Hi there
I'm 33 and have been taking prescribed Novaldex for a couple of months now after a Low T diagnose back in March. I initially started on Clomid ( 25ED). My current protocol on Novaldex is 20mg/daily + Aromasin 12.2mg twice a week. I have experience some improvements in some areas but I think that the medication is masking the benefits of improved levels.
Pros:
- Muscles seem fuller
- A little less anxious
Cons:
- Bloated belly. ( this has been a problem since first week of treatment )
I have not gain any weight since starting treatment but stomach is bloated. My diet is clean, drink only water and take probiotics.
