[B-Lath]

5,8" 23y.o.a 182pds 1cycle deep on my second week of pct

Can someone explain to me why even though armidex and nolvadex are both estrogen blockers, ppl say they work differently? If so which has the better ability to block estrogen?

[wormwood]

iam sorry i didnt mean standzadol i meant estrogen blocker why do pay say they work diffrently and i mean better by its abilty to block estrogen

well for starters one is an aromatase inhibitor and the other is a serm...

so lets see i just read on the two. Arimidex (anastrozole) is an estrogen stop i halts the production in your body i safe for long term does not effect ILGF raises test levels.
Nolvadex (tamoxifen citrate) Binds to the breast tissue and blocks estrogen from the receptor, it has been know to affect ILGF, slight raise in test. Estrogen has also been know to help build muscles so having floating est around isnt bad

I don't think any will help with your acne, that would be your fluctuating hormones levels what are causing you to have acne. What was the cycle? how often did you inject?

if you want an ai to use during cycle go with adex or exemestane and save the nolva for pct.

Any one else have comments?

DHT causes acne...

Arimidex is an AI, Aromotase Inhibitor - it actually stops estrogen production in your body from what i've read (not necessarily ALL estrogen as well need some). Nolvadex is a SERM - it selectively binds to estrogen receptors and blocks the estrogen from doing the same. Basically competes with estrogen to bind to these receptors. It acts on breast tissue specifically, hence the 'selective' in the name.

Arimidex is better for a cycle... As increased test will spill into oestrogen

Arimidex will inhibit aromatase so you will keep more test...

Nolva will stop it working..

In a nut shell but all that has been said...

^^^ This. Generally, Arimidex while 'on' if you are gyno prone, or start showing signs of estro-related sides. Nolva for PCT.

As a reply to Marcus300, The cycle was Test E 250. I Injected 1ml(250mg) 2times a week for 12weeks. Pct was 4weeks of clomid 50/50/50/50 and nolvadex 40/40/20/20. also at week 5 of the cycle i noticed slight soreness in my nipples so i had added in 10mg of nolvadex a day.
