I just wanted to post this. There is alot of info out there right now on the baords, but I'm not sure what's true or not. Considering how long tamoxifen has been available, Armidex and letro are fairly new drugs. Arimidex is actually superior to tamoxifen in treating breast cancer and is being studied as we speak in whether or not it can treat gynecomastia. These studies that have already been done show some promise. Studies have shown that it does, in fact, help with gyno, but it is not clear to what extent.

I could go on and on about that, but I wanted to compare it to letro.

I was having some difficulty finding much on letro too. It is a relatively new drug, but I was pretty suprised to find this.

"Newer aromatase inhibitors such as anastrozole and letrozole may have therapeutic potential but no study has been published to confirm its efficacy in treatment of gynecomastia."

I will be updating this thread when i can get more info. I am going to compare the two substances and see just how different they are.

Depends. If you are only getting the lump removed, it is possible ot get it again. I know that it's possible to have the gland removed, but I can't imgaine that this doesn't come without a other consequences. You will most likely end up with inverted nipples too.

For me Nolvadex works great! Actually I need it just in first cycle on others I do not need any E-blockers.
