Congress is asked to review actions of anti-doping agencies linked with athletes


Lawmakers of California state that anti-doping agencies violate fundamental constitutional rights of athletes suspected of steroid use. So, sportspersons that have never tested positive for any banned drugs are investigated. That’s why the legislators presented a request to Congress to review this issue.
It is known that the USADA is sponsored mainly by taxpayers. The Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) gives 10 million dollars every year. This governmental office induces fighting against administration of banned medicines. Its goal is to uproot illegal manufacture and drug use, crimes related to administration of illegal substances, etc.
The request of California lawmakers was initiated soon after Lance Armstrong decided not to appeal his lifetime suspension from professional sports.
Everybody knows that Lance Armstrong has lost his 7 titles acquired at Tour de France. He was also suspended from competitions wholly.
Summer Lance Armstrong filed a lawsuit against the USADA, claiming that his constitutional rights were violated. But the judge Sam Sparks didn’t desire to accept the lawsuit. He claimed that the USADA acted correctly. Sam Sparks also noticed that the USADA was formed in order to clean sports from those that take prohibited substances.
California Senator Michael Rubio confirmed that the judge didn’t act properly, refusing to accept the lawsuit against the USADA. So, the senators confirmed that the USADA violated rights of certain athletes. That’s why they initiated the request to Congress.

Barry Bonds shares feelings of Lance Armstrong


Barry Bonds knows what a sportsperson experiences, if he/she is prosecuted by the government and anti-doping officers. He understands what this person feels. That’s why the former professional baseball player can sympathize and support athletes accused of doping. Thus, Barry Bonds supports Lance Armstrong, the seven-time Tour de France winner.
During an interview a journalist asked Barry Bonds about problems of Lance Armstrong connected with doping suspicions. The former baseball player showed his admiration towards the seven-time Tour de France winner. He claimed that Lance Armstrong was the most excellent cyclist that has ever been in professional cycling.
Of course, Barry Bonds realizes what he says. He knows what it means to be a good cyclist. After this athlete retired from baseball, he became a cyclist. He participated in some competitions successfully. Being a cyclist, Barry Bonds sees that this sport has the same troubles like baseball. He sees that cyclists are targeted by federal prosecutors and anti-doping officers like professional baseball players.
Both Lance Armstrong and Barry Bonds were accused of doping. They were pursued by feds and anti-doping officials.
Federal prosecutors accused Barry Bonds of lying about usage of forbidden medications and obstruction of justice. They couldn’t prove that the sportsperson lied about intake of banned products. But they found him guilty of obstructing justice. The former baseball player decided to appeal the decision of the court.
As for Lance Armstrong, the government dropped the case against him. But the USADA continued to prosecute the cyclist. The USADA affirmed that Lance Armstrong had been applying prohibited substances throughout his cycling career. The cyclist decided to discontinue fighting against accusations of the anti-doping agency. He forfeited his Tour de France titles and money he had won at these events.
However Lance Armstrong forfeited his titles, Americans continue to respect him. They claim that he is the most excellent cyclist of all times. Lance Armstrong’s sponsors haven’t refused to support his cancer charity. The former cyclist helps people to fight against cancer. Thus, numerous individuals are thankful. They will always remember what Lance Armstrong has done for them.
Barry Bonds’ reputation has been destructed by suspicions connected with intake of banned preparations. The former baseball player thinks that his achievements during the baseball career are more essential than the accusations. He believes that people will forget about the accusations and he will be considered to be a baseball star.

Belarusian shot putter received one-year ban for her positive for steroid


Nadezya Ostapchuk, a Belarusian shot putter, received the gold medal at the 2012 London Olympics. But she failed a drug test. As a result, she lost the medal that was given to Valeria Adams of New Zealand.
Two tests manifested that a steroid’s metabolites presented in her urine samples.
If a sportsperson is caught using any forbidden products, he/she is usually sentenced to a ban of two years. As for Nadezya Ostapchuk, she received one-year ban. Why was the sentence lighter? There were certain circumstances that proved the following aspect: the shop putter didn’t apply any prohibited medication intentionally.
At the beginning the shot putter blamed his former coach. She confirmed that he had sabotaged her sample.
The Belarusian National Anti-Doping Agency examined this case. The International Association of Athletic Federation assisted the investigation. It was determined that Yefimov was guilty. This person put powder of methenolone into food of the Belarusian shot putter during the last week before the 2012 Olympic Games. The coach claimed that he had worried about Nadezya Ostapchuk. He believed that this steroid would help to win.
In fact, it is difficult to determine why Yefimov has done it. He only caused the trouble.
Anti-doping officials accepted these affirmations. That’s why the Belarusian shot putter received just one-year ban.
As for supporters of Valeria Adams, they didn’t believe that the Belarusian shot putter had not administered the steroid knowingly. They claimed that Yefimov just put efforts to protect Nadezya Ostapchuk. They confirmed that Nadezya Ostapchuk had taken steroids under recommendations of her coach.
If the Belarusian shot putter’s performance was great certain months before the 2012 Summer Olympics, her trainer had to be sure that she would win. Why did he trouble about?

