Six weeks at 0.25mg came first, then a month at 0.5mg, and then I stepped up to 1mg and right away got awful diarrhoea, bad indigestion and eggy burps for about 3 days. I missed 3 days of work. Assumed it was a stomach bug, so I injected again a week after and got exactly the same thing, and the...

53 year old guy here. Ss31's running currently alongside a steady maintenance reta amount, goal weight already reached. Planning to add tesa next, mainly hoping it helps rebuild some lean muscle that got lost along the way. Would kicking off with a nightly 2mg amount be reasonable, or is a...

Curious which meds people are on who get zero side effects. I know nothing is guaranteed and everyone reacts differently, but Id like to pick whatever bothers the fewest people. And had any of you already dealt with stomach trouble like IBS or a nervy stomach beforehand? Does that make side...

Ha, I grabbed 600mg of KPV, obviously, but now I'm still shopping around for more tirz. Ran my numbers again and I'm sitting on just under 5 years of stash, which weirdly bugs me. By then either tirz will be nearly over the counter, or prices will have crashed because some fancy new pep does it...

Just researching here, curious if anyone found real benefit from splitting their weekly amount into smaller doses. Heard it can ease certain side effects, though others say there's no solid clinical backing for that claim. Would love to hear from anyone who's tried both approaches and how it went.

Oh man, the late-night kitchen wandering. The second and third month on this medication were rough for exactly that reason. Food and I already had baggage, classic stress eater over here, and then out of nowhere my body decided to bolt on a brand new sweets obsession over top of it all?? Caught...

Started on Mounjaro first, wanted to move over to Retatrutide. Partway through I realized Reta wasn't giving me anywhere near the same appetite suppression Tirzepatide did, so I raised that back up and eased off Reta a bit - currently running 8mg Tirz plus 6mg of reta each week, split into two...

Curious if anyone's cycled through mounjaro, retatrutide, maybe even ozempic in rotation. Been running mounjaro at a stronger dose recently and it genuinely feels stalled out. Appetite's crept back, some weight's returning, and whatever used to keep alcohol interest down has faded too. Could...

M_R_S_Health asking the right question. Diet and movement alongside the medication is what shapes the long term outcome.

Reta first makes sense - the mechanism adds differently than Cagri's amylin pathway. Solid sequencing.

Same powder volume between 15mg and 30mg is expected - concentration doubles but lyophilized mass looks similar to the eye. The labeling crossover the source describes is a separate QC category entirely.

Anyone tried ipamorelin solo? I know CJC is the combo but the histamine reactions terrify me. Pretty sure the CJC is the culprit, not the IPA itself. Anyone have ipamorelin-only results?

pcos here, usually no periods without medication. mounjaro 2.5 — suddenly every 10 days, went through 4 cycles then settled. periods got longer too, 5 days became 7-8. no special info but my doc said iron supplements and hemoglobin check might help.

weight fluctuates up and down but trend is downward. was lucky to drop a pound a week starting out, now it's about 1 lb per month. you need to exercise to keep muscle and avoid a plateau. meds can only get you so far—body tries to protect itself. I'm doing 5mg every 13-14 days now and my 3-month...

before and after pics show the real change. blood sugar used to be 300, now sits 90-135 which is insane feeling better. on 15mg and targeting 125lbs at 5'8"—started at 250, down to 149. doc approved it so don't come at my goals. whole body just feels lighter and healthier.
