Tamoxifen 20
Tamoxifen Citrate (brand name Nolvadex) is another Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) that is often used as an anti-estrogen and post cuycle theraphy drug by anabolic steroid users.
The Selective aspect of the name of this class of drug is just that: they act on certain parts of the body only and as we will see, Nolvadex is very selective in its targeting of the breast tissue, making it valuable both medically and for steroids users concerned about certain side effects.
Dosage Instructions
10 – 20mg / Day
Nolvadex Dosage During Anabolic Steroid Use
The primary, and for most of us the only reason to use Nolvadex during a steroid cycle is to protect against male breast tissue enlargement – a.k.a gynecomastia. Any anabolic-androgenic steroids you are taking which have aromatizing properties will need gyno to be addressed and Nolvadex provides a cheap, simple and safe way to do that.
It only takes a low dosage of 10mg to 20mg per day of Nolvadex to protect against gyno as it works to bind to receptors in the breast tissue so that estrogen can’t exert its effects here. If you find that the aromatizing effect of the steroids, you’re taking are too powerful for Nolvadex to be effective at this dosage then aromatase inhibitor drugs will likely be required instead.
Female Nolvadex Dosage
When females use Nolvadex for performance enhancement it is often used for just that: to enhance performance as a result of increased testosterone levels. This can make Nolvadex a viable alternative for women not wanting the more powerful effects of steroids that bring high risk of masculinization side effects.
Aside from performance enhancement, women can make use of Nolvadex to improve the physique with this drug bringing about a leaner and tighter physique without the associated risks of steroids. For all these effects, females require a very low dosage of Nolvadex with just 10mg per day being sufficient.
Nolvadex Dosage for PCT and Increased Endogenous Testosterone Secretion
During PCT we use Nolvadex at higher dosages to stimulate the release of natural testosterone following severe suppression of normal function after during and after steroid use.
A cycle of 4 to 8 weeks is always advised for post cycle therapy, and often other compounds will be utilized alongside Nolvadex including an aromatase inhibitor and often Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG).
When it comes to Nolvadex dosage for post cycle therapy, whether you are undertaking either a 4- or 8-week cycle or something in between, the recommended dose for most men is 40mg per day for the first half of your PCT cycle, dropping this down to 20mg per day for the second half of PCT.
The timing of your post cycle therapy starting depends on the active life of your steroids: short ester steroids will need you to start PCT within just days of ending your steroid cycle, while long-acting steroids require you to wait up to two or three weeks before starting post cycle therapy with Nolvadex and other compounds.