Government discloses private behavior of some athletes


Some sportspersons that are accused of steroid use become targets of the government. Federal prosecutors do almost anything in order to determine whether some sportspersons have taken any doping products. They don’t spare taxpayers’ funds for this goal. Much money is wasted to reveal even private life of athletes. According to the government, several details of their private behavior can disclose the truth about administration of banned drugs. Thus, girlfriends of several sportspersons are interviewed by federal prosecutors.
For example, it has been disclosed that former girlfriends of Lance Armstrong and Roger Clemens and a former mistress of Barry Bonds have been asked about several aspects linked with private life of these athletes. Which questions were asked?
Kimberly Bell, a former mistress of Barry Bonds, was asked about testicles of this baseball player. She noted that the baseball player’s testicles were shrunken. So, her affirmations served as an argument that Barry Bonds took steroids and/or other forbidden drugs.
It is known that testicular atrophy belongs to unwanted effects of some steroids. Thus, the government decided to find out whether Barry Bonds had had this trouble. But it is an unreliable argument in order to prove that anyone has used certain forbidden products. Steroid users may avoid this unwanted result, if they use certain products for this purpose.
Mindy McCready, a former mistress of Roger Clemens, was asked whether this former baseball player had suffered from erectile dysfunctions. The singer affirmed that sometimes Roger Clemens had suffered from this problem.
When it comes to erectile dysfunctions, they may occur during application of steroids. But if you study information about negative consequences of steroids more attentively, you can understand that this problem is more likely to appear after discontinuation of intake. It happens because natural testosterone secretion is usually suppressed by usage of exogenous testosterone. But since there are such remedies which have capacity to restore natural secretion of testosterone, erectile dysfunctions can be avoided.
Sheryl Crow, a former girlfriend of Lance Armstrong, was also targeted by feds. But questions are not known. According to certain suggestions, she might have been asked also about sexuality of the cyclist.
Actually, federal prosecutors have a mistaken point of view in this case. Although shrunken testicles and erectile dysfunctions may occur because of steroids, these arguments are not reliable.

Don Hooton put efforts to educated youth about dangers linked with steroids


Several medicines are named “performance-enhancing drugs”. What do these preparations represent? Why have been they called “performance-enhancing”? Various individuals may have different definitions. Let see what an adolescent says! Before presenting her opinion it is important to mention that her brother, Taylor Hooton, experienced serious depression after intake of steroids. Finally, he committed suicide. He wanted to look like Melky Cabrera, Barry Bonds and other celebrated sportspersons that have taken steroids. But his life ended suddenly. His sister claims that performance-enhancing drugs are dangerous medications. They are named “performance-enhancing drugs” in order to lure young individuals who desire to improve their appearances and performances.
Don Hooton, Taylor’s father, formed a foundation to educated youth about risks connected with steroids. He describes which dangers are associated with application of anabolic steroids and other related medications. He also uses slideshow presentations in order to explain that these preparations may cause such negative effects, as diabetes, heart diseases, liver dysfunctions, etc.
Don Hooton tries to teach young individuals about serious risks linked with usage of steroids. But he admits that it is difficult. He claims that many young individuals apply doping products. When their friends see that they become stronger and more muscular, they desire to be like them. They follow their examples in order to change appearance and have more endurance.
Unluckily, several parents think that their children are free from steroid use. Some of them think that their daughters don’t take steroids because these medicines are indicated to gain muscles and body weight in general. But according to numerous sources, girls also take steroids. They take these drugs in order to lose fat. Several parents don’t know that anabolic steroids are also applied to lower fat deposits. That’s why grown-ups also should be educated about effects of steroids. Furthermore, certain parents think that their children don’t administer steroids because these medications are expensive. But it is enough to have 20-500 dollars in order to buy steroids for a cycle.
It is considered that each16th high school student applies steroids. But this point of view is mistaken. Every 16th high school student admits to taking doping products.   But numerous persons hide that they administer these drugs.
Those that listen to Don Hooton’s presentations about steroids express their thanks. They are happy that they get knowledge about these drugs.

