[Discussion] we are measuring Wegovy at the wrong time and calling it noise
Posting this because I searched for it and got nothing useful.
Setup: 7.5mg, week 35, constipation present but not ruining anything. I changed exactly one variable — weekly dosing — and tracked it for 17 weeks.
Result: a difference, but a small one, and well inside what I would call noise if someone else posted it. So I am putting it here rather than presenting it as a finding. If two or three other people have done the same thing we might actually learn something.
Not medical advice, obviously. This is one person with a spreadsheet.
best — the order this archive was captured in

Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 97.4% on the same vial is normal.
Slight fix: the number was 97.6, not 98.1. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
How long were you at 1.0mg before you moved up?
pens are overpriced, research vials are research grade, same molecule different price
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.
Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.
titration speed is semaglutide plus side effects, period
Right, and the corollary is that stopping escalation does not reset your tolerance, it just pauses the clock.

okay but what dose of sema are you on
my TSH moved before the scale did and i nearly missed it
Ozempic versus Wegovy versus research grade is the wrong argument, they are literally the same molecule

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

Cosigning. The slow route gets the outcome, the fast route gets you the side effects.
