Cyclofenil is not an anabolic/androgenic
steroid. Cyclofenil works as an antiestrogen and, at the same time,
increases the body's own testosterone production. Since Cyclofenil itself
is only a very weak and mild estrogen it occupies, the estrogen receptors,
and prevents the stronger estrogens from bonding with the receptors
thereby becoming active. As a matter of fact, this works so well that some
athletes take Cyclofenil during the steroid treatment in order to maintain
a low estrogen level. The result is a lower water retention produced by
the steroids and less gynecomastia. The athlete has a harder appearance,
making this is a compound that can potentially be taken during the
preparation for a competition. Bodybuilders, however, use it less
frequently since they prefer the more readily available Nolvadex and
Proviron com-pounds.
Based on our experience, the dosage lies be-tween 400 and 600 mg/day.
Lower dosages usually do not show satisfying results. Cyclofenil, for this
purpose, is either used during steroid treatment, after the treatment,
before competitions with doping tests, or by "natural
bodybuilders". Like HCG and Clomid, Cyclofenil is ineffective in
women since it has a positive influence on the male hormone system. Even
in men, the increased testosterone level attributed to the effect of
Cyclofenil is not high enough to speak of drastic improvements; however,
strength gains, a slight gain in body weight, a noticeable increase in
energy, and a higher regeneration are possible. These results are
noticeable particularly in advanced athletes who have little or no
experience with steroids. Cyclofenil needs a response time of
approximately one week before it becomes effective.
In a few cases athletes experience a light acne, increased sexual desire,
and hot flashes. The first two secondary symptoms are especially
indicative that the compound is actually effective. After discontinuance
some athletes report a depressed mood and a slight decrease in physical
strength. Those who take Cyclofenil as an antiestrogen during steroid
treatment could experience a rebound effect when the compound is
discontinued.
In the meantime, it is very difficult to find Cyclofenil and it is rarely
found on the black market. The Mexican Fertodur by Schering contains 16
tablets of 200 mg each which are welded into aluminum foil with the name
"Fertodur Tabletas" printed on top. Such a package costs $25-30
on the black market.
