Effects

While not a steroid, Nolvadex does have many benefits for bodybuilders. Use of estrogen blockers such as this can be instrumental in staving off gynecomastia during the use of aromatizable steroids like Testosterone.

Nolvadex is a selective estrogen blocker, used to prevent the buildup of estrogen in the body that causes gynecomastia during aromatizing steroid use.

Nolvadex is not a steroid, but rather a selective estrogen blocker which prevents certain receptors from being affected by too much buildup of estrogen in the body due to aramitizing steroids.

Nolvadex is a pharmaceutical drug that specifically targets estrogen blocking. Estrogen affects the male breast, so Nolvadex can help to block this from happening. In other words, it won’t prevent gynecomastia from occurring in the first place, but it will reduce its effects when they happen later on. This is a must have for any bodybuilder looking for relief from signs of performance-enhancing drugs such as testosterone.

Side Effects

Nolvadex is a form of treatment for breast cancer in women. Contrary to popular belief, it will not block estrogen production through the body entirely. This drug works by reducing hormones that stimulate breast cancers, while increasing levels of other hormones to keep appropriate hormone balances. Side effects can include pain or tenderness in breasts, sweating, nausea or vomiting and upset stomach due to the medication’s tendency to severely lower natural estrogen levels.

Nolvadex is a trade name for the veterinary product, tamoxifen citrate. The drug selectively binds and blocks certain agonist (stimulating) estrogen receptors and thus inhibits any effects of estrogens on those tissues in which the receptors are present: like breast tissue or uterus. Nolvadex has been used medically to treat breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body after endocrine therapy; it can also be taken as hormone replacement therapy for menopause-related symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness and osteoporosis prevention. Athletes have been known to use this drug with similar intent following anabolic steroid use with deliberate intention being to reduce gynecomastia related.

Nolvadex is a breast cancer treatment medication marketed to both men and women. It is used alongside other steroid cycles in order to prevent the growth of male breast tissue during anabolic use, while also preventing gynecomastia overall. In addition, Nolvadex has been found effective in post-cycle recovery from steroids by preventing muscle mass from diminishing after discontinuing use.
