Hey guys, so I got a case of gyno that has developed over several months due to (I think) poor diet and stressful lifestlyle, here are the picture: unsee.cc/b213cfdd ...I haven't used steroids. I've cleaned up my diet and am exercising for last few months, but the gyno doesn't go away. Would it help me to take an aromatase inhibitor? I'm also carrying quite a bit of water retention. Would something like proviron be safer to use, less side-effects? any thing else that could help?

You’d need Nolvadex but if this isn’t steroid related you should go see a Dr.

AI’s and proviron won’t help.

I don't have lumps, just the breasts are large, triangular and "sticking out'. I doubt it pubertal gyno. I'm in my early 30's, and didn't have this in my early 20's. Can someone explain to my AI's and proviron don't work for gyno/water-retention, but tamoxifen does? Isn't tamoxifen only a partial estrogen antagonist, while the others are more "pure" estrogen antagonists?

Ok let's start from the beginning. We don't need to get into pharmacology to solve this. You yourself said that it's gyno due to poor diet and stress.

So clean up your diet and manage your stress. And keep in mind it's not gyno. It's just some fat and fluid.

Google tdee calculator and fill it out. The number it gives you is how many calories to eat daily to maintain weight. Cut 500 to 1000 off and that's how many cals to lose weight.

Given time and consistency this will clear up.

I agree that it is most likely just fat and fluid and will clear up as you clean things up and get more active... You could add an orange a day to reduce estorgen slightly if you want... It will aid in weight loss as well.

But, my question is, have you been taking any prohormones, or anything like DHEA, or anything like that?

Not producing milk and didn't take any pro-hormones. It has been an issue especially for this year, getting worse for several months. Like I said, I've been trying the diet and exercise route for months now. I posted pic again here (it seems old link wasnt working): unsee.cc/fb194e7b/ . I find it interesting that people here are recommending against AI's and proviron.. Is it cos they have many side-effects or are dangerous somehow?

As you can see it looks extremely ugly.. but I have that type of water retention everywhere.. Any safe drug/supplement I could try? I mean, if it's estrogen related, shouldn't an AI take care of it pretty much immediately?

Looks like fat to me. You need diet and exercise to clear that up, not drugs.

Dont search for it. Put it straight into the URL box on your browser. Maybe try a different browser if it doesn't work. I tried on several PCs and it works on all of them

You have little to no gyno, trust me, I have gyno and know first hand what it is. Your problem is that you are still well above 30% bf IMO... Now if you really want to help "get rid" of aromitization and e2 in your body, continue to workout... I'd advise you hire a strength coach to build muscle and a diet coach to help you in the kitchen. If you build your pec muscles up (and all your other muscles) you will look better than just having loose skin and fat dominating... Plus that will help you burn fat more efficiently.
