NolvadeXT is an oral medication that contains 20 mg of Tamoxifen Citrate.
NolvadeXT is not a steroid; instead, it acts as a selective estrogen blocker. While it does not stop estrogen from accumulating in the body, it prevents it from interacting with certain receptors, particularly those found in the nipples. This is particularly beneficial for bodybuilders, as it helps address "gyno," which can arise from using aromatizing steroids like testosterone.
Another significant advantage of NolvadeXT for bodybuilders is its ability to enhance testosterone production by stimulating LH levels. This characteristic makes it an excellent option for post-cycle therapy (PCT).
Despite its clear advantages regarding estrogen accumulation, it's essential to recognize that NolvadeXT may have negative effects on steroids related to progesterone. Therefore, bodybuilders are advised against using NolvadeXT alongside steroids like Deca or Trenbolone.
It’s also worth mentioning that NolvadeXT does not lower estrogen levels throughout the entire body. Athletes aiming to reduce overall water retention and bloating should consider true estrogen blockers such as Anastrozole or Exemestane. Bodybuilders commonly take NolvadeXT in doses ranging from 25-75 mg daily during cycles where gynecomastia is a concern. Those incorporating NolvadeXT into their PCT will usually continue with similar dosages for 4-6 weeks after ceasing all steroid use. Users may also opt to include Proviron and/or HCG in their PCT regimen.
