Arimistane - Growth plates

Hi guys

I know that tamoxifen (nolvadex xt) causes irreversible death of growth plate cells, in fact tamoxifen has been given to end the growth of very tall girls.
Does arimistane (old erase/nolvadren xt/el1minate) do the same? I ask this because I'm 18 and my growth plates are open :D
 
It may be sounds silly, but I want to use it to delay the growth plates fusion. I also lift anyway.

I've read a lot about arimistane, and i think 75 mcg/day it's free of side effects, but I don't know if it may kill growth plate cell like tamoxifen (probably not, because it's a suicide ai and not a serm)

Huh? Why would that be a goal of yours?
 
So you want to delay it so you stay shorter for longer? I dont think you should be trying to manipulate hormones at your age. Regardless, I dont know arimistanes effects on growth plates
 
Ah. Now I understand...

I don't really know the effects either. My two cents, it just doesn't seem like a safe practice without consulting your physician.
 
I know I'm only 18, but he is free of side effects, it is completely safe, why do you tell me to don't take it?

I would just be assured that it don't close growth plates.
 
Going with a "no" here

- probably will not do a damn thing you want it to
- its still hormone effecting and you're young.
- i feel like the driving force here may be poor self-image. That gets dangerous.
 
I had this discussion with coop because my kid started to grow a lump under his nipple.
Without a sciency answer, dont do this it WILL close your plates.

Can you link me the discussion please? What did you do to fix the problem?
 
I'm interested in Coop's insight as well. Use of AIs is growing as an alternative or supplemental treatment for idiopathic short stature patients. Granted, these are well tested and understood pharmaceuticals used under professional supervision. However, the OPs question seems reasonable. I understand the reticence of even discussing this as it could be construed as condoning but I personally find skeletal growth as fascinating if not more so than muscular growth.

it is not free of side effects nor completely safe even if it would work for the intended purpose. if you take an AI to lower estrogen, you will lower estrogenic effects all over your body (including brain). this is a vital hormone for a lot of things. you usually only want to lower it if you already have a problem there (i.e. too much estrogen production because you are obese or sth like that).
