Manufacturer: Novartis
Pharmaceutical name: Letrozole
Pack: 30 pills (2.5 mg)
Femara is a highly effective anti-estrogen that contains 2.5 mg of Letrozole.
Originally developed for the treatment of breast cancer in women, Letrozole can also benefit bodybuilders who are particularly sensitive to estrogen-related side effects or those undergoing intensive bulking cycles while using significant amounts of aromatizing hormones like testosterone. This product is exceptionally effective at blocking estrogen in the body, with studies indicating that a relatively small dose of Letrozole can reduce estrogen levels by up to 98%. In some cases, subjects have shown no detectable estrogen in their bodies after receiving Letrozole.
While excessive estrogen can be detrimental and lead to unwanted side effects, it is crucial for bodybuilders to avoid completely eliminating estrogen, as it plays a vital role in optimal muscle growth and maintaining a healthy sex drive.
Femara may also be beneficial for individuals who have already experienced estrogen-related side effects, such as gynecomastia (gyno). There is evidence suggesting that Femara can reverse the effects of this condition in some cases. However, results are not guaranteed, so if you have started noticing symptoms of gyno, it may be worth trying Letrozole to see if it provides relief.
This product may also prove helpful for bodybuilders preparing for competitions who aim to achieve maximum dryness. Users of Femara typically take 2.5-5.0 mg daily. Exceeding this dosage can lead to a significant decrease in estrogen, which may negatively impact sexual drive.
