    cant seem to control E2 with ldex, can I use nolva?

    Just wondering about guys opinions on running low dose nolva throughout cycle as opposed to arimidex.

    My situation:

    I am slightly prone to getting small gyno lumps

    I use ldex on cycle yet find it very difficult to regulate E2 levels even with adjusting doses, cant get sex drive in check at all.

    I have developed a small gyno lump on cycle twice while using ldex and immediately apon noticing started nolva reversing protocol of 40mg a day for 5 days followed by 20mg a day remainder of cycle.

    This reduced and removed my gyno completely.

    Being on nolva I was a lot more stable and felt my E was in check, sex drive where it should be and everything went well, unlike when on arimidex.


    My question is... Is there anything wrong with running a low dose nolva (10mg) throughout cycle as my estrogen control, as it has been effective in assisting me previously I figure it is the way to go But should I be taking this route before any gyno symtoms arrive?

    Cheers

    Shouldnt be an issue so long as youre not runing Tren. Have you considered Letro?

    It may reduce gains a little but if it works for you then I say go for it. People use to use it all the time on cycle without much problem.

    Previously ran .25mg ED and uped it to .5mg ed as I was lacking sex drive, nothing changed and I developed a lump. dropped ldex started nolva problem solved. was running test and tren.

    Running prop 100mg ED and NPP 100mg ED, caber and hcg as well.
    2 weeks in and no sex drive at all.

    I never get sore or itchy nipples, just end up with a lump.

    As for the tren, ive read conflicting views on this, i ran nolva on my last cycle with tren once I got a lump and had no issues at all. does anyone have detailed input on why you shouldnt?

    As for the slight reduction in gains, im fine with that as im reasonably close to where I want to be and will get there soon enough even if it takes a little longer

    Not sure man. Sounds like you are prone to gyno or maybe over-analyzing your gyno. (since you feel no itchy or pain) It's controversial if you just feel a lump with no other sides of irritation.

    Maybe try to up your dex. If you're running Test that high, you should have no issues with sex drive!

    on .5 ED now and doing bloodwork tomorrow so will update in a few days. Im not too keen on going over .5mg ED so think 10mg is the best bet as I know it works for me. Just here to see if anyone is against the idea and if so, why...

    Cheers

    Note: definitely do develop gyno to the size of a pea or slightly larger with no idication that its coming and nolva clears it up in a few weeks

    Is your dex legit? I would look into that.

    You also might want to try liquid Stane instead. A lot of people report better E2 control and sex drive boost with the stane.

    You should never say something is good to go 100%...even legit labs have the odd bad batch, although rare and usually they'd catch it before it goes out. Although they would fix the problem later if it was indeed bunk.

    Unless your making it yourself there is always a slight chance. Obviously reduced when using someone with good rep. Hell I wouldn't even trust my pharmacy for 100% legit....people make mistakes sometimes.

    i agree. Just like anything some people respond better to other meds
    If people can't tell your on steroids then your doing them wrong

    Some people just have more sensitive nips than others. My E runs low at 15 - 16 on my TRT protocol and I do not need an AI. If I go above it for a mini blast (and I mean mini anymore) I have to run both low dose AI plus nolva which keeps things in check for me. Both prescribed, doc understands.
