HOW TO GET RID OF GYNECOMASTIA: INTRO INTO RALOXIFENE

GUIDE TO RALOXIFENE: HOW TO GET RID OF GYNECOMASTIA
To those of you struggling to get rid of gynecomastia aka 'man boobs', there may be a pharmaceutical option to help reduce and get rid of stubborn breast tissue so you lose that puffy chest and it returns fo normal size. This pharmaceutical being raloxifene

What is Raloxifene:

Raloxifene is a selective estrogen receptor modulator, a compound that has estrogen agonist activity at some sites and antagonist activity at others. In Breast and Uterine Tissue (Antagonism): The disrupted helix 12 configuration prevents the recruitment of key coactivators (such as the steroid receptor coactivator-1, SRC-1). Instead, it promotes the recruitment of corepressors (like NCoR or SMRT). This halts the transcription of oestrogen-responsive genes, preventing cellular proliferation and blocking oestrogen-dependent cell division

Citations: Seeman E. Raloxifene. J Bone Miner Metab. 2001;19(2):65-75. doi: 10.1007/s007740170043. PMID: 11281162.
Shiau AK, et al. Cell. 1998;95(7):927-937. (For the physical 1ERR crystal structure forcing Helix 12 out of alignment).Shang Y, Brown M. Science. 2002;295(5564):2465-2468. (For the tissue-specific recruitment of NCoR/SMRT over SRC-1 in breast cells to stop division). [1, 2, 3]

But what does this actually mean in simpler terms:

Raloxifene acts as an estrogen antagonist. It blocks estrogen from stimulating breast tissue, which lowers the risk of invasive breast cancer in high-risk postmenopausal women but can also reduce gynecomastia tissue quite substantially (gynecomastia is enlargement of breast glandular tissue in males)

Study to back this up:

Objectives: To assess the efficacy of the anti-estrogens raloxifen in the medical management of persistent pubertal gynecomastia.
Study design: Retrospective chart review of 38 consecutive patients with persistent pubertal gynecomastia who presented to a pediatric endocrinology clinic. Patients received reassurance alone or a 3- to 9-month course of an estrogen receptor modifier (Raloxifene).
Results: Mean (SD) age of treated subjects was 14.6 (1.5) years with gynecomastia duration of 28.3 (16.4) months. Mean reduction in breast nodule diameter 2.5 cm (95% CI 1.7, 3.3, P <.0001) with raloxifene. Improvement was seen in 91% receiving raloxifene, but a greater proportion had a significant decrease (>50%) with raloxifene (86%). No side effects were seen in any patients.
Conclusion: Inhibition of estrogen receptor action in the breast appears to be safe and effective in reducing persistent pubertal gynecomastia.

– DISCLAIMER: This study also features tamoxifen however my main focus here is on the effects of raloxifene as I will be ordering this soon so I will eventually be able to provide anecdotal evidence.

Dosage: 60mg daily until the lump shrinks (can take 3-6 months), then taper to 30mg. Maintenance: 30mg daily.

Potential side effects: Hot flashes, leg cramps, joint pain and in rarer instances blood clots as there is also an increased risk of deep vein thrombosis.

Just a little guide, used some ai for the explanations to use correct vocabulary to help me out. Please tag friends to inform them about this and make my miniguide more popular.

w thread, thx for mention bhai + bump

 

[sziabattya]

TL;DR

Dosage: 60mg daily until the lump shrinks (can take 3-6 months), then taper to 30mg. Maintenance: 30mg daily.

good post tho i think

 

[notamonLTNsub5]

couldn’t an AI accomplish this? anything that stops testosterone from aromatizing?

only first 5 see the tags. so only me and the other first 4 people saw the mention. good post though

Would this work on Fibrotic Tissue?

I mean, SERM's (And many other Pharma) can prevent Gyno, but what if the Gyno is already set in place?

only first 5 see the tags. so only me and the other first 4 people saw the mention. good post though

Should I mention them in comments then

yeah five at a time, you only tagged 10 so just do the last 5

Mirin bro, bumping and saving this

 

[volgaTz]

only have 9 tabs left need to order new ones asap

 

[Miki]

couldn’t an AI accomplish this? anything that stops testosterone from aromatizing?

AI is better for prevention, and AIs only work for this in some cases as they lower overall estrogen production whereas ralox binds to estrogen receptors in the breast which directly counters the gyno making it more effective

Can help but the effects are reduced i believe

Its like 3k per boob tho

Its like 3k per boob tho

most people are better off shredding down first before getting surgery

not sure why so many fatties get it in the first place

probably confusing man boobs with gyno lol
