Nolvadex

Nolvadex is a drug that was discovered by AstraZeneca. It’s actually a trade name for a the drug called Tamoxifen. Nolvadex has been used since the 80′s to help fight breast cancer in women but many body builders have begun using it to help them build muscle. These athletes claim that Nolvadex can be used to suppress estrogen and thereby help the body boost testosterone production and trigger more anabolic reactions. More testosterone can help bodybuilders pack on more muscle and amplify output but can Nolvadex really provide these kind of results?

Is Nolvadex Effective?

Nolvadex works by binding to receptor sites before estrogen can. For women, this can help block reactions that accelerate cancer cell growth. For men, this makes it so estrogen has less effect on the body. This allows testosterone to have “free reign” within the body. With more testosterone binding to receptor sites than estrogen, it becomes easier for men to build muscle and spark more anabolic responses throughout the body.

Its ability to inhibit the effects of estrogen also makes Nolvadex very attractive to steroid users. By blocking the binding of estrogen, Nolvadex can prevent some of the side effects that commonly occur during steroid use. These include acne, oil skin, water retention, and even gyno.

Conclusion

Nolvadex will be effective at reducing estrogen activity. It also helps the body put existing testosterone to better use. In some studies, Nolvadex has even helped men raise levels of luteinizing hormones (LH). LH is secreted by the pituitary where it is then used by the body to stimulate the production of extra testosterone inside the testicles. Some studies have shown that it can boost testosterone by 150%. But while it may be effective, Nolvadex is not as powerful as other anti-estrogen drugs out there. We recommend researching other options before trying Nolvadex for yourself.
