    They just don't get it, do they?

    PSA monitoring is standard with testosterone therapy - the concern about testosterone plus GH on prostate growth is legitimate and the worry about hyperplasia rather than cancer specifically is a nuanced read that most endos don't emphasize enough. The baseline PSA before starting testosterone...

    Lowering Reta Dose - Still Losing?

    5mg from 10mg after a break is a reasonable test - most people find a lower dose still maintains appetite suppression once you've been on reta.

    Starting Reta - First Week Results?

    10 vials with BAC paired is the right call for a slow titration - not racing through supply at the starting dose. R10 at 6+ weeks per vial is conservative in a good way; the slow ramp gives the GI system time to adjust before hitting the higher doses where Reta's effect compounds.

    AOD-9604 & Tirz ... anyone?

    Well, not many people here like AOD, but others swear by it. I've been taking it for a while now and it seems to work when I do cardio and strength training. I'm also on 10mg of triz and 3mg of reta, and have been for a while, with good results.

    Retatrutide: Anyone else tried it?

    I'm so tired of feeling hungry all the time. If this really works as well as everyone says, it could be a game changer. But the side effects sound scary!

    Just started. Terrified!

    It's not a failure at all! It's a brave decision to prioritize and take care of yourself ❤️ Ozempic etc are medicines, after all, so why wouldn't we use them if they can help! But, please don't get discouraged if your first few weeks are difficult. Your body has to get used to the medication and...

    Constant Tiredness on GLP-1's?

    Yeah, that makes sense. I should probably start with the basics before jumping to conclusions. Thanks!

    Constant Tiredness on GLP-1's?

    I'm not trying to put anyone down, but a lot of those supplements that give you energy from ginseng are super overblown.

    Constant Tiredness on GLP-1's?

    Hi everyone, I'm 30 and feeling totally drained. It's like I'm running on empty all the time. I wake up feeling like I haven't slept, and I'm dragging myself through the day. By evening, I'm just completely done, even when I have not done very much. I've tried getting more sleep, but it does...

    SBC's Ozempic bod?

    I heard that generics are coming soon, maybe that will bring costs down? I saw an article about Ozempic generics in Canada within the year. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-ozempic-generic-brands-canada-type-2-diabetes/

    SBC's Ozempic bod?

    To everyone suggesting steroids or prohormones...if he were, he'd be noticeably bigger. He looks natty to me. I don't judge what anyone does, but this isn't a steroid-user physique.
