Nolvadex (Tamoxifen) ------> Can be found in any pharmacy or drug store

Nolvadex is the most well known and widely used Anti Estrogen.
Nolvadex works by binding to the estrogen receptors in the body, preventing estrogen from binding to these sites. Hence, why Nolvadex is referred to also as an 'estrogen blocker' or by it's more medical term: SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator).


In women Nolvadex is used as a breast cancer medication, blocking estrogen is vital to stop cancer spread.

In men Nolvadex usage is particularly interesting as it is known to be used by many athletes, bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts mainly to prevent gynecomastia (formation of female like breast tissue in men) due to steroids use. Some men may develop gynecomastia even without drug use, actually gynecomastia is extremely widespread among men and particularly adolescents. In many cases gynecomastia symptoms in adolescents may go away on their own though sometimes they may form breast tissues.
10 to 20 mg per day is usually enough.

Steroids and testosterone are known to aromatise to estrogen, by blocking the estrogen receptors in breast tissue, Nolvadex prevent that harmful estrogen to cause gynecomastia (bitch tits) in men.

Nolvadex is also used to promote the secretion of LH (Luteinizing hormone). LH is a very important hormone for both women and men. In men, LH is responsible for the production of testosterone (the male hormone) by the Leydig cells of the testes in males. Athletes and bodybuilders who use anabolic steroids, testosterone and other performance enhancing drugs, frequently use Nolvadex in order to block estrogen that result as a side effect from using drugs.

Since Nolvadex also acts as LH stimulator, much like Clomid does. It
encourages natural testosterone production in men. Many men prefer Nolvadex over Clomid
for that purpose, in fear that Clomid causes many side effects while Nolvadex may cause less or none. Some prefer the combined use of Nolvadex and Clomid during PCT (Post Cycle Therapy).
