Headaches from using toremifene citrate

[machinehead]

Hello,

Today I started my PCT, my pct looks like:

week 1: 120mg toremifene citrate + 600mg milk thistle @ED
week 2: 90mg toremifene citrate + 600mg milk thistle @ED
week 3-4: 60mg toremifene citrate +600mg milk thistle @ED

I donno why I got headaches from this stuff, I saw that people praise this product as the best SERM in the market, also the most safe SERM.

Is that normal?

I've never used it.

BTW Milk thistle is useless for PCT.

Hmm, haven't heard of toremifene that I know of.

"Toremifene citrate is an oral selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) which helps oppose the actions of estrogen in the body. Licensed in the United States under the brand name Fareston, toremifene citrate is FDA approved for use in advanced (metastatic) breast cancer. It is also being evaluated for prevention of prostate cancer under the brand name Acapodene."

It's new chem.

the old vet: toremifene contains this compound:dimethylethylamine
I think the dimethyl is hepatotoxic, isnt that?

It might be. I did a search and didn't come up with anything. If it is then I can see the point of taking Milk Thistle.

BTW Although the majority of the material I have read regarding Milk Thistle is inconclusive when promoting liver recovery/health I still take it.

On another note why are you taking toremifene? There are better substances out there, substances that people have more familiarity with. If it is giving you headaches I would drop it and use something else.

Hi,

The reason why I'm using toremifene, because toremifene isn't lower the hdl, while tamoxifen does.
While I was on, test have negative effect on the lipids, I don't want to make it worse.

Take a look on this article

I'll try it today to see if I'll get headaches again.

btw: this chem is more expensive than tamoxifen.
