My nonpartisan observation is that I have little expectation of improvements in this area.

I don't think this can be discussed without knowing more about your specific goals and risk tolerance and budget. For example I chose reta as my first GLP-1, because I was interested in its allegedly superior performance... And I don't need the superior appetite suppression of sema. Food noise...

I just started reta and have BPC arriving next week so I am very curious myself...

Everyone has an opinion on what will happen, but no one knows for sure. I plan to stock up. Not an apocalypse-proof amount, but a year or so.

Heat rises yeah, but the actual coldest spot will depends on where the cooling is actually happening and the layout. I can freeze something in my kitchen fridge if I put it right against the vents in the back where cold air comes in, but an item on a lower shelf away from airflow does not...

I have a few thoughts. First, any fridge has warmer and colder spots. I would get a decent fridge thermometer and see if there is a place in your fridge thats tays the 36-40F range. You only need a small spot at the right temperature, right? For example...

Feeling smart for having ordered some things recently. Feeling dumb for not having ordered more things long ago.

I had very strong suppression for about 2 days, then my appetite started to return. It's still about half of normal. Not what I expected from what I read about reta. But, we all get a different ride, I guess.

You need to figure out the dose you want, in milligrams. We can't exactly provide that since it's a personal decision. Then with the weight of product in the vial you can calculate how much BAC to add to get that dose into an appropriately sized syringe. Once you do more reading the...

Very interesting! Did you stick with it, or ... ?

Quoted for truth. @Chawolf get on their Telegram and if you are waiting for something to come back in stock, monitor the announcements. The pre-sale price, if offered -- it isn't for everything -- can save you a lot. Pre-order pricing on popular items sells out fast so you need to move fast too...

My wife is on sema, but she wanted to try reta, and I started it with her. The first 2 mg poke was 2 days ago. Overnight my desire to eat anything at all vanished. I do not have a problem with "food noise" but I could use some now, because eating just turned into a chore. I have to figure this...

I feel attacked

I almost did, just enter a couple of things like the med name, vial weight and amount of bac. :)

I've updated my freezer tracking tool to make it easier to track important stuff like cap & seal color, lot, vial age, and best of all... Amount used and remaining. Get your copy at the link above.

I did a simple value analysis and posted it elsewhere. Of course, this can only assess generalities. People have different responses to these meds. https://quallіgator.com/threads/sema-tirz-or-reta-and-why.1324/#post-23573 If you want to compare prices I encourage you to make a spreadsheet...

I noticed something interesting last time I tried it. My first dose was 1.0 mg. I had a small but obvious reaction at the site and a couple hours of flushing and warmth. There was some obvious "performance enhancement." It was kind of weird and fun but nothing wild. A week later, 1.25 mg...

I feel like it does cost too much in regulatory burdens to get a new drug to market, but at the same time I really appreciate that it's unlikely a new drug will make all of my skin peel off. I don't know what the solution is.

I'm interested in TRT because I'm old, and who isn't interested in feeling better, but I'm not at all comfortable with doing it myself. My T level is in the "normal" range and I don't really have symptoms of low T like ED, so my doctor is not really interested in prescribing anything. And I'm...

I have a different perspective. The sema let you lose weight, a thing you had not been able to do before even with intensive diet changes. Losing weight allowed you to get the heart surgery you needed and that got you off a bunch of meds. Wow! That's a GREAT outcome. As payment, you lost some...

For something I can drink gallons of, I like weak iced tea. I use Constant Comment decaf, and I just put a splash of concentrate into a glass of ice water. It doesn't have much flavor but it's enough.

OP could be a troll or an advertiser, but if they are a real person I am glad they received some help.

"Use one weird trick to keep your compounding pharmacy open! FDA regulators hate this!"

Quoted for truth! Pioneers get the arrows.

I think the guidelines are not more than twice in a week. Some advise not more than 3x in a month -- though I cannot find a primary source on that, it may be internet nonsense. Regardless, I'd definitely take a break of at least a few days before trying again.

Thought experiment: If every drug that currently exists was made very affordable by law, but the price was no new drugs were ever developed because the pharma was damaged and could not afford research ... Would we be better off, or worse off in terms of life expectancy and quality of life...

