    my friend is currently on tren and test and said he needed some nolva due to irritated nipples. when he started taking nolva he said his body hardened up immediatley. is this normal?

    It makes sense...the Nolva blocks the absorbtion of estrogen...less estrogen = less water = harder look.

    This is debatable. Like above it does not reduce estrogen, so, an AI would be better suited than Nolva at reducing water retention IMO. Some claim it reduces water retention, others disagree.

    It blocks estorgen by competting with the same receptors estrogen does, preventing its effects. It does however, not block all of its receptor sites, so some estrogen related sides may arise.

    lower estrogen = higher test levels so in short yes it will harden you up, or get rid of the water

    It should work to a degree, but not nearly as well as Letro or A-dex.
    I can't tell as I always use a Nolva on and after for a few weeks.
