Hey Thrila as Barbells said you should only be taking the Nova if you are having some sort of signs of gyno and really feel you need to! Also as mentioned estrogen gyno and progesterone gyno are different and only winny can combat the latter!

It has been reported that Nova can slightly reduce gains during your cycle! Proviron is slightly better because it is technically an androgen so where as Nova can block the binding of estrogen Proviron can minimize its creation! I know the deca can sometimes cause water retention but not always so it would have been better to wait and see!

It does depend on the indivdual your age and b/f percentage whether you will get gyno!

You are only in week 3 of 10 weeks some people tend to use it at the end if you think gyno is likley to be a problem when your exogenous steroid levels drop and you can use it until you feel your natural test is back to norm!

Also you could use it in conjunction with HCG injections for extra kick starting of the testes but you are on quite low doses best to wait till you have done a relativley high test cycle aso would probably not be necesary at the moment for future ref use HCG for 2 weeks and then continue the nova/clomid on its own for a further few weeks! however for you at present clomid alone would be sufficient!

In answer to your question about the deca this takes 4 weeks to to really get into the system so be paitent!!
