The one, The only....THE ONE!

An reps, my PCT consists of 2nd Gear/IGF-2/Drive .. this couldn't cause a gyno flare up could it? Just because I believe on Dirk's interview he stated that an overkill of PCT could actually cause negative sides, i.e. gyno..

no, by overkill what he was talking about is like using nolvadex + clomid, ATD, 2 different test boosters, etc.
 
Does it make a diff if its your first cycle?
This sux ass for you kiwi, Reckon your def doing the right thing by not trying to power through. Knock it straight on the head. This came out of no where man. GAY.:rant:

Ya man this sucks sorry bro...it sounded like it was going great an then bam out of nowhere sh!# gets fked up.. Let us know how the PCT goes>>>:rant:
 
Are you guys ruling out, that The One can cause Gyno

I am about 99.9% sure that it does not cause gyno- I am 99.999% sure that it has something to do with stopping the ATD (this will cause a surge in rebound estro- has happened to a bunch of people), and using bulk nettle (can also cause gyno and allow for surging estro levels) before beginning the cycle

the pharmacology does not lend itself to a conversion to estrogen, or any type of progestin-like activity
 
I have never had a problem getting rid of my gyno flare ups while on cycle with ATD or Torem. i actully get more gyno flare ups after pct than any other time from estro rebound. After you get gyno under control are you goin to start cycle back up or are you just done with this one?
the gyno flare-ups are from stopping the ATD- he is having the same issue you were having.....estro rebound- it is not b/c of The One- it does not aromatize
 
if i were in your situation i would just use the nolva and continue cycle i say nolva so your only blockin estro at receptor site and not lowering the actual level because as you know estrogen is important for gaining muscle and i would suggest a dose of 40mg nolva until pain is gone and size has gone done then tapper dose down this is just MHO

there you go- best advice I have heard in this thread- nolva for 10 days will make it dissappear
 
My nips are feeling a bit tender...sh1t...Let us know what happens bud
 
So it was something else you were taking Craig? Huh? This ATD or something. Jesus, why does this sh1t have to be so complex? Cant people just take the reccomended dose on bottle, nothing else. Then use 2nd gear and a natty, nothing else. What is this ATD and bulk nettle now??

Man, I gottta go study biology or something, this is getting to complex for my dumb ass. Its frustrating as hell.
PS Sorry if I sound frustrated...but jesus it just gets more and more complex, run this for X amount of days, then some of that, then some of this, If such and such happens add this too.....ARGHHH, I was just gonna do what the bottle says and trust it wouldnt hurt me. Now it appears i gotta have all these other things on hand "just in case"

Mostly I am just annoyed(at myself) that you more and more need some kind of UNI degree to understand WTF people are talking bout.

So what is a person suppose to do about the ATD...? Just stay on forever... I'm taking hyperdrol right now, and your making not want to stop taking it....

And I was under the impression that even though a compound does not aromatize, the elevated test levels can cause a higher than warranted estro incease...?

This is a valid point. The ATD and bulk nettle certainly didn't help, I had a bad feeling about the ATD from the start. Ozzy, I ran ATD before this cycle. I ran a low dose of it (25mgs) but obviously that will enough when I then went onto THe One to mess me up slightly. I may actually keep this cycle going as rms has kindly emailed me suggesting various things. Looks like nolva + The One might actually help here. It's the pct after this i dont know about now..suggestions?

The ATD and nettle root were what Craig were using in the 4 weeks prior to starting The ONE, Zac. And it's not that complex once you start to understand it.

If you need any more help e-mailing either Dirk or me would work. We will make sure you're ok :)
 
ATD is just an AI in many OTC pct products IMHO AIs should be tapperd down for a longer period of time so for your 5th and 6th week of pct use the lowest dose of what ever your taking every other day instead of just finishing at week 4
 
Gotta agree with Ozzy sometimes stuff is hard to understand.. So the question is what is ATD? Don't wanna sound dumb but No question should be a dumb one right? When you are trying your hardest to learn how to be the most physically strong healthy person out there. Lifting an being a gym rat has become a PASSION to me and I want to learn it inside and out..... :18: My wife likes that too. LOL.....
 
I'm sure you already know the answer to this ;)

Naw sorry bro i dont but im thinkin that maybe your getting some kind of rebound from a past hormone. But honestly WTF do i know , lol. My interest is peaked about the ONE but im sure noone wants gyno so thats why i ask.

Since it is an isolated incident there must be some extraneous or underlying problem here. Maybe we can get some valuable info from your unfortunate situation. I can try to dig up a log but i thought you just finished somthing a month or so ago, i forget.

I ran mmv2, activate xtreme and ATD. That might be the problem, and as dirk said, We are thinking the ATD is the main culprit.

I have run mv2 before with hdrol with no problems.
 
well he said he was taking atd before starting the cycle which is most likely the cause of this gyno flare up but there is always a chance that the One in some way can cause gyno i mean it is a new product and real world results can outweigh science in some cases as of right now though id say its rebound unless some more people start reporting flare ups on the one then it will be clear that it was just his pre cycle hormone levels

That seems very likely since approx 3 users with existing gyno report it going away thus far. Either way it will be good to know for future users, good work craig and good luck chasing those lumps away.

