Nolvadex is the most well known and widely used Anti Estrogen.
Nolvadex works by binding to the estrogen receptors in the body, preventing estrogen from binding to these sites. Hence,
why Nolvadex is referred to also as an "estrogen blocker" or by it's more medical term: SERM (Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator).
In women Nolvadex is used as a breast cancer medication, blocking estrogen is vital to stop cancer spread.
In men Nolvadex is used to mainly prevent gynecomastia (formation of female like breast tissue in men).
Nolvadex is also used to promote the secretion of LH (Luteinizing hormone). LH is a very important hormone for both women and men.
In females, LH stimulates the saturation and release of ova (eggs) as known as ovulation.
In men, LH is responsible for the production of testosterone (the male hormone) by the Leydig cells of the testes in males.
Athletes and bodybuilders who use anabolic steroids and other performance enhancing drugs, frequently use Nolvadex
in order to block estrogen that result as a side effect from using drugs.
Since Nolvadex also acts as LH stimulator, much like clomid does. It
encourages natural testosterone production in men. Many men prefer Nolvadex over Clomid
for that purpose, in fear that Clomid causes many side effects while Nolvadex doesn't.
This is not quite documented in medical literature, since most trials used Nolvadex for
treating breast cancer in women rather than encouraging LH and testosterone production in men.

Before Using
WARNING: Tamoxifen rarely may cause serious (possibly fatal) side effects.

If you are taking Nolvadex for prevention of breast cancer (those with ductal carcinoma in situ-DCIS, or those at high risk for breast cancer) you should discuss with your doctor the risks of treatment as compared to the benefits. However, if you are taking tamoxifen for treatment of breast cancer, the proven benefits clearly are greater than the risk of side effects. Consult your doctor or pharmacist for more details. Some medicines or medical conditions may interact with Nolvadex. INFORM YOUR DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST of all prescription and over-the-counter medicine that you are taking. DO NOT TAKE Nolvadex if you are also taking letrozole. ADDITIONAL MONITORING OF YOUR DOSE OR CONDITION may be needed if you are taking fluorouracil, mitomycin or rifampin.
