Last week, at the gym, I found a re d gel cap on the floor. I picked it up and took a look at the pill.

Novofen, which according to the internets is an estrogen inhibitor. Part of a steroid regimen.

I no longer feel quite so bad about not being as built as the other guys at the gym who go as often as I do.

i suppose someone with estrogen-receptive breast cancer could have dropped it... but given the setting, that's probably less likely.

Thanks for sharing this.

And really, my gym has less muscle mass than average, since it's a corporate one - all members are working for my employer.

o_O oh my.

I could also be used by someone (like me) who has a BRCA1 gene mutation and is at high risk of developing breast cancer. We represent about 2% of the population.

Still, given the circumstances, probably not.

I wonder what the intersection between that mutation and intersexed persons presenting as male. Then add on the maximum sample size of about 2500 for my building. :)

:-D Very likely not, then.
