Retatrutide Fatigue/Sleepiness

[Foggy-Hollow]

Male here. Dang, I knew that would be important to add, thought I went back and edited that info, guess not. Typically my estrogen comes back at 37 to 40, the time I felt so bad on Reta it came back at 11.4.

I guess theoretically reta could lower estrogen by reducing fat-mediated conversion of T to E, but I never lost enough weight for that to take place. I will try reta again in the future and get bloods taken again regardless of how I feel.

This is VERY interesting.

I just joined a female HRT + GLP -1 sub (I am F48 on HRT - estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) and the women there are saying their E tanked too on GLPs. 1-2 said their T spiked (not all female HRT for us includes T). I don’t recall offhand which GLP-1.

My provider treats to symptoms but watches blood levels for ratios.

Was your T higher than expected?

I asked the Peptide Whisperer himself, Hunter Williams with his wife Taylor, on this morning’s YouTube live, about this exact question and they suggested adding NAD+ and MOTS-C into my stack. Since I already take NAD+, I shall be adding MOTS-C into the research. Let’s hope I get my energy levels back up. If not, I might go back to Tirzepatide.



ANY THOUGHTS FRIENDS? 🤔

How has the Mots-C worked for you? and the Nad+?

I haven’t tired MOTS-C yet and I am doing NAD+ and found no freedom from the fatigue demons. LOL.. Have you tried it?

No I was going to do the SS-31 first since I am older and definitelyhave Mito damage..but its on the list for right after that.

The reason people feel sluggish on these drugs is because you aren’t eating. Other peps might give you a boost but it’s artificial. We really need to focus on what we are consuming and that we have a balanced diet. We are starving ourselves on purpose here to lose weight. The GLPs just make us not think about it.

Forgive me for fangirling, but I just gotta say thank you. I snuck over here a couple of months ago (TikTok of course) and I started watching your comments on here. Gave me great direction. I don’t talk on here or come here much more at all. But I gotta say you’re so helpful! I figured it was a sign since I love pandas or something lol so uh, I guess I gotta thank you because my body is much happier two months in lol