Before you spend money on a power system, find a way to actually measure how the temperature in the freezer changes when it loses power. There are inexpensive weather stations with temp sensors that can live in a freezer, for example. There are also temp logging devices, that you could put...

I updated the reconstitution and dosing calculator I made so that it can also track your personal freezer stash of up to 35 items. I also increased the number of custom products you can use from 1 to 25. You can easily define a custom product on the DOSES tab by entering its name and up to 6...

Fortunately I have grey sema on hand now so we will definitely not hesitate to cut over if it starts looking dicey. I was really surprised to get that one vial.

Lyophilized peptides are supposed to be stored under vacuum, right? Maybe that vial lost its seal and the product was exposed to the air during storage. But we get oxygen exposure after reconstitution, too, so I would not expect that to totally clobber potency. Very interesting, I'd like to...

Man, things gonna get interesting. (Why do you get an extension if you are a bigger company? If anything it ought to be the reverse, a bigger business is more likely to weather a loss in revenue.)

AFAIK it's the forum software that disallows that by default. You can pay to unlock that feature, or maybe it's a paid plugin. (This came up on another XenForo forum that I use.)

Before I started the grey world research, we got my wife started on compounded sema from one of the big name boutique clinics. It wasn't toooo expensive for the first 3 months, so my project was figuring out the grey world before her dose increased and the price became bananas. ANYWAY -- They...

1. Donate to cancer research. 2. Cancer is cured! 3. You get cancer. 4. You cannot afford the cure. The system works!!1

IMHO we're all still participating in the same capitalist system. By going grey we are saying, "that official product is too expensive." Either way, the big guys lose the sale. Hopefully, the total amount of non-buyers causes price corrections and competition. We're all in the system, unless...

You are welcome, I hope it's useful. But really, really, keep your head screwed on and check the math. I don't think there are any errors... But make sure you understand it before you believe it. :)

What do we have to do to get privs to post in Vendor Connection as a regular user? I wanted to post a question following a vendor's post, but I don't have the privileges yet. Can I track my progress towards that? I've been a good boy so far, honest.

This is fair. I made an edit.

My first order ever was with them and it was smooth. Of course, as @geoguy78 pointed out... I found other options that would have saved some dough right after I placed my order. I can't say if the sema I got is any good as it is still in the freezer, but I had seen enough testimonials --...

I STRONGLY support OR CONDEMN the current thing that MAY OR MAY NOT be happening, WHATEVER it is OR IS NOT, and WHOEVER IS or IS NOT responsible. Thank you, and may Gort blargh America. 🦅

It almost certainly is, but since using the gear just takes flipping a switch... I'm gonna do it. :)

I'm still in the research/freezer stocking phase and have yet to reconstitute, but I am looking forward to it. When I do, I will do the work at my laminar flow workbench which I use for culturing gourmet mushrooms. This device creates a gentle flow of sterile air, giving you a semi-magical...

Cooll, thanks. I updated it to 2-4-6-8-10-12 for reta. It's easy to change if needed. (And everyone can put their own custom dosing tiers in anyway.)

When I looked into reta dosing I had a hard time finding a consensus as with sema. If there is a less wrong set of numbers I can use I am happy to update it.

Down the road I may set it so that visitors can edit the file, but I'd then have to protect almost every cell other than the few places you are supposed to customize. It would be a different kind of PITA for everyone.

I wanted a different way to view vial options and calculate doses, so I made a spreadsheet. Some of you may be interested in using it too. While the spreadsheet is large, it only asks you to think about TWO NUMBERS... The amount of product in a vial (in mg) and the amount of bac used (in mL)...

Red light therapy is very interesting. It sounded like pure snake oil when I heard about it, but I was surprised to see there was real science behind it. I have not used it for hair -- there is no hope for this balding old dude -- but it has been good for my skin and some aches and pains. I...

I'm considering HK for my next order. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Please keep the reports coming!

Long shot, but... Since you just moved is there anything new or different in your physical routine? Different furniture, sleeping setup? I ask because I had this problem once... Weird numb patches on my shins. I was about to go to the doctor, then I realized... I had been using a new knee...
