Clomid will block estrogen while its also trying to restart the testosterone production. Incidentially while there is estrogen in your body, there is NO restarting of testosterone production unless you can hide it from your hpta, which clomid does a great job of. I am thinking one bit of advice from the old school is very smart advice even for today. While I dont believe in full pyramiding of doses, I do believe if you work it out so instead of going cold turkey into PCT, that if you do 2 each 100 mg per week injections for 2 weeks after your full cycle doses end, this can allow you to evacuate estrogen from your body before dropping your testosterone to zero. PCT is supposed to be when we are most vulnerable to gyno development so this might be smart. I also have done exactly this before going into PCT and I have had supurb recoveries each time.
