Novedex Xt Sides


Will taking very small doses of Novedex lower libido?

Can taking NXT as a stand alone cause gyno at all?

Also, if it is run as a standalone, taking minimal doses for four weeks, will coming off it cold turkey be bad?

Example: taking it for 4 weeks, then 2 weeks off. Using that cycle, will there be negative sides when i come off it?

My understanding is that you should taper off of it at the end or you risk an estrogen rebound. I've heard it happen with that stuff. If it's a really low dose you say you're taking, then tapering is probably not needed

Don't take me as someone who knows a great deal about this stuff. I'm pretty sure that it has been mentioned here and there. Someone who really knows this stuff well will eventually pipe up on this thread. You should look up other popular AI's such as 6-oxo or atd to get opinions because they do the same thing the same way.

Novedex XT, which contains ATD, definately needs to be tapered down. If you don't, you will get an estrogen rebound effect that could possibly give you gyno. Also, I wouldn't go above 50 mg of ATD (~2 caps of Novedex) daily. If you take more you could eliminate most estrogen in your body which is ****ing terrible (scientifically speaking).

When I took ATD, libido loss was slight at 50mg ED. If I was single, I probably wouldn't have given a sh*t. I ended up taking bulk maca extract at 9 g ED (upon the gf's request) and that seemed to take care of the problem.
If you decide to run a cycle of Novedex XT, here is what I'd recommend. For a one bottle, 4 week cycle:
Week 1-3 => 2 caps daily
Week 4 => 1 cap daily

Yes estrogen Rebound it very much possible. I had a few friends crank their dose up to 4 pills! All Estrogen had left but as soon as they got off there test was shot and gyno existed bad! They also experienced bad Ed...one of my friends tried soo hard but failed bad and lost his booty call due to Ed

At a body weight of 150lbs I would suggest a max. starting dose of 1 cap per day. I am 174lbs and noticed a loss of libido at two caps\day. In fact if you are worried about loss of libido one cap every other day would be a better idea.

i have a friend who told me that this supp only increased his sex drive. It is so confusing because one forum will say that it took away their libido then on another forum someone is telling me that their libido was soaring while on it. What do i believe?

People react differently to these things. Take it at the recommended dosage, taper down for the last week and if you experience sides or loss of libido then you can just stop taking it. Or snag a libido booster to run at the same time.

I decided to stop taking it. With all of the mixed results i have been seeing i think it would just be best to not take it right now. I have only taken it for two nights so far at one pill a night. SInce i just decided to stop taking it is this bad? Will there be any negative affect to my test?

No, you'll be fine if you only took it for 2 days. Do you want to sell the rest of the bottle?

if someone open's the bottle and sees the seal broken, they have every right to return it back to the store.

the store f*cked up in accepting the returned bottle IMHO

i would add post cycle support and lean extreme to your pct. lean extreme for your cortisol control (some people start that at the beginning of their pct or at week3).
