Facial bloat after PCT

[spark26]

Firstly I would like to just say hi to everyone.

Just finished a PCT after a long course (21 weeks, I got a bit carried away)

Took Nolva and Proviron but only had enough for 3 weeks at 40/20/20/ and 50/25/25

4 weeks after cycle and I still have this bloated face and just for the record I was on a cutter.

Before you say my diet must have been crap Ive went from 18% down to 11.5% bodyfat

Is this a result of high estrogen/cortisol levels?

I could get my hands on some Adex, do you think that would solve the problem?

Hate to sound so vain but not digging the pie face look lol

Nolvadex is an estrogen. Mystery solved.

Nolvadex is an estrogen?

It's an anti estrogen

Am I missing something here?

run bloods and post your estradiol levels.. you can buy bloodwork online and go in tomorow morning to get the test.. and get results in 3 days.

Yeah I phoned up a private clinic and the prices were through the roof!

Not to mention the guy was asking me where I got my gear from and assuring me he wasn't gonna call the police lol

I just said call the police all you want it isn't illegal to take them. (I'm in the UK)

Nope, it's an estrogen that occupies estrogen sites at the breast to prevent estrogen from forming there.

awwww poor guy have to pay for your own bloodwork?

I live in the US and i have no health insurance.. i pay for everything out of pocket. i guess since its not free you better just forget the bloodwork and just not know where you stand? or option B is get the damn bloodwork and help us, help you. i'm not gonna guess as to what your problem is so you can come back in a month and blame me when things go from bad to worse. also why are you telling the clinic you used AAS, its not their business. just get the bloodwork done and post it on here.

does that make sense?

Hahaha...I feel ya there bro. God bless the usa. Freedom isn't free....literally!!

Yeah, sucks not having insurance. You either pay out the ass, or just don't go. I'm sitting here 2 weeks later and I still don't know if I have ruptured ligaments in my foot or if it's broken, but I can't afford to go to a doctor or hospital and be told it's ligaments and then to do what I've been doing (compression wrap and ice and trying to stay off it). What pisses me off is I can't work legs, do dead lifts, or do any cardio here.

But, you definitely need blood work, us telling you that you have high estrogen is just a guess from symptoms. Are you drinking lots of milk or anything? Is your diet really clean? You may have estrogen rebound... or maybe you were really dry from your cycle and PCT and are starting to hold water again.

Yeah well I don't expect to pay for blood work as the cost of living here is so damn high. If you get a understanding doctor on the NHS it's free but that's the risk you take! Quoted £150 that's $240 to you. Don't know about you but much I would rather spend that on some adex and aromasin.
