Long story short, I have run a couple Test E cycles with great success in the past. I recently took a pro hormone that someone recommended. It worked great til I started to get sensitive nipples and a bit of puffiness. I stopped taking it and started on Tamox at 40mg. I still have a small lump under my right nip which has been there for about 2 weeks. Will the Tamox fully relive this or is there something else I should take as well. I have had no cases of gyro from the previous cycles.
Thanks
that's why people do not like PH they are so toxic and the sides are greater than AAS if you keep taking the nolva it will take a while to shrink the lumps if at all there's no guarantee . throw in some Raloxifene 60-80 a day and keep the nolva for best chances
Thanks, i appreciate it. I saw another topic that guy started about PH and the advice was the same, to stay away from them. Unfortunately I learned the hard way. The Raloxifine from Ar-r good as well? Thats where I bought the nolva too. Thanks again
yea arr has it
So if someone is doing pct, they can substitute nolva for raloxifene?
he is running gyno treatment and a common protocol is nolva and ralox
If caught in time ralox is used more as a reversal! Protocol for ralox is 120mgs the first wk - then 60mgs from there on out!Quote:

So based on what I said above in pct you could substitute ralox for nolva provided you are running clomid alongside. Ralox is not a common pct choice because it does not stimulate the production of test as well as clomid or nolva.Quote:

Drop the nolva altogether. run the ralox like you have outlined 120/60/60/60 etc....Quote:

I'm just curious as I've known you can use ralox for pct in this case - but I know I would want to recover to the best of my abilities... Thx
Just because ralox isnt as good as the other serms at stimulating test production think about this- When pct ends for most people you would still be taking ralox for your gyno and stimulating test production. You will recover for sure. Dont think ralox wont do anything for T production because it doesnt do it as well as clomid or nolva, it does it to a significant degree. Like if you start on ralox for gyno your t levels will increase significantly. To the point where you will possibly have high sex drive etc. Symptoms of elevated test.Quote:

I used torem/nov for a pct and really liked it. I thought it was one of the smoother pcts I had experienced. I think most people expect nov, ralox etc to work very rapidly or feel they are ineffective. Just because the lump may have formed somewhat rapidly I have found it often takes a solid 6 weeks of any serm to really start to work it's mojo.Quote:

I'm not speaking for jimmy but once the lump disappears I would continue to run it for two weeks after. That has always been my experience with gyno flare ups.Quote:

If you keep your E2 in check and in sweetspot than you should be ok - however it can flare up again - and some members I've noticed that they'd run nolva/or ralox on cycle either to prevent flare ups(usually nolva) but it can still happen - now you know what to do if it happens...Quote:

I would run it at 20 mgs right through pct.Quote:
