How does PCT work?

I know Clomid and Nolva are the best things to use while on post cycle therapy (pct) but I was curious of why they are? Like what do they do? I would normally search around till I found this answer, but for some reason, the search function decided to stop working for me since the switch over to the new Bulleton version.

Nothing to technical please ha

nolva and clomid are both SERMs (selective estrogen receptor modulators) meaning they both have the same function.
They both bind to estrogen receptors rendering free estrogen useless. they do not really "shut down" estrogen production, though after having no test in your system after a cycle, the body may not produce anymore. both clomid AND nolva bind at estrogen receptors in the hypothalumus - the hypothalumus then senses a lack of estrogen, since estrogen cannot bind to the hypothalumus. the hypothalumus then produces luteinizing hormone (LH) which triggers the sex organs to produce more sex hormones - in men the testes will produce more testosterone.


Understand?

Sounds good, thanks for explainin it. So how would Post Cycle by Protein Factory compare? From what I understand there is no effects from that to increase test production. Thats a major downside....
