any way to prevent this ?? any treatment??

side effect of steroid. thats why pct is essential. one of the product to increase testosterone level after a cycle, to avoid gyno, is nolvadex. some use clomid as well.

it can happen naturally too. it can be barely noticeable or very severe. it may be only on one side.

to prevent the natural one, you must keep body fat low especially during puberty phase. eat vegetables like broccoli and cabbage a lot and dont fap 3 times a day lol. genetics also plays a big role. some ppl have natural high estrogen to testostrone ratio.
if u feel pain when pressing ur nipple or it is itching and puffy, go see a doc but dont be surprised if he tells u to wait after puberty to see if it goes away or not. doctors are more concerned about ur long term health and gyno doest cause any health risk.

for steroid induced gyno, you must test the waters before jumping on high dose of drugs that can convert to estrogen like dianabol. u should also take tamoxifen or some sort of anti estrogen with the steroid. im not familiar with juice situation in malaysia so i dont know what is available here. drugs like deca or tren can casue gyno even when taking anti estrogen.

sometimes gyno can be reversed or at least stopped if it is not old or too severe using anti estrogen medication like letrozole. u probabely need to take it for at least 3-6 months. but it must be prescribed by ur doc. the only sure fire way to get rid of your gyno is surgery.

It is possible to get rid of that when you have a pair of the boob?! Cause I think I have it, due to I'm obese previously.. Now have been cutting down to 73.3kg but still...

I'm having Pseudogynecomastia...

Manboobs is not gyno. Lumpy tits are.

That's breast cancer dude

thats gyno.

u will know for sure when u get lean enough. if ur nipples are larger than average and look puffy, you probably have it. for now just focus on burning the fat.

lose fats overall... eventually ur boobs will get smaller.. and do chest workouts...

will the anti estrogen got any side effect ?

Gyno, short for gynocomastia is what forms as a lump beneath the nipple. it's not necessasrily sides of steroid but it is highly possible.

let me explain this in the reverse manner.

gyno is caused by the binding of free moving estrogen in the male body with the receptors beneth the nipple forming disc like lump. do remember male bodies have estrogen too. in a certain proportion to testosterone. and the body keeps the balance of the proportion by having an enzime called aromatase which converts the excessive test to estrogen to keep the balance. this conversion is called aromatization.
this sometimes happens during puberty too because of the test spike in the body. doctors seem to believe there no prevention to this unless when the lump is too big and starts givin pain, gotta go under the knife(eg. Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson) .

but if u can sense the gyno symptoms early enough, u actually can prevent it from it getting any bigger. symptoms are, intchy or sentisitivity in the nipple area.
u can start on arimidex an AI(aromatase inhibitor). what it does is, it inhibits the aromatase enzime in body which makes the aromatase to be unable to convert anymore test into estrogen. the symptom will subside in less than a day. u can run the course for a couple of day. and then u'll be just fine.


when i said this may occur during puberty, not for every individual. some unlucky ppl as myself have higher amount of aromatase in our body. the amount of aromatase in the body in different from individual to individual. u're born with it and have pretty much have no control over it. so u gotta live with it.

that why everytime i get on a test base cycle i always have arimidex or letrozole or nolvadex in hand just in case. and i have to pretty much use it everytime too. it dies two things:
1) it prevents gyno and keeps the estrogen level in check
2) it actually increases the efectiveness of test because none is converted into estrogen and the level of test will not drop.

i hope these info helps.


p.s. theres also another sides caused by estrogen . it's called Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). arimidex can also help is this case.