Gyno [Update] #1
Nipple is still painful, and puffy, but I didn't expect one day to fix this. I'm told wait a week or two for this to go. So patience is the key..which is hard..As mentioned Dirk and Rosie have been helping me address this, and I'm going to keep dosing The One, and run my SERM along side this.

I will run another 60mgs of Nolva tonight, then 40mg's until the pain goes, then 20mg's until the end of cycle. Dirk, let me know what you think?

You answered my question.. Good luck bro keep kickin arzzz..:burnout:
 
Yeah, Dirk mentioned that running the One with the nolva will actually help my situation. Lets hope he's right :)

Im glad to see this underwraps brotha, let us know man, i read what rosie said, and i can see where this is coming from, hope everyone is right, coming from those two (Rosie/Dirk) Im sure they are!:) now get swole brotha!
 
Yeah, Dirk mentioned that running the One with the nolva will actually help my situation. Lets hope he's right :)

In theory The One should act like an AI, I hope he's right too :) My own experience supports this though, The One has rid me of 90% of my gyno in 2 weeks time. I have been dosing raloxifene along side TO but started that 2 weeks before TO. I was using Toremifene before that. Both ralox/tore dosed at 60mgs which should be equivalent to 40 mgs of nolva.

I've used a lot of ATD over the years and there's always a rebound. Makes me wonder if you should always serm after a strong AI cycle to block estro receptors during the rebound fase till things balance out again.

If you cant get it under control this way, start shopping for letro, that almost always completely kills gyno, wil make you feel like crap but thats better then ending up with permanent gyno. Taper up from 0.5 to 2.5mg a day, keep it at 2.5 till gyno is gone, continu for one more week, then taper down in 5-6 days. Probably you will wanna serm again after that for the obvious rebound..

Good luck man!!

That sh!t is strong stuff. I took 0.25 mg just once for the hell of it to see what happens and it made me feel pretty weird for about 1.5 days.

good to see these guys could help you out good luck with your cycle bro
 
Hey guys, thanks for all the tips and suggestions. Seems like the ATD + Nettle triggered this off. I'm going to stay on cycle and just run Nolva along side it until the trouble passes.

to be honest I have read SO many times about ATD causing rebound gyno..enough times that I avoided it. My friend ended up giving me a free bottle, so as mentioned, I ran it with bulk nettle at a low dose every night. Obviously combined with other products this just created the perfect environment for an estro rebound, then adding The One just added my body the ability to add more estro to the re-bound, compounding the effect. This is my theory.
 
So what is a person suppose to do about the ATD...? Just stay on forever... I'm taking hyperdrol right now, and your making not want to stop taking it....

And I was under the impression that even though a compound does not aromatize, the elevated test levels can cause a higher than warranted estro incease...?

Just run nolva or clo after- this is the only time I would recommend a SERM for PCT (or in this case, PCT for a PCT, LOL)

and for the second question- if something doesn't aromatize to estrogen, there will be no increase in estrogen levels- it is only when aromatization occurs that these issues would be present.....

just run the nolva until it goes away- it will only be a couple more days until it dissappears.......save the rest for some other time....
 
Wow! Nice! Im glad the pain is subsiding! :clap2:

Would you say that 100mg 6-bromo at night for a couple weeks is enough to warrant the use of a SERM when I stop?

The funny thing is I started running the 6-bromo at night when my nips got puffy during my 1-ad cycle. I don't have any lumps or anything just a little puffiness which is still kind of there.
 
Wow! Nice! Im glad the pain is subsiding! :clap2:

Yeah certainly is good news man! Especially since last night it was really puffy and painful.. enough to make me want to perform a home surgery! haha. Still painful, and the lumps are there, but now I can see progress I can somewhat relax.

Chicken Breast PreBed with no fats? I liked seeing the beef stew, one of my favourite meals :) I often skim the fat off, which sacrifices flavour unfortunately.

Also you're at 40g Fat + EFA + Massgainer, if I did that right. probably an extra few g's from the oats, but still a bit low, unless you missed one somewhere.

Oh, what you are reading there is todays meal lisyt which I havn't updated yet, I cut it from yesterdays meals. But yes, I had chicken breast with no fat. I agree, might want to up my fats eh?
 
glad to hear the gyno is getting better! when I had this issue with my SD run in december I ran 20mg of nolva ED and it was gone in 3 or 4 days...felt tons better within a day or two though!
 
Gyno [Update] #2
Well I have done 2 nights of 60mgs nolvadex now. Looks like the stuff is legit as the pain has gone by maybe 50%. The one lump feels smaller as well so I'm hoping after another 60mg dose I'll be on track to very little pain, then I will dose 40mgs then 20mgs for a few days after to be sure.

Glad this nolvadex seems to be working.
