serms are harsh on the body and have many neg sides. that y avoiding them whenever possible is best choice imo
AHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
I would always have a SERM on hand just in case.
Okay, I should probably set one thing straight. THERE IS NO ON HAND. Talk to people who have had failed OTC PCT, and they will tell you that its impossible to know if your PCT has failed until AFTER your PCT. SOme people notice it 2-4 weeks POST PCT. Now, if you are going to have something on hand to 'treat gyno' that is different, and in that case an AI is better for suppressing gyno. However, the negative feedback loop is not as efficient as modulating receptors, and AI's as a whole (
especially chemical AIs) require a lot of tapering and a lot of experience. What I am getting at is that OTC is an AI, and then having sides and trying to combat it with another AI is going to be DIFFICULT. Not only that, but the gyno issues will become a problem AFTER the AI ceases and the sudden spike in estrogen levels arises. Just use a SERM FFS.
The entire point is, if you have a SERM on hand, just use it. the negative feedback is more effective, the product as a whole is far more failsafe, and over a 4 week period it simply will work. Not to mention its cheaper. If you are willing to buy research chemicals, JUST USE THEM. You are foolish not to.
Another thing I should correct is the idea that OTC PCT's fail. They dont. The user has simply underdosed them by taking the company's recommendation for AI use. They've tapered down too quickly for how their body has reacted, or they didn't take it long enough to cause indirect upregulation of the HPTA. An AI, taken *perfectly* will *always* work. However, it is very difficult for someone who does not know EXACTLY what they are doing. Like I said, use a serm. Its nearly failsafe. And no, its not hard on your body. If you were worried about hard on your body, you probably shouldn't have consumed oral steroids. Just a thought. SERMs are not even in the same toxicity ballpark.
