    Are you all sure about Nolvadex?

    I started my cycle and everything was going great. Then I started to notice some signs of gyno so I started to take Nolva plus the Letrozole that I was already taking. Ever since then my gains have flatened out. Is the letrozole + nolva too much? I have started to lower the doses of both to .25cc/day letrozole and .5cc(10mg) nolva per day. Im hoping this will help. Ill keep you all up too date and give me some feedback if you got it. Thanks

    I started taking Nolva 20mg - I don't think the gains flattened at all - just lost some water, which resulted in better definition. So, I doubt it's the nolva that falttens your gains.
    I don't have personal experience with letro, so can't comment on that

    Which ONE should I take, just the letrozole or just the nolva? Maybe if I drop one out it will help, but still protect from gyno.

    personally, I'd drop the lterozole. But ask some of the mods or Vets.

    The Nolvadex should be more than enough!

    20mg ED of nolva is plenty for the cycle you're running.

    He said he lowered his dosage. Would 10 MG/day be enough Nolva for 375MG Test/week?

    DJ You should be taking at least 40mg or more until the sides disappear. If you were not having gyno problems, then 20mg a day of Nolva only would keep them at bay.

    Guys, how many times does someone have to suffer this stuff before you all realize that Nolva should be taken as a preventative, not a treatment only. It does not hamper gains, just sheds the water bloat related to estrogen!!!

    The way his post is written it seems that his gyno has gone away and he's now worried about his gains. Since he had a problem with gyno once I would run the nolva at 20mg ED. Everyone is different some guys get gyno from thinking about test where others can run a gram or more a week and never have a problem.

    OK, I see what you mean MudMan. In a round about way, I was asking how much Nolva I should take if I were doing 350MG/week. I have no Test experience, and I am an ectomorph. Is 10mg/day a waste as preventative measures?

    No it's not a waste. I tried that (Nolva 10mg ED) in the begining of my cycle running Cyp at 400mg a wk and noticed some bloat then I upped it to 20mg and it went away and I continued at 20mg until the end of PCT.

    I don't think 10mg 's a waste.

    However, it is a compilation of many research resources and personal experiences - that 20mg is more effective in preventing SE and water retention without affecting your gains. (I just read one article, where they say You'd need 80 to 100mg of nolva/day before it starts interfering with your gains.)

    IMO
