Anti-estrogens and women

Tripp · 05-27-2001, 10:05 PM

I was wondering if any of you women use Arimidex or Nolvadex in your cutting cycles. How much, how often, and what were your results? Did it affect your mens. cycle? Thanks. Tripp OUT......... [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_cool.gif[/img]

I've used Nolva at 10mg per day starting 6 weeks out from competition. Thankfully I lost my period ('cause it was on a collision course with one of my competitions). I also miss around 2 cycles post competition.

What would be the benefits for a woman?

Effects were less thigh and butt fat than before Nolva use, and cessation of period. But of course this was all in conjunction with a strict diet and lots of cardio. I'm still not convinced ordinary women with 'normal' bodyfat will notice much of a difference to fatloss. Really the female fat-loss would be the only benefit, maybe a bit less fluid retention. And of course it can prevent breast cancer in some susceptible women.

There also seems to be a lot of variation in how different women respond to fat-loss with Nolva. This may be related to the distribution of estrogen receptor subtypes in fatty tissue, but that's pure speculation.

My girlfriend has used nolvadex at 10mg/day for the past 8 weeks. I may be just imagining things but it seems that her fat distrubtion has changed. She now holds most of her fat in the abdominal area. It used to be primarily in her thighs and glutes before. Like retropump her periods are very irregular and at times stop altogether for a month or so. But she's using primo/anavar so that may be the cause of her fat change and periods irregularities...

I would definitely think the shift to abdominal fat is more related to the AS, though this happens to many postmenopausal women who aren't on HRT, so who knows. The one thing I'm sure of is that it stops your breasts growing when you're otherwise 'bulking' [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif[/img]
