Hope this is the right thread to post this not sure if it sould be in personal care but hear goes

Ive still got acne from my last cycle, after pct last time about 4 weeks after my back, neck and shoulders blew up bad.

So anyway im on another cycle now about 3 weeks in but ive been reading on another fourm if you add nolvadex during the cycle about 20 mg/day for 3 weeks doen to 10mg/day forr the rest will calm it down, so my question is does this work?

As i really want to get rid of this fcuking acne! i know its a side and you will get some but mine is really bad at the moment so any input woulsd be great

As far as I know Nolvadex will do nothing for acne. Get some panoxyl 10 cream from off the internet, this done the trick for me. Failing that you might need accutane but I think that is a last resort as it can have some bad sides, hope this helps

Acutally AIGW your wrong, Estrogen causes acne and NOT test it self.

So controling estrogen will help acne.

Saying that nolvadex is a poor AI choice. i just posted in another thread as to why.

Acne prone guys i get to run letro when i on 1g test per week, and most report low to NO acne.

Aromasin is the better choice in controling estrogen. Letro for gyno and high levels of T

at what doses?

Rambo55

Depends on what doses your steroids are and what A.I you chosse to use, plus it is also individual some need more some need less

ok im on 500mg test e and 200mg norma deca with dianabol for 6 weeks as a kick start i think i would choose aromasin out of the two. i have some nolvadex left from my last pct do you not think thats good enough for the job then?

yeah i consider myself as acne prone, as a result, i didnt touch test for 2 years after bad acne. But i ran a 6wk test prop 100mg ED, with adex 0.5mg EOD not so long back, and had no acne... im now cruising for 6wks on 125mg sust EW, so i dropped the adex... and now i have acne again (well a couple of spots, nothing major) so i think it definatly helps to run an A.I, IME anyways.

How much dbol are you using mate?? 30mg or over i find it bad for acne myself, yet im fine and have little to none on 20mg...

also mate, nolva is generally not recommended for use with 19nor compounds like deca, as it 'can' cause prog. related gyno, which is a b1tch to get rid of by all accounts. Not saying it will, as others probly use it with out any problems, TBH though its not something i would not risk myself, prevention is better than cure and all that!!

Rambo55

Start with 12.5mg/a day aromaisn, Myself i need 25mg/ a day to control estrogen sides.

Nolvadex lowers IGF-1 and GH level so its bad in many ways, plus its only a SERM not a A.I

Ge the job done correctly mate.

Rambo55

Dbol is one of the worst drugs for raising estrogen hence the bad acne from it

Virgo83

In my experience mate it does absolutely nothing for acne. Not to sure on the scientific side but in the real world I dont think it helps at all. Not sayin youre wrong but from personal experience I wouldnt tell someone to take nolva for acne

Rambo55

I didnt, I said nolva was POOR on all counts

Letro,aromasin or adex will help control acne

jms_peake

50mg

Virgo83

Saying that when I started using the panoxyl i got for acne I also started on 2.5mg ed letro cos of suspected gyno. So you think that would have helped the acne also? cos it did clear up

Rambo55

When i first started using steroids i had BAD acne. from everything it really sucked.

But i also NEVER used a AI < through lack of knowledge> I went clean for 2 years in that "off" period i used 20mg/ed accutane for 10 weeks, My skin went PERFECT.

Im now running tren and Test < high doses> with Var and have NO acne. nothing. !

I am running letro ( as i find it more cost effective) plus im one of the lucky ones. idont get sore joints and low sex drive i function just fine,

Just run aromasin < exemestane> after to stop rebound.

as i said ESTROGEN causes acne and NOT testosterone per se
