Can Letrozole Replace Nolvadex for PCT?
May 31, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Question: Can letrozole be used to replace Nolvadex (tamoxifen) during post cycle therapy (PCT)? If so, since it appears to be a bit stronger, how much should be run during PCT? Answer: The purpose of letrozole is to control estrogen levels, with the typical goal being the low end of normal. Tamoxifen (Nolvadex) and clomiphene [...]

April 21, 2010 By Leave a Comment
Q: I have read that Clomid and Novadex are very similar products. Is this true? If so why would you need to take both?

October 11, 1999 By Leave a Comment

There is no way to entirely avoid the problem, but there are ways to minimize the problem and recover natural testosterone levels reasonably quickly after a cycle. In this article, we will look at the problem of [...]
Anti-Estrogens and Steroids
August 9, 1999 By Leave a Comment

Anti-estrogens also can reduce bloating associated with anabolic/androgenic steroid use, and may avoid health risks [...]

December 1, 1998 By Leave a Comment
There has been considerable interest from readers in the brief alternating cycle concept that I have previously discussed.

World Anabolic Review Revisited
November 1, 1998 By Leave a Comment
This month’s article is put together a little differently from usual: rather than holding to any one topic, I will focus on some errors published in World Anabolic Review 1996 (WAR) and offer corrected information in those areas. WAR is probably the best book available to the bodybuilder on the use of anabolic steroids, but [...]

June 1, 1998 By Leave a Comment
What does “anti-estrogen” mean? How are anti-estrogens like Cytadren, Clomid, and Nolvadex different from each other? Is Proviron an anabolic steroid, or not? Anti-estrogens are drugs which act to reduce estrogenic activity in the body. This can be done either by reducing the amount of estrogen, or by reducing the activity of whatever estrogen is [...]
