6 months in and sulphur burps are still the thing I get wrong

Resolved Receipts ×8 Long Haul ×3 Well Actually ×1

Reporting in. 6 months in and sulphur burps are still the thing I get wrong.

6 months — those are the numbers, and they are the ones I am willing to defend.

Constipation is mostly reduced intake plus reduced fluid, not a direct effect. That is why the boring fibre and water answer keeps working.

Hair shedding after significant weight loss is a telogen effect that follows the rate of loss. It is not specific to these compounds and it resolves.

That is everything I have. The rest is opinion and I have tried to keep it out.

A symptom that begins the day after the shot and fades by day four tracks the exposure curve. One that appears at random in week 6 probably does not, and that is worth saying to a clinician rather than to us.

Bought four different things to fix my constipation. What actually worked was eating half as fast.

Bought four different things to fix my constipation.

Agreed, with the caveat that "usually settles" is not "always settles" and the exceptions should still get asked about properly.

reflux at night, try not eating in the three hours before bed

fatigue plus low intake is usually just low intake

Nobody warned me about reflux and I would have liked the warning. It was not dangerous, it was just deeply unpleasant and completely unexpected.

sulphur burps are unpleasant and they are not dangerous

Flair set to Question. Also the standing reminder that nothing on this board is medical advice.

smaller meals, earlier, is the boring advice that works

The effect on gastric emptying is most pronounced early and attenuates with continued dosing, which is the mechanism behind the "it settles at a stable dose" pattern the whole board reports.

write down when it starts and stops, the pattern is the useful part

the constipation that arrives at week 79 out of nowhere is usually something else

a rough fortnight at each step is normal, a rough three months is not

About c/sideeffects

Side-effect experience and management, with a strong bias toward the ones that are common and boring (nausea, constipation, reflux, fatigue, sulphur burps) and a hard line on the ones that are not (severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, jaundice, vision changes). This community is not a substitute for urgent care and the mods will say so bluntly.

  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
