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.

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

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. :)
