Wait. You had gyno. Got surgery. Cycling again without educating yourself to the ramifications of what you take. Jeez man!
Nolva is a serm and will take a little time to kick in.
Now, if I read this correctly you're taking 100mg a week of test and 100mg a week of deca, right? The test you're taking is barely replacing your natural production at that level. If it's more it's not by much unless you are low in T naturally. You are basically on a TRT dose. Many at that level need an AI and some don't. Deca is a progestin and can cause prolactin issues and thus nip issues as well. We are all different in how we respond to these chemicals.
You can bump your Nolva up slightly for a few days if needed but it will kick in and help you. Raloxifene is statistically better than Nolva. If there is actual damage at the end of this consider Andractim Gel as well. It's a topical DHT gel that you apply directly to the area in question. Search up "All you need to know about gyno" for a good read on it. Several people I know, including a pro have used this effectively.
When is comes to an AI Gaspaco is correct, you probably need one but the caveat is not that much (if I read your cycle correctly) as .25 eod is the norm for a 500mg cycle of test. That would crush your E eventually. And to have a prolactin issue from the deca there would have to be the presence of high E. So, if you start an AI without blood work I'd go with .25 to .5mg the day after you inject. Cabergoline helps with prolactin but as stated, controlling your E is the key here.
Then again, without blood work we are guessing as sensitivity and a little puffiness is not always gyno. Could just be some sensitivity along with water retention.