Hypocrisy is manifested in those that fight against steroid use in sports


It is known that anabolic steroids are frequently demonized. If an athlete or a bodybuilder uses steroids and/or other doping products, he/she is claimed to be a cheater. Sportswriters report about such individuals as about those who have spoiled their reputation. Anti-doping agencies put great efforts and spend money in other to determine whether certain athletes have doped. Even the government wastes taxpayers’ funds and time in order to prove that certain sportspersons have taken steroids and/or performance-enhancing drugs. It is stated that those who dope take unfair advantages in sports.
Numerous pieces of news describe the fight against steroids. But let think whether arguments against intake of steroids are strong enough to prove that it is disgraceful to take them.
It is stated that steroid-using athletes serve as a bad example for kids and young people. It is known that youth sees many sports stars that use steroids and other related preparations. As a result, young individuals desire to look and be as strong, as these prominent sports figures.  Furthermore, it is widely disputed about health risks linked with steroids. But if you are attentive, you can notice that these arguments are weak because hypocrisy reigns here.
Let examine the most spread arguments against intake of anabolic steroids and/or other related medicines.
According to the first argument, application of steroids is closely associated with some potential health risks. Many articles warn about testicular atrophy and enlarged heart which may occur on account of steroid use. However it may be true, let analyze our life. We consume unhealthy food, however we know that it destroys our health. Certain individuals administer antidepressants that are also quite dangerous. We do also other unhealthy things.
According to another argument against steroids, steroid-using sportspersons have unfair advantages in competitions. They win because they increase performance with these preparations. Let pay attention what happens in other fields, for example, in the world of entertainment.  Many actors and actresses improve their appearances and performances in order to play some roles in movies. They also take unfair advantages over others with the help of several surgeries and other things. But they are not sentenced to bans.
While it is stated that steroid-using sportspersons send bad messages to young people that desire to look like them and follow their examples, no one notices about the bad example of actors and actresses. Young girls also want to look like those they see in magazines.
While federal prosecutors pursue sportspeople that apply steroids, they have nothing to do with actors and actresses who act like steroid-using athletes.
It is clear that arguments against application of steroids are very weak. They display hypocrisy which reigns in our fake world.

Administration of metenolone in sports


Nadzeya Ostapchuk, a shot putter from Belorussia won the gold medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics. But she was stripped of the medal because she was caught using the anabolic steroid metenolone (methenolone). She was asked to provide two samples. The substance metenolone was found in both urine samples.
If you read news related to steroid use in sports, you must know that professional sportspersons and bodybuilders are usually caught administering other steroids and/or doping products. But when it comes to Nadzeya Ostapchuk, she was caught taking metenolone. It is strange, according to statements of anti-doping officers. What does this banned drug represent? Why don’t athletes usually use this medication for increase of performance?
Metenolone belongs to anabolic steroids. It has weak androgenic features. It acts like testosterone, enhancing muscle mass and adding energy.
Although this drug has just weak androgenic nature, it leads to development of sex male characteristics in females. Women that take this medicine may face common virilizing effects: the voice becomes deeper; excessive hair grows on the face and on other parts of the body; etc.
This anabolic steroid can be taken orally or injectionally.
Metenolone (Methenolone) produces amazing effects, when it is taken by sportspersons during their trainings. It is not used during competitions. It doesn’t work, if it is administered only on the day of a competition.
It is also confirmed that it is easy to catch those that apply this steroid.
Side effects of Metenolone (Methenolone) depend on measures which are applied. They include water retention, hypercalcaemia, bone growth, hirsutism, acne formation, hair loss, troubles linked with menstrual cycles, increased libido, etc.
Thus, when you see a female athlete who has deep voice and hirsutism, you may suspect her of steroid use. Actually, it is wrong because these troubles may appear also in those females that don’t administer any steroids. But sometimes these effects display that certain women apply preparations which have androgenic properties.

