They actually started getting puffy 4-5 weeks into a var only cycle, so although it is a rare occurance, I'm certain var was the cause. I ran one compound at a time for a reason, and not because of lack of knowledge/research or fear of needles, but so that I would know exactly how each one affected me. It turned out to be a learning experience because if I'd thrown in say some test-e and eq or something I definitely wouldn't have blamed var for the puffy nips.
So the puffiness isn't something that just happened. It's been a problem ever since the var cycle back in feb-march.
I remember Mr. X used to swear by Letro/Nolva for gyno treatment. Is he still around?
