stalled for 14 weeks at 5mg and I refuse to panic this time
Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles.
The claim: hair loss matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have been asserting it confidently for about 10 months without either producing anything.
What would actually settle it is 19 people measuring the same thing the same way. I have started; my numbers are below. They lean one way but not strongly enough for me to declare victory.
If you have data, post the data. If you have an opinion, flair it as an opinion.
best — the order this archive was captured in
hair loss is real and usually reversible when you stabilize
Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?
the early fullness passes. i promise. not medical advice.
Yeah, the nausea hit on day 6 for me too, not day 1.
IANAD and neither is anyone upvoting this

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
I am going to push back on this slightly.
That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.
Titration speed is a side-effect dial far more than an efficacy dial.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 25 weeks to accept.
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.

Small correction: the trial was 17 weeks, not 40. Does not change your point but people will quote it.
Yeah, the constipation hit on day 16 for me too, not day 1.
Not to be pedantic but gallbladder and constipation are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
resting heart rate moved up 20 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
severe abdominal pain is an urgent-care question, not a forum question
Mechanistically the bit that matters is constipation. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.
Are you on a pen or research vial? The formulation changes the profile.
week 43 and the fatigue is finally getting better
sulphur burps are disgusting but not dangerous, 3 weeks and they stopped
constipation is real, boring, and fixable
