Nolva

**1wheelr1** · 01-31-2013, 08:20 PM

Well I'm actually on my cycle now and in the first week gyno set in. I'd been taking arimidex .5mg eod witch obviously didn't combat the gyno so I started nolva and the symptoms completely subsided within a few days. I was going to discontinue the nolva at the end of this week and see how I do without it. My real question is, that this time and every time in the past upon starting nolva, I develop ED. Is this common? Also is it a good idea to try and discontinue the nolva at the end of the week or should I continue throughout my cycle?

I would increase your AI. The Nolva is competing at the breast area, but is doing nothing for your free Estrogen levels.

And what exactly is your cycle? Gyno can't develope in one week. Sensitivity maybe....tell us more.

Ok, thank you. I'll try bumping up my AI to .75.

Can you answer my question about the erectile dysfunction while on nolva? Is this common?

Kelkel, I'm running 75mg tren eod and 500 test ew. Gyno seems to always come up on me fast.

My most important question here is.... Does nolva cause ED? Every time I run it I seem to have problems.

How many times have you had to incorporate nolva into a cycle?
I ran nolva on cycle for years before ai's became available and never had this issue.

I've done three cycles and had to use it ever time.
I've read in the past the it is possible to encounter ED when running nolva. I just don't know how much truth there is to it.

It's possible that maybe the reason for needing the nolva (estrogen) is the real culprit? Upon noticing I need nolva my E levels are very high, witch brings on ED.
Just a thought....

Perhaps instead of going to 0.75 EOD, keep it at 0.5 but go ED. Should result in more stable and consistent levels of the AI in your system. Dose frequency is just as important as dose volume.

This had actually crossed my mind. I'll try it and see if it keeps me on more of an even kiel. Thx bud.
