proviron as an AI?

[ironclaw]

I started a cycle of 750mg sustonon and 500mg deca 2 weeks ago. I"m prone to gyno to start with so I also added 25 mg of proviron because I read it's an AI. My question is this: I've always had a small lump under my right nipple, and after my second week on this cycle, it seems to be getting a little, and I do mean little bigger. It's not sore at all and my left nip is fine. So , should I up the proviron to 50 mg/day, or leave it where it's at 25 mg/day, or should I add 20 mg/day of nolvadex along with the 25mg/day of proviron? Don't have much experience with AIs to prevent gyno.......any advice is much appreciated, thanks.

proviron is not an AI, contrary to the assertions often made otherwise. It does modulate the ER through DHT like binding. however it is not a replacement for an aromatase inhibitor

thanks for the information, so ,, what would you suggest for stopping gyno in its early stages? I've got nolvadex on hand, but how many mgs?

if you are using deca DO NOT USE nolvadex. get aromasin, AIFM or letrozole.

nolva upregulates the PgR

thanks for the advice, I'll drop the nolvadex, just curios, but why shouldn't you use nolva when taking deca? I've got some AIFM ordered and it should be here sometime next week.

because its upregulates the PgR (since a progestin is at least partly responsible, perhaps greatly responsible, upregulating the PgR is BAD)
