Tamoxifen - British Dragon, Thailand

Tamoxifen is a non-steroidal anti-estrogen. It binds to estrogen receptors to prevent attachment of estrogen molecules. The primary medical use for tamoxifen citrate is as a preventative measure for estrogen-responsive breast cancers in women.

In males, testosterone is converted by a process known as aromatization, so-called because of the activity of an enzyme named aromatase. Excess estrogen may cause gynnecomastia, water retention, and fat deposition. Tamoxifen can be used to control such side effects. Tamoxifen stimulates higher production of LH (lutenizing hormone) which in turn boosts natural testosterone. It also improves the HDL (to LDL) cholesterol ratio, which is usually depressed when using steroids.