Australian doctor was suspended for improper practice of medicine


Several doctors abuse their position, prescribing drugs that don’t correspond to medical needs of patients. Why does it happen? It is known that certain medications are considered to be prescription medicines. It means that you can’t obtain them legally, if you don’t have any prescription from your treating doctor. Anabolic steroids belong to such medications. It is illegal to buy steroids without a prescription in certain countries. Those that do it may be punished. They may be sentenced to prison and/or fine. Of course, a lot of individuals are looking for ways to get and use these products without having legal troubles.
Anabolic steroids are often abused. A lot of sportspersons and bodybuilders take these products not for medical needs but for increase of performance. If they live in countries where these medicines can’t be bought legally without prescriptions, they find certain ways to mask their illegal purchase and usage. Sportspeople, bodybuilders and even ordinary people ask their health care providers to prescribe them these preparations, as if they had clinical needs to take them. Thus, certain health care providers promote selling anabolic steroids to those who abuse them. Here is a case.
Peter Grant, an Australian doctor, prescribed steroids to 14 individuals during 9 years. Medical state of these individuals didn’t require application of these products. Thus, the doctor was accused of improper practicing medicine. For example, he recommended to a patient taking such products, as Halotestin, Sustanon, Andriol Testocaps, Deca Durabolin, Scitropin and Proviron. But there was no any medical basis to recommend these medicines to this man. Furthermore, these preparations were prescribed him during nine years.
The health care provider Peter Grant acknowledged that some patients were competing. Thus, he prescribed them steroids. He also admitted to reading scientific information about anabolic steroids. He confirmed that he knew how steroids worked. Thus, he supervised the patients who took anabolic steroids.
Taking these factors into account, it is possible to state that the health care provider Peter Grant was better known by those that applied steroids for enhancement of performance than by those who had to be treated from some health troubles. Peter Grant claimed that he knew that steroids were purchased by his patients only for personal intake.
When the physician appeared in the court, the judge affirmed that the doctor promoted selling steroids. The judge confirmed that Peter Grant had to be punished properly. Peter Grant was suspended from practicing medicine for a year. Furthermore, the judge confirmed that he would be disciplined during the next 2 years.

Sheryl Crow’s role in Lance Armstrong’s doping


The cyclist Lance Armstrong was accused of doping. It was suspected that the sportsperson had taken EPO and other forbidden drugs.
Numerous persons provided their testimonies in the court during the investigation linked with Lance Armstrong’s case. A former girlfriend of the cyclist was also targeted. She was scheduled to appear in the court. Certain sports writers noticed that the musician Sheryl Crow had been interviewed by feds.
The athlete Lance Armstrong and the musician Sheryl Crow were claimed to be one of the most famous couples. They spent a lot of time together. The musician lived with the seven-time winner of Tour de France in Spain. The musician travelled with Lance Armstrong during his workouts. They were in a close relationship, when the cyclist won Tour de France the 7th time.
Lance Armstrong’s former teammates Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton claimed that Lance Armstrong had taken forbidden drugs. They also affirmed that the cyclist had been the leader of a doping team. In addition to these statements, Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton said that Armstrong’s apartment had been full of equipment used for usage of banned products. These individuals were going to testify against Lance Armstrong. They confirmed that Lance Armstrong had won Tour de France 7 times with the help of prohibited medicines.
When it comes to Sheryl Crow, she didn’t appear in the court because the case against the sportsperson was dropped before the hearing.
While the government dropped the case, the USADA continued to prosecute the former athlete. As a result, Lance Armstrong forfeited his titles. He was also sentenced to life-time suspension. Luckily, his charity against cancer was not destroyed. Sponsors continue to support Lance Armstrong and donate. Although his titles are stripped, Lance Armstrong is appreciated because he helps numerous persons that fight against cancer.

