Does Nolva Affect Libido on Cycle?

I have talked about my story in another thread so I have decided to do a cycle now and then I will cruise after it.
I started taking 500mg test sustanon - I got it directly from a pharmacy in Turkey -it has a barcode on it and the Turkish authority sticker so I guess it is legit- .

My libido went up, better erection in the first two weeks I was taking 25mg aromasin twice a week, but when I introduced Nolva just in the third day my libido faded away and my erection started to be soft.

Do you think nolva should be blamed for that?

Studies show that tamoxifen can decrease libido. I am a TRT guy but have used tamoxifen toward the tail end of my cycles getting things closer to equilibrium or for early gyno symptoms. I can tell you right now using tamoxifen, yes my libido is very low.

Nolva blocks e2 in the brain. E2 in the brain is needed for libido. Therefore, Nolva can lower libido. I’ve experienced this

Your’e already taking aromasin, why did you add nolva, in the third week? You probably crashed your e2 causing a drop in libido.
Either take aromasin, and if it deals with high e2, there is no need for adding nolva.
If you have trouble dialing in the aromasin, then nolva by itself is probably going to be an easier option.

For libido Aromasin was sufficient, but for gyno it was getting bigger anyway. So I thought adding nolva will solve the problem.
But I am confused I still have no gains no extra weights nothing changed at all is this a proof that my Test can be bunked?

If you are still only 3-4 weeks in then its possible the you haven’t got a surge from the gear yet. 300mg/wk is not a large amount for a cycle(though it is enough to see significant gains in muscle mass)

On a small amount I don’t usually get a surge like I do with say 600mgs/week, where on week 3 or so when heavy weights start to feel light and you can start adding lots of extra weight…
On a small amount I find the size gains come, but its all slow and steady. Workload and capacity increases not so much the strength though. Others may be different.

Your gear is unlikely to be fake if you were getting gyno symptoms.

That’s diet and training related; you’d be making progress even without the AAS if you had those in place
