Description:
It has been established that breast cancer is responsible for more than 13% of all deaths in women when it comes to different types of cancer. It is therefore a condition that needs to be battled against with all means necessary. Of course, the best way to treat breast cancer is to prevent it by regular checkups that can even be done at home, by checking the breast tissue for any unusual lumps or growths. The good news is that if breast cancer is noticed in the early stages, the survival rate is very high. In some cases, surgery is required, but in the majority of cases, the medications will do the trick. One of the drugs most commonly used in treating breast cancer is Nolvadex, a drug that is metabolized into hydroxytamoxifen which prevents the action of estrogen that is most commonly responsible for the growth of breast cancer. The way in which Nolvadex works could be best described as a broken key. Namely, this medication, or more precisely, its metabolite binds to the estrogen receptors in cancer cells, thus preventing anything else (estrogen) from binding to the receptors. This way, Nolvadex prevents the growth of cancer and helps in treating it. Due to its effect on estrogen receptors, there are other uses for Nolvadex, such as in treating infertility in female patients who are suffering from anovulatory disorders. Another condition that can be treated by Nolvadex is gynecomastia, as well as a rare condition known as retroperitoneal fibrosis. Some other properties of Nolvadex make it a useful tool in treating manic episodes in patients suffering from bipolar disorder and it is also being tried for preventing angiogenesis.
Tamoxifen Citrate Specification:
1. Tamoxifen Citrate is a SERM that acts as both antagonist and agonist in relation to the estrogen hormone. It is an anti-estrogen in that it binds to estrogen receptors in certain parts of the body, particularly in the mammary tissue.
2. This action prevents estrogen from acting on its originally intended point of binding. This makes Tamoxifen Citrate valuable to breast cancer patients as breast cancer feeds off of estrogen. And it's valuable to steroid users as increased estrogen levels can bind to the mammary tissue and lead to gynecomastia.
3. The relationship Tamoxifen Citrate has in being an anti-estrogen is fairly straightforward and well understood by many, but it's its relationship to being an estrogen in other areas that's surprising to some.
4. Tamoxifen Citrate acts as an estrogen on the liver. Liver related estrogenic activity has been shown to improve cardiovascular health, particularly as it relates to cholesterol. This can be very advantageous for the bodybuilding steroid user as most steroids have a negative impact on cholesterol levels.
Side Effects of Tamoxifen Citrate
Possible side effects of Tamoxifen Citrate do exist, but it is one of the more well-tolerated SERM’s on the market. Most men will not have an issue with this medication, although it is possible. Side effects of Tamoxifen Citrate do appear to be more common in women, but they are still not what
we’d call “common.” The most common side effects of Tamoxifen Citrate include:
· Vaginal Itching, bleeding, discharge or discomfort