Sports journalist: Derek Jeter takes HGH and other doping products


The ESPN2 journalist Skip Bayless accuses Derek Jeter, a baseball player, of steroid use. He has pronounced his thoughts of criticism during the talk show “First take”.
In fact, the ESPN2 journalist doesn’t have any basis in order to suppose that Derek Jeter takes doping products. Despites this fact, the affirmations of Skip Bayless have been spread. Before accusing Derek Jeter of doping, Skip Bayless started to criticize anti-doping program of the MLB. He noticed that the MLB’s tests for prohibited medications are not good enough to detect those that take banned preparations.
The sports journalist Skip Bayless reminded Victor Conte’s point of view connected with testosterone:epitestosterone ratio test that is performed in the MLB. This method is not advanced enough to catch those who administer prohibited drugs. Instead of this method, it is needed to use another. Carbon isotope ratio is more proper.
The ESPN2 journalist Skip Bayless also confirmed that the MLB didn’t have any testing for HGH. The test for this medicine is performed in the MLB just once per year. But blood tests for this medicine should be performed more times per year. Under other circumstances, players may apply this drug and remain undetectable.
So, the journalist suggests that Derek Jeter applies HGH and banned drugs. The ESPN2 journalist also notes that if he were a baseball player, he would use HGH.
So, the ESPN2 journalist suggests that MLB players apply HGH and probably other prohibited drugs without being detected by the anti-doping system.
It goes without saying that the steroid era in baseball is not over. Professional baseball players use various banned preparations and remain undetectable. But no one can accuse a sportsperson of doping, basing only on unsophisticated drug testing. It is necessary to focus on facts, accusing an athlete of intake of banned drugs. Under other circumstances, any suspicion doesn’t have any value.

MLB exposed hoax of Melky Cabrera


It happens often that when athletes test positive for any banned drugs, they try to prove that they have never used any prohibited medicine intentionally. They find different ways to manifest that they are innocent. They do a lot in order to escape from bans and/or other sanctions. Here is a situation.
The professional baseball player Melky Cabrera tested positive for the anabolic steroid testosterone. Undoubtedly, he was sentenced to a 50-game suspension. Like other sportspersons he decided to find a way to prove his innocence and avoid the suspension.
Numerous doping athletes that are caught claim that they have taken a dietary supplement which resulted in positive for certain prohibited substance. Although some sportspersons may have applied contaminated dietary supplements, numerous sportspersons take steroids and choose this way of defense because it works in many situations.
So, Melky Cabrera confirmed that he had taken a dietary supplement that resulted in his positive for testosterone. In fact, it was a lie. Trying to avoid the 50-game suspension, he also created a web site and posted a fictitious product and advertisements which induced selling it. The product didn’t exist in reality. It was just a lie of Melky Cabrera and his associates in order to defend the baseball player.
Juan Nunez, a paid consultant for Athletes’ Career Enhanced and Secured Incorporated (ACES), created the web site.
But the lie turned out to be unsuccessful. The MLB exposed the baseball player and Juan Nunez. So, Melky Cabrera was enforced to serve the suspension.
The ACES got troubles as well. Since Juan Nunez has been a consultant for ACES, the agency and Seth and Sam Levinson were suspected of involving in the hoax. But these persons affirmed that they were not implicated in the creation of the site and the hoax which was invented by Melky Cabrera and Juan Nunez. Juan Nunez also confirmed that Seth and Sam Levinson had not been implicated in this lie.
The case is still investigated by the Food and Drug Administration. It is unclear yet whether other individuals would be also pursued and punished for the hoax.

Do prostitutes in Bangladesh administer anabolic steroids?


Recently Australian Customs and Border Protection detained 4 persons that possessed the anabolic steroids Oxandrolone (Anavar) and Primoteston Depot (testosterone). Andrew Almada, Cheuk Fai Chan, Prabal Islam and Mohammed Islam tried to smuggle these medicines to Bangladesh. The medications were confiscated and these men were detained.
The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper reported about this situation, affirming that 4 individuals were arrested while they desired to smuggle steroids which were intended for administration by prostitutes in Bangladesh. This piece of news surprised some individuals. What does The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper inform about? Do prostitutes apply the same preparations like sportspersons and bodybuilder who try to improve their performance, increasing muscle mass and endurance? Why do prostitutes take anabolic steroids? Which is the purpose?
Some individuals understood that it was wrong to write that Andrew Almada, Cheuk Fai Chan, Prabal Islam and Mohammed Islam tried to smuggle the steroids in order to inject prostitutes with them. Of course, prostitutes don’t administer anabolic steroids. There is confusion here. Prostitutes administer corticosteroids which differ from anabolic steroids totally. Corticosteroids cause other effects. They have capacity to increase performance in prostitutes. While anabolic steroids promote enhancing muscle mass and lower fat deposits, corticosteroids induce wasting muscles and enhance body fat levels.
Orexadon is one of catabolic steroids used by prostitutes. Those that take this medicine look healthier and more attractive. So, such prostitutes that apply this medicine have more clients.
A prostitute who takes Orexadon notices that she has capacity to serve up to 15 clients a day.
Thus, it is possible to affirm that prostitutes don’t take anabolic steroids that are commonly advised for performance-enhancing effects in sports and bodybuilding. Corticosteroids are more suitable medications for them.
The Sydney Morning Herald newspaper published a false report. Andrew Almada, Cheuk Fai Chan, Prabal Islam and Mohammed Islam didn’t try to smuggle steroids for prostitutes in Bangladesh.

