Description
Nolvadex is a popular drug in the sports world. It is a non-steroidal agent produced by F40 BIOTECH which contains the active substance Tamoxifen Citrate. It is an anti-estrogen that belongs to the group of drugs called SERMs (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators). Tamoxifen is used in medicine to treat breast cancer by blocking estrogen receptors on breast cancer cells. In sports, the drug is effectively used for post-cycle therapy (PCT) after a steroid cycle.
Tamoxifen’s effects in bodybuilding:
After a cycle of anabolic steroids, no matter how mild the cycle is, it is always necessary to carry out PCT. The task of PCT is to restore the production of natural testosterone as quickly as possible and maintain the muscle mass gained on the cycle. Tamoxifen will help you to restore your own testosterone production in the shortest possible time as well as keep those hard-earned gains.
Taking Tamoxifen in bodybuilding allows you to remove the negative side effects of steroid aromatization. Tamoxifen is indispensable for PCT, as it allows you to restore the hypothalamus-pituitary-testicular axis and the production of endogenous testosterone quickly.
There is another option for the use of Tamoxifen in sports and bodybuilding which is direct during the cycle of steroids. Tamoxifen is used if you are using certain steroids, such as testosterone, to suppress the aromatization of these steroids and the side effects inherent in excessive aromatization, the most undesirable example of which is gynecomastia.
Tamoxifen can be used when signs of gynecomastia appear, as Tamoxifen is very active in the mammary glands. When the symptoms of gyno disappear, however, another aromatase inhibitor or blocker should be used.
