Has anyone heard of this stuff?, and if so what were the results? I have heard that is good at helping to loose weight and cut up. Let me know what you fellas think. :confused:
 
Whoever told you that should be beat with a stick. Bromo is used to treat progesterone-related prolactin gyno. It has some sides that aren't great. If you can get away with using B6 to keep prog gyno away, do it. Bromo is stronger, but the sides are not pleasurable

And there in lies it's acclaimed mode of action,einstein.By lowering prolactin levels it supposedly upgrades hpta function.It also supposedly suppressess NPY and CRH therefore being somewhat anticatabolic and decreasing food intake as well as increasing insulin sensitivity,this was all postualted in Lyle Mcdonald's e-book Bromocriptine.So does it work.......................No sadly to say i tried it for several months without any results if you are going to go after a dopamine agonist this one is probably inferior to pergolide anyway.

cabergoline is yet another dopamine agonist that'll deal with hyperprolactinemia. I haven't tried it, but I hear it's very effective. As for sides, I don't know.
Bromo makes me naseaus and gives me headaches, which both help reduce food intake too ;) . I wasn't aware of it's effect on CRH...that's interesting. By NPY, I assume you're referring to neuropeptide Y? If so, that's out of my element, but I'll read up on it. Are you a Pharm student?

Einstine, you need to get a clue, Anabolics 2004 as it listed as a fat loss agent. I am attaching a very good artical on Brom by very well respected vet. Check it out and it is very interesting....James

Einstein i am currently studying bio-chem and read every book i can find on the subjects of hormones and the body.How bout you?
 
I happen to be beyond the stage where I believe everything I hear or read. For all that have used bromo, I don't think anyone would want to use it as a fat loss reagent. The sides, for me anyway, are even worse than DNP. It works well for treating progesterone-related gyno. I don't care what LLewelyn writes in his books....he's the same guy that selectively cites research papers only conducive to proving his point, even if the conclusions in those papers make up the minority opinion, by far, on the subject. It may work as a fat loss agent, but it's not for me. regardless, it's primary use in the BB world has been for treating and preventing prog-related prolactin gyno.

Cool, to each his own. You have a PM...
 
I'm an MD/PhD student. My PhD is in immunology, but I too try to read up on any relevant endocrinology. It's a lot more fun to learn when everything I learn, I try to think of it's relevance to AAS.

Do ever chat it up with Swale...
 
Einstein, is it true that bromo and cabergoline can reduce the refractory period time after orgasms in men? I have heard that it does this, but I'd rather hear it from someone who has used it and has an unbiased opinion, not from a company selling it.

I didn't notice it myself, but I only used bromo, although cabergoline is very similar. Cabergoline is actually marketed for its sexual benefits as dostinex. I don't know at what dosage one is supposed to see the effects or afte rwhat length of use. If it did work well to reduce the refractory period, therein lies its most important fat loss capability :eek:

I agree with einstein there are to many ''so-called''authourities that cite papers that are few and far between in proving their point.Yes bromo does decrease the refracatory period.But again I have used it and noticed nothing even though i did not experience sides as bad as einstein is saying.The recommended dosage for the so called effects are 2.5-5mgs very importanly in the morning as to decrease the sides due to natural dopamine pulses at night.

Swale, is a HRT Doctor who runs the HRT forum here at Meso...
I know who you mean now. No, I haven't talked to him. I think there should be more informed docs just like him though. I've seen some of his posts ove rin this forum, and he represents a small minority......a small number of doctors that are truly informed about AAS and that see the benefits and risks for what they really are rather than what they're perceived to be via the media.
 
i figured i would get in on this also....i had the bad sides to. but found that i didnt have them as bad if i took it at night. i dont recall any efect on my appetite, but was also on eq. and i did not notice anything in the sex department. all i can say is i hate bromo. what are all the other options other than bromo, i know b6 was mentioned what else? i get fina gyno symptoms just from looking at the stuff.
