painful nipple lump

[JolietKev]

Good morning. When I got up this morning I noticed that I had some pain under the top of my nipple. There is a small cyst like bump under there and painful to the touch. Has anyone else had something like this. I started taking a TBooster a few weeks ago so I am wondering if this had anything to do with it. Thanks.

uh oh....

a legal test booster op?

I believe so, However I got it from an independent supplement store. Cant remember the name, I threw away the box a few weeks ago.

[zzfh]

sounds like d gyno op....

[JolietKev]

I believe the brand name was reaction nutrition.

Gyno, probably. That is one of the risks of taking something without a prescription or not under a doctor that knows what he or she is doing. In this case, it might have slightly elevated your test, but it also elevated your estrogen levels, which can cause gyno and also cancel out any hopeful benefits from the test. If it were me, I would stop immediately and see a doctor.

Thanks. Going to do so. Anything I can take? Does it ever go away by itself?

You could try Formadrol Extreme but likely it's going to take a Dr. visit. Besides it may not be gyno at all, it could be a fatty tumor or cancer. I'd get it checked out.

But shame on you for not knowing exactly what you're taking!

Welcome. Old Time Lifter said it very well.

Yep. I hope it's not gyno, too, but the timing with the so-called booster raises suspicions.

Slightly different cause, but same result.

As a perimenopausal woman (sigh), two years ago, my doc inserted a bio-identical testosterone hormone pellet to help level out my tweaking hormones.

Within a month, I developed a breast mass about the size of a grape. Hard, and painful to the touch.

Ultrasounds revealed it was a complex mass, and my options were to either have it surgically removed, or allow it to shrink on its own. I opted to leave it alone.

Two years later, it's still there, but probably the size of a raisin now.

But, like the guys said - too much T becomes E, and that's going to cause some bad side effects, like breast lumps.

Definitely stop the T, and go see your doc. I imagine they'll send you for a mammogram.

Thanks! I was actually taking 1/2 dose because I was getting headaches from the full dose. The guy that sold it to me said that it had the same compounds as the old Novadex from Gaspari.

I'm going to doubt his statement on that as it was my understanding that Novadex should have helped gyno and not caused it. I think he's got something undisclosed in there and may have used some of Novadex ingredients in order to try and offset the chance of gyno. If I had to hazard a guess I'd think there was SD in the mixture.

Your statement of headaches makes me think it was spiking your blood pressure and that is a side effect of several ph's with SD being one of the worst offenders.

Novadex XT was different from Nolvadex.

[Phattso]

Novadex XT was different from Nolvadex.

True. Nolvadex is the prescription. Novadex is a knock-off over the counter herbal concoction that may or may not be effective. My guess is that it would not be effective enough to help your case.

The nipple area is now starting to get a little swollen on one side.

See your doc asap

Wouldn't surprise me. It really doesn't take much to throw all of your hormones out of whack when you supplement with just one. I wouldn't recommend taking anything else at this point, even to counter what you suspect this stuff did.

Can you see your doc tomorrow?

^^ This, it was supposed to do the same thing hence why they used a name so similar as to try and make it sound legit.

Not sure if they are open tomorrow or not. I will have to see.

A fairly well-known area bodybuilder put together a stack that I believe had T-Boosters and Prohormones and other stuff for me a couple years ago. Strength went through the roof, but after a few days or so, my nipples itched like friggin' crazy. Dumped it pronto. Estrogen blockers, PCT, blah, blah,blah. I don't want to mess with that crap at all. The one and only time I dabbled in it. Tell you what though, if my strength increased using that stuff, it's gotta be insane with the real hardcore gear.

[mal1ce]

[azstrengthcoach]

Go see your doc, don't lie about what you're on

[pharmamarketer]

You could blame someone else for Having it. That is always an option

[JolietKev]

Went to the Doc. They poked and prodded. Said it was an ingrown hair. An infected cyst. They gave me an antibiotic and suggested heat 2x a day.

Wow. I somehow pictured it being a lot larger than an ingrown hair.

Did she lance it and get the hair out?

Big relief for you, I'm sure.

Gyno?
Never,ind, just read your other comment.

[IronCharles]

Glad to hear it's nothing major, Kevin.
















Also disappointed not a single mention of heavy penguins in this thread!
