Low dose success!

pull your lipids, blood pressure, glucose, A1c—if any of those are off, that changes the game. raising HGH when glucose is high makes it worse. and most people online are dosing crazy high with real risks. if you're on GLP meds they should help buffer some of the sugar stuff.
 
Hate to hear the alcohol stuff's back. But honestly I'd wonder if a pause is the answer. You had some wins on the meds early on, maybe your dose just isn't enough now? Don't think there's proof that stopping resets anything.
 
My provider has me check in at every renewal to catch side effects, concerns, dosing, weight loss. You don't have monthly check-ins?
 
The insulin resistance angle with PCOS changes how the low-dose response reads. 35 lbs at the starting dose without escalating is a strong outcome.
 
Starting low and evaluating before adjusting is exactly how titration is supposed to work - the formal term just names what most people figure out intuitively. PCOS response to GLP-1 tends to show earlier and more consistently at lower doses than the standard weight-only profile, which probably explains the consistent results here.
 
TRT with fertility-preservation support is a reasonable combination when hormonal optimization is the goal without shutting down natural production entirely.
 
Low dose for LDL reduction is a reasonable secondary goal - the lipid benefit tends to appear early and doesn't require maximum dosing.
 
The 0.25-0.5mg weekly for inflammation use case is underreported compared to the weight loss data, but the mechanism makes sense - GIP and GLP-1 pathways have direct anti-inflammatory effects independent of weight reduction. Whether the ultra-low dose is stable long-term depends on the individual, and the Reddit anecdotes are a small sample. The pill's dosing limits are a real constraint; injectable tirz gives control to go below the standard titration floor.
