but I'll go ahead and ask it here. From your OWN personal experience, not what you've read on the internet or what your buddy told you, does Nolvadex decrease water retention?? Yes? Or no? I'm about to start my First Cycle in a few weeks. I want to run a low dose of Nolvadex throughout to keep gyno away and cut down on the water bloat. I know Arimidex or Letro would be ideal, but I don't want to mess with my cholestral levels if I don't have to. Here's what I have planned.

Test Enanthate @300mgs every 4th day for 12 weeks(525mgs/wk)
Dbol @30mgs ED weeks 1-4
Nolvadex@10mgs ED weeks 1-10; 20mgs ED weeks 11-16
Clomid@50mgs ED weeks 14-16
HCG @1000ius 3 times a week weeks 11-13

Nothing fancy. I'm not interested in gaining 25-30lbs muscle, fat & water. My goal is 13-15lbs of lean, muscular bodyweight while staying a little on the dry side. Stats: 31 years old, 6'3" 225lbs and 9% bf. Will Nolvadex get the job done??? Thanks in advance for your input!!!

yes nolva will decrease water... it decreases estrogen in your body, which in turn decreases how much water you hold

Do you think I should still get some Liquidex? Or would the Nolvadex be enough?

**Mesomorphyl** · 04-05-2005, 10:05 AM

My opinion would be at that amount nolva is ok.

nolvadex competes for receptor sites arimidex stops the conversion,but you need a certain amount of estrogen to form receptor sites.nolvadex helps out with water retention but i would only do about 10 mg ed
