nolva stealing gains?

[Yellowbomber]

I'm taking nolva right through does it steal any test made gains?

95% will disagree, but it doesn't affect my gains and I take 10mg at least per day for the whole cycle. will be doing a huge cycle in July and will just have the nolvadex on had per advice from the board and hopefully I can report on both with and without at that time.

i'm not sure, but I remember reading before someone said it could affect between 2-3 pounds, not sure though.

will begin using it, I feel sometimes a bit of pain on my right nipple not sure if all is imagination but better is better

Stew Meat recently posted an excellent post about nolva hindering gains. Like any antiestrogens, he said it will lower IGF-1, hence GH levels will drop. U would have gained more without nolva. Arimidex is the choice antiestrogen.

Methandriol dipropionate might help here since it does increases estrogen without aggravating gyno symptoms. MD also upregulate A/R, magnifying the gains u might make from the anabolics u r taking.

If it does it is minimal. Arimidex is a better anti-estrogen anyway. Not to take an anti-estrogen because you are worried it will hinder gains is plain stupid. What is the alternative, to have a good physique with large tits. Before arimidex came around all top bodybuilders took noveldex and they all still looked quite big and ripped.

You know, depending onwhat you are doing and how much you may be able to get away with 5mgs. I have in the past when I was low on novs and I am very prone to gyno. I would take 10mg if you have enough though. 10mg will be plenty unless you are really hammering shit.

Arimidex will do the same thing. The reduction in GH/IGF levels is due to estrogen inhibition or reduction, so it doesn't matter the anti-estrogen.

"Methandriol dipropionate might help here since it does increases estrogen without aggravating gyno symptoms. MD also upregulate A/R, magnifying the gains u might make from the anabolics u r taking."

Methandriol, while on Arimidex, may be beneficial, since it is estrogenic, yet less so than estradiol. And since you have inhibited aromatase, it can't convert to methylestradiol.

Testosterone increases AR levels, this is not specific to MD.

it might hurt your gains some........but its not enough to worry about.

It will reduce your water gain, but if you want to call that "gains", then go ahead. I loved taking nolva. I did a cycle omnadren and it completely blocked the water bloat that is normally associated with "old" omna.
