Description

Clomid (Clomiphene Citrate) is in the class of drugs called Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERM). It has anti-estrogen effects and was originally developed as a fertility medication for women who do not ovulate normally.

Clomid is also sometimes prescribed for the treatment of hypogonadism in men as an alternative option to testosterone replacement therapy, with excellent results often seen in this area (increases the output of luteinizing hormone by the pituitary gland) which is why Clomid became such a sought-after drug for those using anabolic steroids.

In the world of bodybuilding, Clomid is highly prized for its ability to mitigate estrogenic side effects caused by many steroids during a cycle, as well as for combating the suppression of natural testosterone as a result of using steroids which is the main goal of its use in post cycle therapy.

Two of the most dreaded estrogen caused side effects that anabolic steroid users want to avoid are water retention and gynecomastia (gyno). Clomid is useful for tackling both adverse effects which, if left to advance, can lead to some serious negative implications.

Excess water retention can not only ruin your physique and mask your gains, but also lead to high blood pressure. While gyno can become untreatable if left too long, with surgery the only option. So, it goes without saying that Clomid is a hugely powerful tool in the arsenal of any anabolic steroid user.
