What is Nolvadex?

A potent oral medication for PCT, Nolvadex has the main component of Tamoxifen Citrate, which is an anti-neoplastic agent instrumental in blocking estrogen in the human body and preventing the growth of cancer cells in the breast tissues. 

Nolvadex operates as a SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator) and is prescribed to bodybuilders during their PCT with the aim of restoring hormonal equilibrium in their bodies.

Uses

Here are the benefits of using Nolvadex for bodybuilding:

• Restoring hormonal balance in the body
• Reducing estrogenic side effects
• Preventing aromatisation 
• Retaining muscle mass even after the steroid cycle
• Helping bodybuilders fight against the side effects of steroids, like low libido, insomnia, nausea, acne, etc.

Nolvadex has the following medical uses as well:

• For infertility treatment in women
• For preventing metastatic estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer
• For increasing HDL and decreasing LDL

Dosage

Nolvadex for PCT dosage will be determined by the doctor after assessing a few factors, like:

• Your age
• Your sex
• Your BMI
• Your allergies (if any)
• Your past and present medical history
• The steroid type and its cycle duration 
• The intensity of changes experienced by your body
• A Nolvadex cycle usually spans about 4-6 weeks
• Women are generally given a lower Nolvadex dosage

How to Take Nolvadex

Consume the tablets orally, swallowed whole and not chewed or crushed. Use water to take the tablets.

If you have forgotten a dose, take the medication right away upon remembering. But make sure that the timing is not too close to the next one, for two tablets are not to be taken at a time.

Dietary Instructions

A Nolvadex cycle demands a healthy and balanced diet with lots of fluid and essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients. This will help your body recover from the side effects of the steroid cycle faster. Steer clear of unhealthy food items such as saturated fats, sugary foods, alcoholic beverages, etc. 

Consult a dietician if needed.

There can be a few Nolvadex side effects in the initial days of the cycle.

In both men and women:

• Hot flushes
• Nausea
• Muscle cramps
• Hair thinning
• Headache
• Libido fluctuation
• Blurry vision
• Fatigue
• Diarrhea
• Mood swings

In women:

Do not worry about the generic side effects, as your body is bound to show some withdrawal symptoms. But report to the doctor in the case of any emergency.

Drug Interactions

Take the preventive measure of letting your doctor know about your past and present medications when ordering Nolvadex online so as to eliminate the possibility of further drug interactions.
