What are the symptoms when you think your getting them. And what are the protocols To stop them.
what are you on?
Aromasin 12.5mg EOD to 25mg ED depending on how well/quickly it works.
Suicidal inhibitor to knock down the estro and continue cycle? Not hijackin', just trying to learn.....
How long have you been using gear for and been a rep but don't even know what gyno symptoms are??
Lactation will only occur in the presence of very huigh levels of prolactin. Estrogen will not cause lactation, which is the cause of most gyno. In fact, you can't ge gyno without estrogen, as estrogen is critical for breats development. Women only lactate during pregnancy, when prolactin levels are very high. You don't see non-pregnant women walking around with milk squirting out of their tits, so why would a man lactate just because he has gyno? He won't. The point here is that lactation is NOT a symptom of gyno---it is a symptom of excess prolactin. If you are not using prolactin elevating drugs, you will never have to worry about this...and even most people who do use prolactin elevating drugs don't experience this side effect. It is relatively rare.
Initial symptoms of gyno include itchiness and slight swelling. Often, itchiness is the first sign...immediately followed by swelling. If you find yourself scratching your nipples during your cycle, there is a very good chance that estrogen is getting out of control and breast development has been initiated. Now, of you catch things at this stage, there will not be any permanent growth. However, if you let hard lumps start to form, you may be able to shrink it a bit, but in most cases it will never go away completely, especially if the growth is significant.
Ideally, you should use an AI when you begin your cycle, so that estrogen levels never get out of control to begin with, but if there is already a problem, you want to use Nolvadex, as Nolva will stop the problem immediately be knocking estrogen off the estrogen receptor sites in the nipple. AI's prevent the further formation of estrogen, but they don't do anything to stop estrogen which has already been formed, so nolva is your best course of action in times of emergency.
Also, many people tend to get paranoid about gyno and start over-reacting, even when nothing is wrong. The thing is, when you get gyno, you can see it. That's what gyno is--the formation of breast tissue...and breasts are visible! If you can't see or feel anything, then your fine. When you can see visible swelling and/or they are itching in a way you would never normally experience, then you need to start doing something about it. However, you should never even get to this point, as you should not be using aromatizable drugs without a properly dosed AI.
