$75.00
Nolvadex, also known as tamoxifen, is a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM). It’s mainly used for breast cancer treatment and prevention. Tamoxifen works by binding to estrogen receptors in the breast tissue, blocking the effects of estrogen in the breast tissue which can inhibit the growth of estrogen-dependent breast cancer cells. It’s also used in bodybuilding to prevent and treat gynecomastia and to help restore natural testosterone production.
