Default Nolvadex V Arimidex

Guy's why would one use Arimidex over Nolva, its a lot more expensive that i know, and from my brief research im guessing the growth factor is going to be better with Arimidex, not that its a muscle building steroid because i know its not. It basically acts the same as nolva but in a different way.

Thank you

My understanding is that they dont act in the same way but do have similar effects - Nolva is a SERM and basically acts as a synthetic form of estrogen which binds with the receptor preventing natural estrogen from doing so. Adex actually prevents estrogen production in the first place.

basically, it would more depend on your needs than anything as to which you would use..

Adex supress estrogen by upto 96% so you have much less estrogen, Nolvadex prevents estrogen binding to receptors as opposed to supressing the estrogen in your system this is how they differ.

Any AI is going to be much better during a course if you suffer from estrogen than Nolvadex.

nolva basically clogs up the estrogen receptor sites.. so less gets "used" by your body.. a crude way of doing things i suppose

arimidex in laymens terms means theres ALOT less estrogen floating about your body in the first place

less is better to a degree it is very unhealthy to get rid of all estrogen or keep it low for to long as the body uses it for many every day functions.

paul is correct as always. if you are trying to add mass and aren't particularly susceptible to gyno however, i'd use neither. there is a strong theory that states estrogen plays an important role in muscle building and lowering levels can inhibit gains to some degree.

If you take Arimidex do you get a rebound when you stop taking it of a higher level of oestrogen? or does it slowly rise to normal??
