Tribestan and Boobies

[J'Bo]

Well i knew that if i put Boobies in the tittle i may get more response. Here is the story. I started taking Tribestan about 4 monthes ago (3 weeks on, 2 weeks off, 3 weeks on and 5 weeks off). This is my second cycle and about 4 weeks ago my BOOBIES have been so damn sore that it is almost impossible to touch them or run or hug anyone. The pain is different at different times of the month. After my first time taking Trib i did not have this at all, second time it came only after 3 weeks, third time it hurt after 7 days and so i stopped to see if it would make a difference (which it did not really) now after 4 days of being on it i am DYING...i look like i have hard round fakeys which would be great if they did not hurt so damn much.

Anyone have any insight as to what going on?

ok 9 views and still no one has any idea? damn people.

most likely because the Tribulus is increasing your estrogen levels.

 

[J'Bo]

why would it increase my estrogen levels if it is supposed to only increase my test? plus i emotionally feel like a man= no emotions other than SEX as appose to normal jenny=feelings of sappy love stories

 

[JerrymeMorales]

hmmmmmmmmmmm?

Wish I could help you on this Jbo.....

Ive never taken Trib so I dont know what to say but I have to tell you...the same pain you have felt in your breast is kind of the same when I was taken andro a long time ago....and because of that, I have a mild case of gyno.....

I dont think a woman can get gyno....

 

[Arnold]

Because Tribulus does not work the same way in females that it does a male. Males have testes, and they get stimulated by LH (this is what Tribulus is "supposed" to increase), females do not have testes they get their small amount of testosterone from their adrenal glands and ovaries, this can also get stimulated by the Tribulus, but most likely you're gonna get an increase in estrogen.

The only thing you will gain from Tribulus aside from higher estrogen levels is a higher libido, and it will probably increase ovulation/fertility. If you're thinking that it's going to give you an anabolic effect, it won't.

My advice is to stop taking it, not only are you wasting your money, you're increasing a hormone that will cause the opposite of what you desire.

EXACTLY!

And the reason you got gyno from andro is because the majority of it converted to estrogen.

 

[J'Bo]

OMG i want gyno just kidding

Thanks Prince...i get it now. Last thing i need is to be more fertile although i dont think it would matter if your not gettin any

Well, to make this whole thing more accurate I need to add that trib is supposed to increase LH secretion in both men AND women. For men, LH binds to receptors in the testes called Leydig cells, which stimulates testosterone release. However, there ARE cells in the ovaries that also respond to LH, called Theca cells. This also causes a rise in test levels, but in women there are other cells nearby called granulosa cells, which will then convert much of the new test into estrogen.

 

[J'Bo]

thanks babe

As an example, clomid works differently in men versus women.

Nothing I said was inaccurate gopro, but you did add some clarification that apparently J'Bo needed.

LH in females stimulates the follicle to secrete estrogen; LH in males stimulates the interstitial cells of the testes to produce testosterone.

Prince I was not calling anything you said innacurate, but I didn't want anyone to think that LH DOES NOT stimulate testosterone in females b/c it does, albeit by a different pathway than in men.

"However, there ARE cells in the ovaries that also respond to LH, called Theca cells. This also causes a rise in test levels..." (from previous post)

Hmmm, I don't see the problem.

The problem is she likes to have her boobies felt! But if they hurt, it takes away from her pleasure...and mine! Well, in my dreams anyway

[BUSTINOUT]

aight...get a room you two.

 

[J'Bo]

should we get two double beds?

 

[BabsieGirl]

J'Bo

Why do you want to increase your test levels? Just curious.

 

[J'Bo]

to lift heavier and gain muscle and be a horny devil who has no emotions other than wanting to just all day

 

[BabsieGirl]

Will that stuff work for me? Not the horny part. That comes natural. But will it help me lean out or better utilize b/f?

 

[J'Bo]

no no no...i just got off of it cause its causing bad side effects...babsie supplements arent the answer...proper diet and rest is...

Just one babe! Me and you!

Sorry BOut!

 

[BabsieGirl]

I don't know if you know about the science end of nutrition. But, I'm curious. I know sleep is important and to get 8 hours if you're lucky is good. What I'm wondering is, what chemical release are bb and figure competitors looking for to release during sleep?

 

[J'Bo]

no chemical release. i was talking about the all the training you are doing might be causing you to be holding onto all your bf.

 

[oaktownboy]

is the question what do bb take to go to sleep or what chemicals are released when we go to sleep?

 

[J'Bo]

GP...one bed is for us and the other is for BO

 

[BabsieGirl]

I was told to take ZMA for sleep. But the questions was, what chemicals are released that bb are looking for while they sleep? I'm trying to figure out why sleep is so important while working out. I can only assume a chemical is released or releases during sleep to help recovery, etc.........

Any ideas?
