week 21 check-in — 37kg down, early fullness manageable, one thing confusing me
Quick one. Canada here. formulary works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given…

comment on someone explain hair loss to me like I have not read a paper in years in c/sideeffects · 124 points · 5 months ago
constipation is real, boring, and fixable
comment on does A1c actually matter or is it forum lore at this point in c/bloodwork · 69 points · 5 months ago
eGFR noise during rapid loss is expected
comment on [Results] 7 weeks, 41kg, and formulary was the hard part in c/insurancefights · 5 points · 5 months ago
Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.
comment on [PSA] formulary is not what most of this community thinks it is in c/insurancefights · 71 points · 5 months ago
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
comment on is it normal to get reflux at week 70 in c/sideeffects · 34 points · 5 months ago
Disagree. What you are describing is consistent with hair loss, not with what you concluded.
comment on what changed for me between week 20 and week 63 in c/compounding · 39 points · 6 months ago
I love that this community will spend 40 comments on a detail. That pedantry is why the numbers here matter.
comment on is it normal to get injection-site soreness at week 4 in c/sideeffects · 3 points · 6 months ago
resting heart rate moved up 15 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating
comment on [Vendor] WXT order #16 — Germany, 31 days, no drama, receipts inside in c/dosinglogs · 26 points · 6 months ago
the people still updating at week 64 are the reward
comment on anyone else notice bloodwork kicking in around week 75 in c/bloodwork · 13 points · 6 months ago
ferritin tanks quietly on a reduced appetite, check it
comment on my ALT moved and I cannot work out whether A1c is why in c/bloodwork · 144 points · 6 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 97.6, not 98.6.
Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.
comment on what changed for me between week 50 and week 4 in c/sideeffects · 45 points · 6 months ago
Not to be pedantic but constipation and gallbladder are being used interchangeably and they are not interchangeable in real life.
comment on am I the only one who found fertility harder than the injections in c/glp1women · 1 points · 6 months ago
the cycle tracking data matters, keep it private
comment on am I the only one who found fertility harder than the injections in c/glp1women · 4 points · 6 months ago
fertility signal is there but unclear

the trials mostly studied men, perimenopause skipped
-84
am I the only one who found fertility harder than the injections
Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud. The advice on perimenopause in this community changed substantially around the start of last…
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about nausea until somebody posts a number in c/sideeffects · 0 points · 7 months ago
IANAD and neither is anyone upvoting this
Adding to this: sulphur burps is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on my TSH moved and I cannot work out whether area percent is why in c/coa · 10 points · 7 months ago
Yeah, 96.8% area is not the problem, the missing impurity breakdown is the problem.
comment on the denial question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/insurancefights · 95 points · 7 months ago
Yeah, the denial code matters, it tells you what to fight.

Removed a chain here. The rule is one line long and it is not negotiable.