Getting recovery with Clomid


When you get steroids for cycles, you should also prepare such preparations that must be administered to get recovery after usage of steroids.
In case a cycle with steroids lasts more than 8 weeks, HCG must be taken during the cycle. It is important to take in consideration that this medication is applied just during steroid cycles.
There such products that must be taken after steroid use. For example, Clomid should be administered after steroid cycles. It is necessary to start taking this medication after androgen levels fall substantially and recovery with this drug becomes possible. It is usually recommended to start applying Clomid with an enhanced measure (300 mg/day) and lower it gradually till 50 mg per day. Then decreased doses are taken until steroid users become convinced that natural secretion of testosterone is restored and testicles have returned to their normal size.
If Clomid is used about 6 weeks and no improvement is observed, it is needed to interrupt administration of this preparation. Then if improvements don’t occur, it is needed to continue using Clomid till recovery is gotten. It is permitted to take this remedy a year. Certain studies have displayed that prolonged usage of this product doesn’t lead to grave problems. However certain individuals may experience vision troubles because of Clomid, these problems are not permanent. They disappear after discontinuation of usage. If any problems related to vision system appear in those that take Clomid, they must stop applying this drug.
Clomid may be also taken after steroid use. A usual dose is 75 mg a day in such situations.
However there are such remedies which help to get recovery after steroid use and keep strength and muscle gains, it is not a good idea to have prolonged steroid cycles.

Clomid and Nolvadex for PCT


Many persons often ask which drug is more appropriate for a PCT: Clomid or Nolvadex. While certain consumers of steroids affirm that Clomid is better for this need, others believe that Nolvadex is more proper. Some individuals claim that Clomid and Nolvadex should be stacked.
When you evaluate structures of these medicines, you may see that they have similar structures. That’s why they have some similar features. But the most of persons and even scientists confirm that Clomid and Nolvadex are wholly different drugs. Which basis does this statement have? These products are used in medicine for various purposes. Nolvadex is indicated for treatment of breast cancer in women. As for Clomid, it is applied in case of infertility. That’s why it is affirmed that these are entirely different medications.
Actually, they may be also taken for different purposes in bodybuilding and sports. Clomid is recommended in order to get recovery after a steroid cycle during a PCT. When it comes to Nolvadex, it is usually utilized as an anti-estrogen compound.
Comparing potency of these preparations, it is possible to see that Nolvadex is more powerful anti-estrogen substance than Clomid.
Both Clomid and Nolvadex have ability to reduce levels of estrogen, stimulating hypothalamus to secrete greater quantities of testosterone.
When it comes to dosages of these products, they differ because one of them is more potent than another. Clomid should be administered in higher doses. Thus, such dosages of Nolvadex, as 20-40 mg, cause more obvious effects than 100-150 mg of Clomid.
Nolvadex is not the most potent anti-estrogen. Such preparations, as Proviron, Arimidex and Viratase, are considered to be more potent but Nolvadex and Clomid work faster.
Sometimes Clomid or Nolvadex may be taken together with Arimidex or Proviron during a steroid cycle. Such combinations are commonly taken in case of gynecomastia.
When you desire to choose which preparation you should take: Nolvadex or Clomid, you should take in consideration certain aspects.
Nolvadex has positive impact on cholesterol levels. It also has more direct influence on natural secretion of testosterone than Clomid. As it has been already mentioned, Nolvadex is more potent than Clomid. In addition to these priorities, Nolvadex is safer. Furthermore, Nolvadex leads to less grave negative results than Clomid because more decreased dosages are needed to produce needed results. Moreover, while side consequences of Clomid are irreversible, those of Nolvadex disappear after discontinuation of usage. The only priority of Clomid is following: it helps to keep more potential gains than Nolvadex.
Knowing these differences between Nolvadex and Clomid, steroid users can make their choice properly.
