I didnt say that half the gains would be lost. I said they'd be less.
For OP:
Those stickies are outdated IMO...
Nolva can be run during cycle, but it will result in lesser gains. Not nearly half, but some will be sacrificed. It just makes more sense to use Adex or Aromasin.
And you didnt waste money, just use it for PCT. Or save it if you have extra. Wait, tell me you were gonna do a PCT.
