    Question about Nolva

    If a person where to use aromasin for AI, would there be any downside to also using nolva while on cycle?

    Doing home work for a test/deca cycle late next year (500/400 per week) and thinking about aromasin / caber / why not nolva?

    There is no drug interaction between aromasin and nolva.

    Why do you want to use Nolva during your cycle?

    Well currently I don't, reading and thinking, I'm a newb with only one test cycle under my belt, next cycle will be just test, maybe a little var (20mg/day) added in just because I have it on hand. If everything goes picture perfect after the next run I want to add another compound and deca seams to not be that harsh. After I use up what var I have I don't plan on ever touching orals again, var seams nice but damn by the time you pay for a 60/80mg per day cycle you can buy a LOT of other good gear.

    I'm a little worried about aromasin dosing, everywhere you look it's different, some guys say as low as 6mg eod and others are saying 25mg ed, I think I've settled on 12.5mg/day as a starting point but I won't get blood work until 5 weeks in, seams like the nolva would just be a little extra gyno protection so why not, what's the harm?

    Which AI and dosage were you using for your previous cycle?

    Going to bed.
    You should stick to the same AI and dose that you used for your previous cycle, without using Nolva. (Assuming everything was ok).
    If you going to use Nolva anyways just to be safe. You can run it through mid cycle, get a blood work, and see if your e2 is in range, then stop using nolva, if it is in range. You just have to monitor elevated estrogen sides, then you can increase aromasin dose if needed.

    I would do Nolva 10mg/day. For Aromasin 12.5-15mg/day is a good starting point, make sure to stat it from day 1.

    No but nolvadex does not reduce circulating estrogen. Using an ai lowers circulating estrogen in the body. Nolvadex competes for the receptor in the mammary glands helping fight off Gyno if your circulating estrogen is to high.

    It can reduce the effectiveness of adex somewhat.

    .25 mg dex EOD, later backed it down to .2mg EOD due to sore joints and BW confirmation. It did a number on my lipids, so after doing some reading I want to switch to something not nearly as bad on my lipids, therefore aromasin .
